I've never heard of him either. Reminds me of when I was in a sailing club, one of the members died so we purchased a bench and arranged for a brass plaque with his name etc on it.
The company doing the plaque phoned and said they could do it for half the quoted price if we were willing to have the plaque with someone elses name on the reverse that had been rejected because of a spelling mistake or something. We agreed and of course once the plaque was screwed to the bench the other name was gone, gone but not forgotten. Every year at the annual dinner dance, we'd raise a glass and toast the chap who the bench was dedicated to, but we'd also toast the chap whose name was on other side of the plaque, whoever he was.
