    1. [MOSCOTLA] William Forrester
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Forrester, Fetters, Northrup, Wishart, Mulch Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/RMB.2ACE/537 Message Board Post: William Forrester married Narcissus VanZant ca 1833 in Franklin Co., TN. William was born in KY, I believe Barren Co., but have not been able to verify. One of their daughters was Mary Jane (AKA Polly) who married John Fetters. They are my gg-grandparents. Narcissus and William are buried in Forrester Cemetery (along w/Northrups). Polly and John Fetters are buried in Ft. Donaldson (along w/Northrups). My interest is getting more data on William Forrester to verify his lineage. I have checked out his Will for coat tail relatives, but only his wife and children are listed. I know he was a slave holder and he was mentioned in John Fetters Autobiography. There are still Forrester descendants in Scotland Co. and I was hoping that there may be a family bible and other documents in their possession that could help. There is also a possibility that George Forrester is a relative of William's. His wife's family was very well established and properous in Franklin Co., TN. This begs th! e question why move to SC and end up living by George Forrester, who was an early settler in SC? Any input is appreciated
