Hi Chris: Yes, send me a copy of this Bolton article. I don't know if I knew this one, but I went to school to Bolton teacher, had Bolton classmates with some during the 1930s, and a cousin from my MOORE Line married a Bolton. I'll send you my address on the other message or if you scan, that is probably OK.
