Dear Ed, I AM trying to find my Great Uncle Patrick Hogan, who is my Grandad James (Jim) Hogan’s younger brother. It is my Grandad’s 80th Birthday on April 8 and it would be brilliant if we could find Pat before then. There is also some sad family news to tell him

Dear Ed,

I AM trying to find my Great Uncle Patrick Hogan, who is my Grandad James (Jim) Hogan's younger brother.

It is my Grandad's 80th Birthday on April 8 and it would be brilliant if we could find Pat before then. There is also some additional sad family news we need to tell him.

Pat, also known as Paddy, was the East London Advertiser deputy editor at one time.

He was born in 1937, so would now be about 72, and was married to Jean with three children, Sharon, Wendy and Keith.

Patrick lived in Bethnal Green, but moved to Hackney. He may still be living in Hackney.

We would appreciate any information, no matter how big or small.
