Everton FC Heritage Society have made a new film about the life of Thomas Keates, an early director of Everton FC, and author of the first history of the club, published in 1929.
Written and presented by EFCHS member Jamie Yates, he was inspired to delve further into Keates’ past after discovering his damaged headstone in Anfield Cemetery while working on another project.
We hope this will be the first of many more heritage films about Everton Football Club, as several more are already in the planning stage.
Films are easily accessible via our YouTube Channel link on the main menu above.
