John Lennon

George Harrison would have attended Dovedale Primary School from approximately 1948 to 1953.

John Lennon was born on October 9, 1940.

He would have been 72 years of age.

His wife was Yoko Ono who was with him when he was assasinated by a 'fan' in 1980. Mark David Chapman claimed he was a massive fan of Lennon and shot him so he could be always connected to him in a way, he is still in prison

John Lennon married to Cynthia Powell in 23 August 1962 John Lennon married to Yoko Ono in 20 March 1969

John at first lived with his first wife Cynthia and their son Julian until he met Yoko Ono. He and Yoko were eventually married and they lived together with Yoko's daughter Kyoko (at times). When John moved to New York, he and Yoko lived together except for an 18 month separation in which John lived with girlfriend May Pang. John then went back to Yoko. They soon had a son, Sean whom John lived with until his death in 1980.

Nearly six years, from their initial signing with him in January 1962 until his death in August 1967.

John Lennon played 9 instruments. He sang, played the guitar, played the piano, played the harmonica, the harmonium, the electric organ, the slide guitar, and a six string bass. The first instrument he ever learnt was the banjo.

Largely, yes - although they never wrote together after 1969. Paul visited John quite regularly in the 1970s; Paul has said that it was him who persuaded John to go back to Yoko after the "lost weekend" and shortly after that, Lennon gave an interview to the BBC in which he said that he and Paul were fine - he also gave a sort of apology for "How do you sleep?" - which attacked Paul, saying that he realised now that the song was about John rather than Paul. It was the birth of Sean Lennon in 1975 that drew the two men closer as they both had young children.

Now, pop singers get murdered.

Whether corn flakes were John's favorite food is debatable. In his solo years, John would often order corn flakes with cream as his breakfast when he stayed at hotels. But he often just ordered tea and toast. John maintained a macrobiotic diet during those years, preferring grain products to standard breakfast fare such as bacon and eggs. During the Beatles' era, John wrote two songs related to corn flakes: "I Am The Walrus" had one line about "sitting on a corn flake", and the song, "Good Morning, Good Morning" was inspired by a jingle for a British corn flake cereal commercial.

The evening of July 15, 1958, when she was struck and killed by a drunk driver, who turned out to be an off-duty policeman. (He was acquitted at trial.) Seventeen-year-old John had to go with the police, to identify her body. She was 44 years old.

John, who idolized Bridget Bardot as a teenager, finally met her in 1968.

According to Pete Shotten, John's boyhood friend, John told him, "I was so nervous that I dropped some acid before we went in and got completely out of my head. The only thing I said to her all night was 'Hello,' when we went to shake hands with her. Then she spent the whole time talking in French with her friends, and I could never think of anything to say."

John was in

1. Hard Day's Night

2. Help

3. How I Won the War

4. Magical Mystery Tour

5. Let It Be

6. Imagine, filmed at his Tittenhurst Mansion in England.

And, of course, all four Beatles appeared at the very end of Yellow Submarine.

As early as 1964 he had grown tired of the notoriety that came from being one of the Beatles; he told longtime friend Pete Shotton "I've sold my soul to the Devil", as a way of describing his dissatisfaction. It was easier to stay than go, though, until Yoko Ono convinced him he'd be happier walking away from the band.

Paul McCartney wrote 'Step inside Love' for Cilla Black in 1967 as the theme for her TV variety show. Cilla released it as a single in 1968 and it was a big hit and is one of her most well-known tunes. 'Step Inside Love' is still credited as by Lennon/McCartney

Sir Elton John has always been very private and thus, little is known about his childhood, but just bits and pieces:

He was born in Pinner, Middlesex and named Reginald Kenneth Dwight on March 25, 1947 to Sheilah Eileen (nee: Harris) and Stanley Dwight both in the music industry. Stanley was a trumpet player and played in smaller bands and both parents loved to collect records which introduced Elton John to all styles of music. At the age of 4 his mother encouraged her son to play piano. He attended Pinner County Grammar School until he left at 15 to pursue his love to become a rock star. His father tried to discourage this, but there was no stopping his son. His parents eventually divorced and Elton John struck out on his own.

George lucas graduated in 1962, the exact date, i believe should be june 14.

After the hiatus of the break-up had died down, all the Beatles were one reasonably good terms and kept in contact with each other. Lennon recorded with Harrison and Starr and occasionally met up with Paul. Lennon never recorded with McCartney, but there does exist a bootleg recording of Lennon and McCartney playing together in 1974. It's purely of historic interest only. _____ Not actively, after his 1975 reconciliation with Yoko Ono, and the dissolution of the Beatles's business partnership. Paul McCartney went through a period of turning up at the Dakota unannounced; Lennon visited with him a time or two, but turned him away on a subsequent visit, telling him "The old days are over." (He wasn't rejecting McCartney; he simply preferred that he call before he came by.) Lennon was upset with Harrison for being conspicuously absent from Harrison's autobiography I Me Mine, and was in no hurry to speak to him after it was published. Ringo Starr nursed a drinking problem from the 1960s to the late 1980s, and Lennon didn't want to be drawn into that. (He had had enough, drinking with Starr and Harry Nilsson in Los Angeles a couple years earlier.) Go Solo.

John Winston Lennon's parents were Alfred Lennon and Julia Stanley. His grandparents were John(Jack) Lennon, Mary "Polly" Maguire, George Ernest Stanley and Annie Millward and it's around these four grandparents that this tree is based. This page will cover The Lennons and other pages will cover the Stanleys, Maguires and Millwards

No. The song "Imagine" was not the last song John Lennon wrote. In fact, he released the song "Imagine" on his 1971 album titled "Imagine" as well. The last song that John Lennon worked on upon the time of his death was his wife Yoko Ono's song "Walking On Thin Ice". The last song that John Lennon actually released himself was "I Don't Wanna Face It," released on wife Yoko Ono's mesh of unreleased Lennon/Ono songs after the time of John's death. John Lennon died on December 8, 1980, and wife Yoko Ono released the last album containing new, original Lennon songs (Milk and Honey) on January 27, 1984.

John Willard Marriott was born on September 17, 1900.
