Alexander Forbes was my grandfather . I believe he was born in Co Londonderry in 1843 - 1845. he married Margaret louise in 1897 possibly in Gracehill moravian church.

Hi,
   I can find a record of Alexander Forbes who married Margaret Forbes  in Belfast (Shankill) Civil Registrars Office on 19 Jan 1897. The fathers names were John Forbes (for Alexander) and David Forbes (for Margaret).
