I've only posted what I could find......it may not actually be for the right people.

You'd need to get a birth cert, to verify the mother's first name............

1911 census.....not the marriage, I know!

FORREST CHARLOTTE ANNE F 1863 48 Darlington Durham
FORREST LOTTIE F 1903 8 Darlington Durham
FORREST MARY ELLEN F 1887 24 Darlington Durham
FORREST ROBERT PARKER M 1891 20 Darlington Durham
FORREST ROBERT ROBINSON M 1862 49 Darlington Durham
FORREST JOHN ALFRED M 1909 2 Darlington Durham

You'd need to view the image or transcription to find how the relationships worked out. That requires the purchase of credits.

No births for Forrest with MMN Kirkup

Was Jessie married previously?

I'm assuming the man's surname is Forrest.....not Forres.

Please confirm........
