My thanks to everyone for trying to solve my enquiry about Peter and Francis FORRESTER.    Sadly, and I hate having to admit the possibility, it seems I have hit that infamous "genealogical brick wall", knowing full well the answers are there......but where

In the circumstances Peter and Francis FORRESTER are being consigned to the "pending tray".

For the moment,
