Message Board Post:
Hello. My name is James D. Colbourne. I'm seeking information of my Great, Great Grandfather, James Colbourne. He was born in England, and apparently (from what I've been told) became the Mayor of Brighton in the early 1900's. I know his son and my Great Grandfather, also James Colbourne, came to America and settled in New York. He died in 1939 or 1940 of a heart attack. My Grandfather, again a James Colbourne, passed on in 1983, so the availibility of personal information from family members is very limited to me. Any information is greatly appreciated! Much thanks,
Jim
