FORSYTH
« on: Friday 27 April 07 00:07 BST (UK) »
Hi,

I am trying to trace this family in Ayrshire.

From the Marriage  Notices from the Wigtownshire Free Press, I know the following:

FORSYTH, Archibald - M23/1/1845 - At All Saints' Church, Birmingham, by the Rev. Mr Monsley (Mousley), Archibald Forsyth, Esq., draper, Birmingham, and youngest son of Archibald Forsyth, Esq., Corwarrhill, by Newton-Stewart, to Janet, eldest daughter of William Mardoch, Esq., Websterleggat, by New Galloway. (Archibald Forsyth to Jessie Murdoch on January 23, 1845 at All Saints, Birmingham, Warwick as per the IGI)


I am trying to trace Archibald FORSYTH Esq.

Any assistance would be most welcome.

Thanks
