The picture of Gault in the database is incorrect. Attached is a copy of Henry's photo. Gault was a former top ranking bantamweight who won the North American Bantamweight Title in 1952. He was born William Henry Gault, Jr. on February 8, 1929 in Spartburg, SC. His mother passed away when he was two years old and he was raised by his father Walter, Sr. It was from his father that he acquired the nickname "Pappy." His father used to be called "Pappy" and eventually his friends started calling young Walter "Pappy" as well. He was an outstanding amateur, going 63-4, and winning the National Golden Glove Flyweight title in New York in 1948. He was an alternate on the 1948 U. S. Olympic Team.
