However my mother was Doris Boulby (not Burn) and my Father was Philip. We used to visit Uncle William when I was a boy and he used to insist on shaking hands with me as he realised I did not like shaking 2 fingers. I have made contact with the family of my Aunt Minnie Boulby and Uncle Edward Boulby - Ernest Boulby, their brother, was Purser on SS Normandie. I have lots of papers and emails from Boulby's which I can scan and send to you if you would let me have your postal address. You could then make contact with the direct. Hope this helps John Philip Lawson PS I may have inadvertently attached a file which will be of no interest to you - at 82 am getting past it which is another reason why I would rather do things by post.
