“I’m delighted to provide a reference for Tony Ferguson as a U3A speaker. I am co-convener of the Chalfonts U3A family history group.

His performance was polished, and he is a fluent and charismatic speaker. I have recommended him to other groups and they have been delighted with his talks.” Marguerite Fletcher 2025.
About Their Talks...
Retiring in 2019, Tony conducted extensive research into the Battle of the Somme, the Irish War of Independence and the Irish Civil War, culminating in three books which tell the quite incredible story of his grandfather in the series “Andy Symington: Tyrone’s Most Wanted Man”.
Andy Symington volunteered to join the Royal Irish Fusiliers in 1916. Over the next seven years, he participated in the Battle of the Somme, the Irish War of Independence and the Irish Civil War, a trilogy of military service experienced by fewer than sixty men.
