Surnames: Forbes Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/EEX.2ACIB/753 Message Board Post: In the 1856 commercial listing, my great great great grandfather, Charles FORBES, is listed as Barrister, 3 Elm Court, Middle Temple Lane, London. (No residence address unfortuntely.) There is also an Alexander Clark FORBES, esq, 1 Hare Court, Temple, whose residence was 12 Old Burlington Street (next to Saville Row), London. Are they related - brothers or father and son or uncle and nephew, etc? Any help would be most welcome. Thanks Julie
