Editorial research draft. These candidate profiles retain the supplied evidence and review notes. Uncertain identities and claims require resolution before public use. Inclusion does not imply cemetery burial.
Joe Lannon
Connection through Matilda MacDonald and the Naufrage family described on p.77
McQuaid p.77 associates Matilda with Joe Lannon Jr and calls the son a famous boxer. The author’s corrections instead say Matilda married Joe Lannon, a Hall of Fame boxer. These are competing descriptions of where the boxer belongs in the family. The National Police Gazette’s announcement lists Joe Lannon in the Bare Knuckle Boxing Hall of Fame class of 2018.
Evidence: McQuaid Ch.6 p.77, directly inspected; author’s corrections p.2 entry for book p.77; REF-0732; National Police Gazette announcement.
Review: Boxer and honour documented externally; exact family placement unresolved. The inherited 1918 induction date and USA Boxing Hall wording should not be repeated as established facts.
Angus Dan MacDonald
Hermitage and Monticello community life
Remembered as Angus Dan the boxer, a boxing enthusiast who demonstrated techniques and supplied memorable stories for neighbours. The recovered comments include a Monticello School debate anecdote from 1933.
Evidence: McQuaid Ch.5 p.73 in recovered comments; PC_190 and REF-2942.
Review: Local character, not a verified professional or champion boxer. Resolve the two archive identities before adding a person-profile link.
