Hay list, Don't know if this will help any one out there but I found a couple of names that were in my database so it was good for conferming info. This site has old books and docs and since my Forbes started here in the US in what is now New York. If your one of the others out there following this line you might take a look. http://cdl.library.cornell.edu/moa/ I found a bunch in the book on NY marriages. but there were lots more to hunt up the name Forbes in, ran out of time tonight.Good hunting.
