Is it just a coincidence, or these two men related?

The late Neville Hinton who was formerly the Norton Owners Club Librarian & Historian and the late Henry Frederich 'Harry' Hinton who was Australian GP racer & Works Norton Rider.

Also, can anybody provide me with any historical information regarding Harry's father and two uncles who ran Hinton Bros motorcycle business in Newtown, Sydney, Australia?

I sincerely hope that that little Possum doesn't have a court order or has enforcers ready to recover whatever from the Hinton's...sheesh!

Don't get me wrong, but how about we tread a little more carefully with living people's privacy :rolleyes:

Wow!, I didn't think of that...

I am just trying to write an article with some factual basis; rather than just making it up, as seems to be the preferred way these days.
