Surnames: Forbes Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/pBC.2ACE/4216 Message Board Post: Chaels R. Forbes lived in King County in and before 1920, and was the first director of the federal Veterans Bureau, on which I am doing historical research. His wife Kate, a writer, and daughter Marcia then aged 17, lived in the county in 1930 (US census). I am looking for any relatives of theirs or anyone who knew them. Help much appreciated.
