There is a biographical and autobiographical tradition on my mother’s (Jewish-Russian) side of the family.
My grandfather Shmuel Eisenstadt wrote a book about his father and my mother Pnina Deadman compiled a book about her father Shmuel and for good measure wrote her own mini-biography and put both on this website.

Did you go to West Square school at the Elephant & Castle and did you play football for Dulwich Hamlets.
Regards. Jeff Deadman
Absolutely not, but I didi grow up in Beckenham – not that far from E&C
My cousin Peter Deadman played for Dulwich Hamlet. We are related to the Lambeth Deadman family that were Wheelwrights in Commercial Road and Cornwall Rd. Regards Alan Deadman (Islebof Wight)
Hi Alan. That’s my brother’s name by the way. I don’t know of a connection but I have a cousin who knows more about the family history than I do and will ask her. best wishes, Peter
