To the members of the Forrester Family.
This is your copy of the "House of Forrester",
We send this book to you with only one claim, ie it is only a starto
We have almost enough material and data in the association files to fill another
volume with the same number of pages as thiSo A good portion of this material came
to us too late to be incorporated in this volume one, an<J allow us to meet the delivery
dead line«
¥e are recommending to the members of the family, now in reunion, that we get out an
annual edition each year until the work is complete. It is our hope that the family
will elect to do this and that further research on the part of all of us, will enable
us to discover and connect up the missing links in the lineage of the several branches.
There are no doubt some errors In the present volume, even though we have checked and
rechecked several times. OuF system is designed, however in such a way that errors
and/or additions may be corrected in future editicnsof the work. Accordingly if by
chance we hive"' given you the wrong ancestor or the wrong heir-if you will notify the
association xrc v^ill try to correct the error,
¥e realize also that there is much interesting data about a number of persons which
should be included in future editions. Since we have established a format you can see
the kind of data we would like to recordo It is our desire to record not only lineage,
but also just enou^ intimate material to show future generations how our people lived,
what they did, and what their contributions were to the civilization of our time.
Accordingly when you send this information in send something short, pertinent and
descriptive of you, your branch, or your section of the country.
On order to carry on this work we will send out a reminder for annual dues of $U,00 per
year per person on 1 Jan, each year. Also on Jan, 1st 196? we will include a copy of
the by laws of the association adopted by the membership at the Current Reunion, We
will also include the names and addresses of the officers elected,
¥e hope you will like the book, if so write other Forresters about it and ask them to
order books right away. We printed 200 books more than were sold and these are available
on a first come, first served basis.

The Bugles call C*«*v»x..^ , C.^,.,^^^^
In this changing world of the twentieth century, there seems to be also a ^
change in our sense of direction, as well as a change in our sense of values.
Due to economic pressures and change of circum.stance brought about by
the machine age, families are being separated as never before. This trend
is accompanied by a correi5 ponding deterioration of family affections and the
ties that bind.
People throughout the land and all over the world seem to have lost their
recognjiion of the farrnly as being the basis of civilization.
Many years ago when mankind first appeared on earth, the family was, and
is today, the basic stabilizing institution in the society of men. It was in the
family that man's inherent instincts of character were developed. It was here
around the family hearthstone sharing the hardships of life that man learned to
love his fellows and to share with them the responsibilities of survival.
In return for these loyalties, the individual received the protection of the group,
but what is most important, he was endowed with a sense of "belonging" so
necessary to the well being of man.
These requisites, together with religion, have been the ballast down through
the ages to strengthening man's purpose in life and promoting progress in the
ethics of human behavior.
A. proper reflection on these inate precepts prompts the invitation to gather once
again around the "Old Mahogany Tree" and live again in the affections of our
fathers of so long ago. But as we gather at the trestle board of our sires, let
us partake of our heritage, of courage, wisdom and justice so profoundly
portrayed by the history of our people.
The Echoes Tell We Will Keep the Faith
The xnotivation for these presents stenas from our heed to the ancentral persuasion
of the bugle's call.
At the same tim.e, it is our hope that these transcriptions will never be complete.
We hope that the HOUSE OF FORRESTER will stand forever as a living symbol of
a great people who have made such worth Avhile contributions to the establishment
of all the important institutions in, the progress of mankind.
A.S this call is dear to us, so will it be to those who follow.
When we who toil here are reckoned as antiquity, our seed will honor their
fathers and keep their rendezvous with destiny and the everlasting challange of
TOMORROW,
SECTION ONE
FORRESTER COAT OF ARMS
The large coat of arms shown on the preceeding page is one of five
which have come down to us through many years since the origin of the nanae.
The first coat of arms is believed to have been very simple in design,
and was painted on the shield of ancient chieftains so as to identify them in
battle.
This coat of arms consisted mainly of an outline of a shield showing
three bugles. At the top was a scroll showing the family motto at that time,
which was , "Hunter - Bla-Yr-Horn"; at the bottom was a scroll showing
the name, "FORRESTER".
As time went on, through many generations, and FORRESTERS per-
formed deeds of valor on the field of battle, they were rewarded by their
king, by being allowed to make certain additions to their Coat of Arms,
each addition having a special significance.
In this respect, it is interesting to note that all the known FORRESTER
Coats of Arms still feature the three bugles, or hunting horns.
It is believed that the design shown is the one carried during the Crusades,
MOTTO: "Si Fractus Fortis"
(Though Broken Brave)
ARMS: Argent: A Chevron Vert
between three Bugle horns
sable stringed gules
CREST: An arm embov/ered in Armor^
holding a broken tilting spear
proper
NOTE: Tliis Coat of Arms, in color, may be purchased, framed, from

