"I am trying to get information about my Great Uncle, the boxer Young Ahearn, his birth name was Jacob Woodward, born Preston, Lancs, in 1892.
He was supposed to have married my Great Aunt Violet Varey who had booked passage on the RMS Titanic but she missed the train and the Titanic. I can find his boxing matches on the internet but nothing about his life. I would be pleased if any reader has any information."
