Hi all
Just another update for you. I think I now have a comprehensive (or at least as detailed as I can muster) list of all the players who featured in 61-62 and were also involved in the squad during that time. Here it comes:

Alex Smith (lives in Bolton - contacted)
George Forrester (deceased)
Joe Walton (deceased - lived in Preston)
Bob Wilson (I believe he lives in Dundee - I've got a couple of contact details)
Garbutt Richardson
Alex Hamilton (deceased - lived locally)
Willie Devine (I heard he may be in Dundee)
Mike Ferguson (is living in Spain I believe)
George Hudson
Bill Smith (deceased - lived in Blackburn)
David Sturrock (lives in Dundee - contacted)
Lawson Bennett (deceased - remained local)
Paddy Mulvey (deceased - his son works at Man Utd. Am hoping to speak to him)
Jim Milner (moved back to the north east)
Russ Cuddihey (still local - I've got three different addresses and two phone numbers!)
Peter Irving
Mike Pickup (got an address in Congleton)
Barry Smith (deceased)
Bob Gordon (lives in Scotland. In the process of getting details - cheers Mab!)
Joe Hooley
Reg Bonson
Jack Wareing (still local? I have an address)
Les Christie
Brian Bades
Alan Gregory (last heard of running the White Lion pub in Burnley)
Joe Devlin (still local - I've got an address)
Dave Baron (still local - contacted)
Peter Vipham (possibly lives in Rossendale)
Graham Lord (also possibly in Rossendale)

The last three didn't make any appearances, but were considered part of the squad then so will be considered that way now too. Macca, any names I'm missing?

Do any of these names ring a bell? (particularly those with no info next to them)

I'm particularly keen to find relatives of those who were local but are no longer with us (Bill Smith, Lawson Bennett, Alex Hamilton, Joe Walton)

I'm going to be sending out stuff to local press and also papers in specific areas where I think the players may be (David Sturrock rang me after his cousin read a piece in the paper in Dundee!)

Long post, but hopefully some of it is interesting.
