Hi Janet/John  :)

I'm descended from a Denis Forrest of Hollyhill, Cork.  I transcribed all entries from the Whitechurch Parish records between 1827-1845 which contained the name Forrest if its of any interest (including a John baptised 1830).

Would love to share (ie. pilfer  ;)) info on the family.

Regards,
Simon
Wexford.

Hi Janet62
I know this post is years after your original message - so sorry, I have only just seen it.

I think we are from the same family... please see my attached family tree jpg.  The John Forrest at the bottom was my grandad.

Best wishes
