Minnie often had to go in the pub on a Friday evening and get her housekeeping money from him before he spent it, he used to sheepishly follow her home. He was a well known identity in Scarborough. (Nellie Jenkinson nee Dixon's memories) He was living with his daughter Elsie Richardson Dixon, at 1 High Walk Scarborough, when he died
