I have traced my family all coming into the Port of Boston in the early 1800's. How would I go about going futher. I know that John Forbes from Scottland married Sarah(no last name) from England. How do I get a ships manafest or marrage records from England. Any good direction would be great. Thank you, Bill

Dear Bill Have you found a death certificate or tombstone for John or Sarah? Those might give you a clue as to which part of Great Britain they came from. There are sites for passenger lists( I've never found ANY of mine on them yet, though) but you could check them. Go in to the site for Cindi's List and look for the Passenger Lists Site.Below is a siyte I've used. http://istg.rootsweb.com/index2.html Helen in Ontario ----- Original Message ----- From: <wjforbes@bellatlantic.net> To: <FORBES-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, July 26, 2001 9:41 AM Subject: [FORBES] forbes family > > > I have traced my family all coming into the Port of Boston in the early 1800's.
