Hi, Have found some more information on William Forrest. William was born 1864 - third child of Robert (Robin) Forrest and Honora Cashman. He married Margaret Russell July 1894 in the Parish of Sts Peter & Paul, Cork. William's occupation is stated as Traveller (? Commercial Traveller)
Can't find date of death.
How far would a Traveller travel?
Thanks for any further info.

Looks like you are tracing the Forrest Family as well - Mary Forrest was my Grandmother. Let me know if I can help! I have some information on William. As far as the Morrow family goes I've been researching them for 30 years so have quite a bit of information. She (Mary) was married to Edgar.
