Answer, the guy that reffed two Cup Finals was called Arthur Kingscott, from Sawley, Derbyshire. He reffed aroud 1900 and one of his finals ended in a draw and he reffed the replay as well.
He had a son, (they called him Arthur but it wasn't his proper name) he reffed a Cup Final in the 30s.
The old man was known as the man in black, he is buried in the churchyard at Sawley.
