My name is Charline, I am looking for my Grandmother's family in Samoa. My Grandmother's father's name was John Bourne who came from Apia in Western Somoa. He travelled to the Torres Strait Islands and married a native from there back in the late 1800's or early 1900's. John Bourne and wife had several children my grandmother's name was Rizah Bourne, her eldest brother was sent back to Apia his name was Maurice Bourne. If anyone has any information please I look forward to hearing from you.
