FORSTERS OF LISNASKEA
« on: Tuesday 24 May 16 07:22 BST (UK) »
      Martin Forster and Jane Beacom are my GG Grandparents. I have found their gravestones, erected by their son Robert, in the graveyard at the Holy Trinity Church of Ireland in Lisnaskea. I am fourth generation Australian. I'm hoping the others can add to this beginning about the Irish family history.

Yes. He is the only Martin Forster I found in the Cemetery unless you know of another.
