John Gerrath's
Forbes Family Report

One more large family tree from Aberdeenshire, Scotland!
This time, it's the Forbes family. I haven't done too much with this line, and many thanks go out to those who have helped me piece it together. It appears to point into the ancestral areas of all Forbes families in Aberdeenshire, so if you have Forbes from the Aberdeen parishes of Cabrach, Clatt and that area, you may want to check over the following lists of people.

You might also want to check out my Anderson Family Info Page, and Gerrie Family Report.


As always, if you have any more information to add to this line, or happen to be a cousin,
I'd love to hear from you.
