« on: Saturday 07 July 07 01:42 BST (UK) »
Trying to find:
David Forrest
Isabella

Children:
Marion 1863
Alexander 1865
William 1867 (may have died before 1871)
David 1870

I'm looking for David and Isabella's ages and places of birth.

Thanks for any help you can give me.

Thanks very much for looking this up and for doing it so quickly.
You've just thrown a mighty spanner in my works though.
I was under the impression David came from Slamannan. 
Back to the drawing board.

Could I impose on you to check earlier census records to ascertain whether David had a connection with Slamannan?

I'd really appreciate it.  Sorry if I'm being a bit presumptious.

I owe you bigtime Karenlee.
Thanks for doing this.
And the spanner is well and truly removed from the works.
This has put me back on track.
I'm delighted with this result and your help.
