 He was a resident of Pittsburgh, USA, in 1961 when he organised the founding of the Allegheny Region Porsche Club of America. (info - Porsche Club of America web site, from which the quote below is taken:
 The gathering [March 25, 1961] was organized by a relatively recent Pittsburgh resident... Shepperson Prescott Adkins. A South African native, Shep had become interested in automobiles at an early age, having seen the Type C 16 Cylinder Auto Union car race at the South African Grand Prix in Cape Town in 1936. He came to the U.S. in the mid-fifties and after settling in the Boston area, formed the Northeast Region of PCA. A move to Akron, Ohio, in 1959, and sure enough, an Akron Region of PCA was born.
