Lanarkshire / Re: Forrest - Carluke
« on: Saturday 18 August 18 15:46 BST (UK)  »
Hi JulieLanark
So sorry that this has taken so long. I am directly descended from George and Isabella's son John. It's been a while since Ive looked at this branch. I'll need to refresh my memory. The Forrests are a bit of a nightmare because there are so many of them.

Hi I am researching a family of Forrests from Carluke. They are descended from George Forrest and Isabella Wilson. The same couple, I believe, that Rosinish mentioned.
In the 1871 Carluke census I have George and Isabella living with
James son unmarried aged 32
Georgina dau. unmarried aged 26
George son unmarried aged 22
Margaret or Mary Telford dau unm aged 22
Alexander son unm aged19
Robert son unm aged 16
Margaret Telford Forrest niece unm aged 22
Laurence Forrest Ritchie grandson ? age
Georgina Forrest Ritchie grand daughter aged 7

and in the house next door I have The other son John Forrest with his wife Catherine and their family.
Anyone else still researching this family? I would be pleased to hear from you and share

Hi, it would appear that I can't send a PM  yet because I haven't posted often enough. Just to let you know that I'm not ignoring you.  :)

Peter McGowan Rae and Maggie Rae nee McDonald were my great, great grand parents. I am descended from their daughter Jessie. I think Tom did emigrate to Canada and I may have some family photos. Sorry I can't access them just now will post tomorrow.
