Terry Major-Ball

Terry Major-Ball (2 July 1932 – 13 March 2007) was the elder brother of the former British Prime Minister John Major, who during his brother's seven-year premiership had a brief career as a television and radio personality and newspaper columnist. Despite the media attention, he always remained loyal and discreet.
==Early life==
Terry Major-Ball was born in 1932, and grew up in Worcester Park, Surrey. His father, Tom Major-Ball (real name Abraham Thomas Ball), was a music hall performer and circus artiste under the name Tom Major, and combined the two surnames when he started a garden ornament business. His mother, Gwen, Tom's second wife, was a dancer. Unlike his elder sister Pat and younger brother John, Major-Ball failed his 11 plus exam and went to Stoneleigh East Secondary Modern School.〔 During the Second World War, they were evacuated to Norfolk. After WWII, Major-Ball did National Service with the Royal Army Medical Corps in Germany.

After being demobilised, Major-Ball unsuccessfully tried to save his ailing father's business, ''Major's Garden Ornaments'', which was finally taken over by a competitor in 1962.〔 The family's reduced circumstances forced them to move into rented rooms in Coldharbour Lane in Brixton.〔 To supplement the family's income, Terry Major-Ball took many menial jobs. While working at Woolworths in Brixton in 1958, he met Shirley Wilson,〔 whom he married in 1960.〔 Major-Ball later became a meter installer for South Eastern Electricity Board and a banker.〔
