Hi my Grandmother was Mabel Boole I would love to know more and see if George Boole was a relative as my Dad was mad on maths, my sister studied maths at Cambridge and I was a maths teacher!

You’ve added to a very old post and it is highly unlikely that James will spot your post.

However, he still seems to be a member so click on his name and send him a pm. If he has kept his email address up to date, Genes will notify him.
