Hi All does any have Foresters in their tree from Kilsyth North Lanarkshire i think it was once Stirling?
I have a vast tree of my 5 x Great Grandmother Mary Dempsey Forester family goin back to 1400s i was curious to know if any other Roots chatters have come across them whilst researching or may be able to help with any info or advice where to look would be great thank you
Kindest regards

Yes, Kilsyth is in the historic County of Stirling aka Stirlingshire, so records older than 50 years ago will come under that county.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.
