Jocelyn Lee

The “Normanie” docked in New York on June 28, 1937, having sailed from Southampton, England. Joselyn (Jocelyn) Seymour is one of the passengers as is her husband, James W. D. Seymour, both residents of Beverly Hills, California.  James gave his correct age of 42 but Jocelyn said she was 26 and was born on June 21, 1911 in Chicago.  Well, we know Jocelyn was born in Chicago but, of course, it was 1903.  So Jocelyn simply knocked off 8 years, but there is little doubt that this is indeed our Jocelyn.
