Have you tried Scotlands People?

Yes , but no luck . I do not have his exact date of birth only the year. I am really stuck on this one !
He shows up in the 1841 Scottish Census with wife Ann and children Ann, David and Mary. Again in 1851 birth is shown as 1799 in Glentamer. Ann is a widow in 1861 so John died between 1851 and 1861. In Scotlands People I did a search in Old Paris Registers fro Forbes John 1799 - 1799 Aberdeen and it threw up 2 records. They may or may not be your John Forbes but you need to buy credits to find out
Good Luck
Last week I joined Scotlands People and I already used up one set of credits just on John Forbes alone !!, But they are cheap and I have another set to use . I have not looked at the 2 entries I think I started going in the wrong direction with my search.
one of those two Johns might be what I've been trying to find ! Take care Melanie
