  • Hi, Philip. I'm a professional broadcaster looking into the possibility of making a documentary about Owney for BBC Radio 4. I would like to contact you. I'm not sure how this can be achieved without compromising your privacy or mine. Do you know if there is a way we can communicate using YouToube as an intermediary? This is a genuine inquiry and not a con.

  • My name is Philip Madden, I am the great grandson of Owney. I was born in New York state kingston i now live in Newcastle England with my grandmother (Jeanne Neild). She Met my grandfather Clarence Madden (son of owney) in the cotton club. If anyone has any information on other family it would be greatly appreciated

  • his parents were irish born and moved der durin famine

  • owney madden legend duke of the westside

  • @TheBroadyk I cant beleive that a ranking member of the new york underworld actually came from yorkshire. Weve always had crime but never on the scale of american organised crime. Nicked cars, smuggled cigs and booze from germany holland and belgium, smuggled heroin and pills, home grown grass, fraud, and prostituition is all there is and nobody runs it its a complete joke. Its like a market for criminals, people come to yorkshire sell and clear off to leefs, manchester or london.

  • owen madden was an astute bloke would have made it in whatever he chose to do

  • @hsybcmpny LOL Owney Madden was brilliant apparently he was shot 6 times and survived in an assasination attempt in his club The Cotton Club

  • @TheBroadyk Unlucky for you if they are. WE ALL HATE LEEDS WE ALL HATE LEEDS WE ALL HATE LEEDS WE ALL HATE LEEDS LOL

  • @hsybcmpny I do not know much of it, possibly I'll find out

  • Is your family from leeds?
