I cannot find them in 1940.  It appears that they were living in San Francisco in 1935, 1936 and 1937 (SF Directories).   They next appear in San Diego County in 1943.  I wonder where they were in 1940?   ???

According to the California death index, Virginia's maiden name was McManus.  Looking at the 1900 census, Virginia M McManus was living with her family, including James (father), Sarah (mother) and brother James M or N.

The 1930 census shows Sarah and James living in San Diego.  They are both widowed.  James was a carpenter (carpenter / house).

According to the California death index, Sarah passed away in San Diego in 1944.

Maybe Andrew and Virginia settled in San Diego to be near her mother?

Sarah and James were living in National City, San Diego in 1940.  James was a carpenter / PWA.  (Probably Public Works Administration.)

After a quick search, I do not see Andrew in National City (I was hoping he might be located near his mother-in-law.)

Virginia appears to be on Find a Grave - http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GSln=FOR&GSpartial=1&GSbyrel=all&GSst=6&GScntry=4&GSsr=881&GRid=73845291&

Maybe it would be worth contacting the cemetery to see if any other Forbes are with her?

Have you checked with the Cemetery to see if Virginia is buried with Andrew ?

http://www.rootschat.com/links/0ezt/

Shelly has found a City Directory entry for 1937 and there is a Naturalization for Andrew Anderson Forbes 29 July 1937.
The California Death Index starts in 1940 and he doesn'tt seem to be listed so perhaps died between 1937 and 1940.

Looks like soneone else is looking for info on Andrew - same person has tree on anc...
