His parents were Henry Forbes and Dorcas Holmes. I'm not clear about the father of Angus either. I think they were back in Rockbridge Co. for the 1870 census. I belive it says Augustus Forbes, 48, Angeline 45, James 25, Elizabeth 18,Virginia and Henry 17 (listed as twins), Franklin and Sarah 15 (also twins)-the poor woman! John 13, George 11, Susan 10, Mary 5, Martha 2, and Thomas an infant. In the 1850 Rockbridge census there was a Henry Forbes, age 3, with Angeline Bennington Forbes parents. What is you Forbes Family? Judi
