The Hadwen Family of Lancashire

According to his son's birth certificate, he was called Daniel (Danny) Kincaid, came from Stepney, East London, worked as a Fitter/Welder and was born in 1944. According to his marriage certificate he was born around 1934/1935.

He committed his first robbery at the age of sixteen and left for the East End of London soon after his father died. His family only ever saw him once after he left and that was to introduce them to Brenda and their children in Bournemouth during the early 1970's.

There have been many stories about Danny Kincaid, some of which include: he trained at Repton Boys Boxing School in Stepney, worked for 'Mad Frankie Fraser' ‘running errands’, fought as a Heavyweight Boxer at the Moscow Olympics, worked as a Stuntman in India, lived in the Himalayas and spent time at Parkhurst, Wormwood Scrubs, Albany and Dorchester Prisons, for crimes that include prostitution, extortion, robbery with violence and protection racketeering?!

About 1985, one of his sisters received a telephone call from David and an Indian lady regarding investment opportunities for a shop in London. She declined the offer and received a telephone call a few weeks later from the British Embassy in Greece. The 'official' gave notification of David's death in a car accident he had whilst driving home from a meal with friends. A few weeks later, an Indian lady made a request for financial help with the funeral arrangements but gave no other details. They haven’t been heard from since. There are no details of his death or burial site recorded in Greece, India or the UK.

Danny Kincaid hasn't been seen since 1976 but is believed to have committed offences as recently as 1997. Bromley Police believe him to still be alive.

He’s used many aliases. Hampshire Police list him as using the names: Peter Daniel Kincade, Daniel Vincent Kincaid, Danny Kincaid, Peter Daniel Kincaid, Michael McClennon and Michael McLennon. His fingerprints were entered into their database on04/11/2005.
