Anyone interested in John C Forrest (Bank in Hamilton) and the Logan family he married into, circa 1866?

Was he John Clark Forrest?  1883 Court of Sessions entry on Ancestry.  Died 1893 aged 60 mmn Clark

He is on various censuses to 1891.  Born Shotts Lanarkshire

Wife Jane Logan in 1861 - married 1857 - she was b 1837 Carnwath

What is your connection to the family?  Are you descended from one of their children?

Nothing conclusive from Surname Interests. JC Forrest did marry a Logan.  I have 9  signed letters  relating. (from solicitors clearance)  including, Swinton Manse, Coldstream -James Logan: Bank of Glasgow, Hamilton re key to John Logan's box and Mrs Logan's Testamentory Writings (will???): 2- from John Wilson to Hector re James Logan: 3 from Andrew Smith (John Smith's cousin is James Logan). Thought I would make them available to interested descendants/researchers
