When did John Lennon start The Quarrymen - NEW EVIDENCE!

When did John Lennon start The Quarrymen? We know it was sometime in 1956, but when exactly? And who was responsible for starting the Quarrymen? Who was George Lee?
New evidence has come to light to suggest when the Quarrymen were started, but how accurate can we be? We know that Rock Island Line by Lonnie Donegan was the catalyst for starting the skiffle craze in 1956, but Michael Hill, a school friend of John Lennon, also suggests a time when John first picked up a guitar.
With the help of Rod Davis, banjo player with The Quarrymen and resident Quarrymen historian, we examine new evidence that suggests an earlier date than we first thought.
