Alfred Lennon, (also knowns as Freddie Lennon), is the father of Beatle John Lennon

Alfred Lennon, (also knowns as Freddie Lennon), is the father of Beatle John Lennon.
Alfred (aged 55) is pictured here with 19 year old Pauline Cole, a former student of Exeter University, who he plans to marry.
Full interview with Alfred Lennon is in The Daily Mirror 6th January 1968, page 1 and back page 28, that says the following....
John Lennon has ended his feud with his father, who left the family home when John was only 4 years old. Alfred went to sea as a ships steward and later learned that his wife, Julia, had been killed in a road accident in 1958. In 1964, Alfred suddenly turned up and met John, who was now a famous Beatle.
Now in 1968, John has said on their silence and time apart, " we were both partially to blame. Thats why its taken all this time. We re getting to know each other. Through friends and relatives we got in touch. From now on I hope we ll be in closer contact all the time".
Alfred was living in a 10 pounds per week apartment in Richmond, South West London, and working as a **barman** (note to editor to check this fact) for 8 pounds per week in nearby Hampton Court. Just before Christmas, Alfred had been lying sick in bed, when a letter arrived from John Lennon with a wad of money notes inside. A few days later a chauffer-driven Rolls Royce arrived and took Alfred to Weybridge to see John and his family. Later he took Pauline to see John.
" He (John) thought she was great" said Alfred.
Pauline added " I ve met John several times now and he is very sympathetic" John told his father to rent a 14 pounds per week flat in Richmond and gave him weekly money to tied him over.
