FORBES, John; AB,CAN; c. 1900-1920 My grandparents, John Forbes and Emily James, lived near Edmonton c1900-1920 and had many of their children there. They even named one Alberta. John Forbes was an engineer and helped build the first electrical power plant there. The Forbes are related to the Swainsons that live west of Edmonton 20 or so miles (sorry 30 or so kilometers). Can you get us a contact for the Swainson family. There does not seem to be an online telephone directory for Alberta and there are no Swainsons that seem to have an email address in the area that I can find.
