"Forbes"
« on: Wednesday 16 September 09 18:47 BST (UK) »
Hi very knowledgeable people,
  William Faragher(1851-) Married to Margaret Creer(1857-), Called one of his sons "Forbes"(1884). William's Father Robert(1822) married to Mary Quine (1820) calls one of his sons "Forbes Quine"(1863).
 Robert's father is William(1791) and Elizabeth Callister(1796) .The trail ends
 I would like to know where the Forbes comes from as there appears to be very few of them in your census.
  Regards Frank

Hi Voirrey,
               Many thanks for your time,alas i have been through all the births and marraiges and no names came out that i could recognise. Thinking about it, it could have been any number of reasons.
  Again Thanks for your time.
    Regards Frank
