Thanks for all the details Dave. I had all the siblings but not some of the details on death dates and the husbands of the girls. I knew Annabella Dakers (Auntie Belle) personally as I lived in Montrose for a few years but I never met Alexander Forrest as he had died before I arrived in Montrose.

Hi Dave,

I see from your web site that you are also researching the MORE family. My wife's mother was Isabella Reid MORE b. 12 May 1913 in Maryhill, Glasgow dau. of Gavin Rankine MORE and Jessie McDONALD. I have very little more than this on this family. Do we have a connection here?

Hi Dave,

My name is Alexander Forrest MILNE. I am named after my father Alexander Forrest MILNE who was named after an uncle Alexander D. FORREST. Alexander FORREST b. abt 1875 in Montrose, Angus d. 14 Oct 1936 in Montrose, Angus married my gr-aunt Annabella Scott DAKERS b. 17 Feb 1874 in Montrose, Angus d. 26 Nov 1955 in Montrose, Angus. I have been told by family members that they had a son and grandson also named Alexander FORREST but I have no details on dates or places of birth. The parents of Alexander FORREST were John FORREST b. abt 1845 in Brechin, Angus and Helen DUNCAN b. abt 1848 in Dun, Angus.

Does any of this tie in with your FORRESTs?

Thanks Jean for the information on the JAFFRAY family.

I see that you are also researching the LEIGHTON family. My 3rd great grandmother was Mary LEIGHTON. The only information I have on her was her marriage to William BAIRD on 19 Nov 1809 in Montrose. Do we have a connection here?

Hello Jean,

I have an interest in Benholm as my gr-gr-grandmother Margaret JAFFRAY was born and lived in Benholm. I have no record of her death or the deaths of her parents or siblings. Do you have any JAFFRAYs buried in the Benholm Kirkyard? If there are I can provide further details on names and birth dates. Thank you for your efforts on this project.

Alex
