Timeline
Albert Firth's marriage to Peggy (née Geary) (birth registered first ¼ 1934 in Wakefield district – death unknown) was registered during third ¼ 1957 in Wakefield district.
Albert Firth (3 July 1937 – 5 January 2015), also known by the nickname of "Budgie", was an English professional rugby league footballer who played in the 1950s and 1960s.
He played at representative level for Yorkshire, and at club level for Stanley Rangers ARLFC, Wakefield Trinity (Heritage № 616), York and Leeds, as a, or , i.e. number 8 or 10, or, 11 or 12, during the era of contested scrums.
Albert Firth was born in Wakefield, West Riding of Yorkshire, England, and he died aged 77 in Osgodby, Scarborough, North Yorkshire, England.
"''Outlines – Albert Firth – Albert is one of many players on our present register who commenced his career as a member of the Wakefield City Schools' side. Unlike the majority, however he had to seek his Rugby League football at that stage, for his school in Stanley did not play Rugby. Whilst with the Wakefield City Schools' team he gained County honours against Cumberland. In those days he played in the forwards; a number of occasions being at loose forward. Schooldays over, he naturally joined his local team – Stanley Rangers – for whom he made several appearances at centre three-quarter. In whichever position he played, however, his work was so successful that Trinity secured his signature at sixteen years of age. Albert signed for Wakefield Trinity in July, 1953 and, after a short period in the "A” team, made his senior début in November, 1953 against Huddersfield here at Belle Vue.
There was another appearance in the senior team during that season, but in the following campaign he made his mark and from there he has not looked back.
Albert Firth made his début for Wakefield Trinity during April 1954, and he played his last match for Wakefield Trinity during the 1962–63 season, he was transferred from Wakefield Trinity to York in December 1962, and he was transferred from York to Leeds in October 1964.
In his first full season of 1954–5, he made thirty appearances and scored 13 tries – his most successful term until this present season.
In September he made his County début for Yorkshire against Cumberland at Hull and there are strong hopes that this will form only the first of many similar representative appearances.
Still only in his early twenties, with 127 first team appearances (and over forty tries) behind him, he still has much to give Trinity in the important seasons ahead.
The continuance of his career and the further fulfilment of much promise will be watched with interest and satisfaction''"
He later became a landlord at The Angel Inn, and other pubs in Scarborough, North Yorkshire, England.
They had children; Kim Firth (birth registered during first ¼ 1958 (age 66) in Wakefield district), and Cheryl Firth (birth registered during fourth ¼ 1959 (age 65) in Wakefield district).