1." The different branches of the family are listed according to alphabetical designations,
using the letters of the alphabet down through "Y" to differentiate between the several
known branches of the family. The letter "Z" is used to give an identification to
people not readily identified with a specific branch of the family. The people under
"Z" are listed by states and countries, thus Ga Z-1, etc. , Scotland Z-1 etc. If in
time it is found that Georgia Z-1 is the son or daughter of A-10, then a note in the
current edition would be made thus: "NOTE Ga-1 issue of A-10" this would
automatically tie all the people previously listed as being related to Ga Z-1 to all the
people listed under Line A.
2. The numerical components of a person's number have the following connotation:
a) The "1" placed before a branch letter designation simply indicates that the
person was bom before 1 Jan 1772 (This date arbitrarily taken to separate ancient
listings from current listings so that additions may be made on either end of the
ancestral line) .
b) The number placed after the letter designation simply indicates the numerical
order in which the person's name was placed in the record, as A-1, A~2, A- 3, etc.
3. As research progresses, further new found members of a branch may be
identified as follows:
Suppose that at some future date it is determined that i-A-1 had a son or daughter
other than A-1, and that he happened to be the father of E-1, then the notation in the
current addition would be: NOTE 1-E-l is the issue of 1-A-l. This would immediately
identify all members of line as having the same ancestral origin as all members of
Line A.
4. This method of enumeration has been devised so that additions may be made in
future additions to this Volume I, without having to disturb the continuity of the
original recordings. If this method of enumeration is carried on, notations may be
made in any future additions and will refer directly to a previous notation made in
this Volume I.
Likewise, the method used will make it convenient for people doing research
when corresponding with persons in different sections , if they refer to a number they
will know that each of them are speaking of the same entry.
LEGEND
* before a name indicates the person was in life on the date the section was typed.
The * is ommitted when the fact was doubtful.
+ before a name indicates the person is a foster child.

NOTE: First generation Forresters are listed alphabetically by
the first letter of their first given name under "f" in the section
on chronological listings. Others are listed alphabetically by the
first letter of their sir names.

PREFACE
The Bugles Call
'o
In this changing world of the twentieth century, there seems to be also a
change in our sense of direction, as well as a change in our sense of values.
Due to economic pressures and change of circumstance brought about by
the machine age, families are being separated as never before. This trend
is accompanied by a corresponding deterioration of family affections and the
ties that bind.
People throughout the land and all over the world seem to have lost their
recognition of the family as being the basis of civilization.
Many years ago when mankind first appeared on earth, the family was, and
is today, the basic stabilizing institution in the society of men. It was in the
family that man's inherent instincts of character were developed. It was here
around the family hearthstone sharing the hardships of life that man learned to
love his fellows and to share with thena the responsibilities of survival.
In return for these loyalties, the individual received the protection of the group,
but what is most important, he was endowed with a sense of "belonging" so
necessary to the well being of man.
These requisites, together with religion, have been the ballast down through
the ages to strengthening man's purpose in life and promoting progress in the
ethics of human behavior.
A proper reflection on these inate precepts prompts the invitation to gather once
again around the "Old Mahogany Tree" and live again in the affections of our
fathers of so long ago. But as we gather at the trestle board of our sires, let
us partake of our heritage, of courage, wisdom and justice so profoundly
portrayed by the history of our people.
The Echoes Tell We Will Keep the Faith
The motivation for these presents stems from our heed to the ancentral persuasior
of the bugle's call.
At the same time, it is our hope that these transcriptions will never be complete.
We hope that the HOUSE OF FORRESTER will stand forever as a living symbol of
a great people who have made such worth while contributions to the establishment
of all the important institutions in the progress of mankind.
As this call is dear to us, so will it be to those who follow.
When we who toil here are reckoned as antiquity, our seed will honor their
TOMORROW^"^^^ ^^^'"^ rendezvous with destiny and the everlasting challange of

AUTHOR'S NOTE
This book is intended to be Volume I of a series of compilations of FORRESTER
genealogy and history.
When this work was first envisioned, Virginia Yeoman Forrester, Edward
Forrester and I formed a Forrester Genealogical Association for the purpose of
compiling and recording Forrester genealogy and history. This is a temporary
arrangement. We felt that at the next family reunion, the family could and
would formalize the organization and set up the naechanics to carry on the work.
We hope that this book will convey to you the spirit of enthvisiasm with which
this work was begun and that it will promote enough interest among all
Forresters to assure the continuance of this project.
We began fully aware that tracing the ancestry of the several branches of the
family would require several years of diligent effort and research. Since this is
to be a continuous project, the book is loose leaf so that additions and corrections
can be made easily. When enough progress has been made in research to warrant
it, the book will be put in a permanent binding.
If the family elects to make the organization permanent, all Forresters may
send in births, deaths, marriages and other vital information. This data will
be recorded and published at suitable intervals. If the work is continued, a
child born years from now may readily trace his ancestry to the head of his line
from material already published.
Some of the material included here is documented; some is not. In all instances,
however, the information comes from, sources believed to be authentic. A pre-
ponderance of the listings comes from personal knowledge of people living at the
time of this recording and is considered to be correct.
Let me remind you that this book is offered simply as a start; yet, in this first
edition, there are hundreds of people listed. For this reason, it is impractical
to prove births and deaths. We, therefore, accept the personal knowledge of
living people as the highest and best evidence of the data recorded herein.

INTRODUCTION
Any family history must include some discussion of the origin of the name and 1
coat-of-arms, for these things can tell us much about our beginnings. ||
/Vraong the several spellings of the family name are FORRESTER, FORESTER,
FORSTER, FOSTER, FORRISTER AND FORRESTIER, as well as some others.
For the sake of convenience, we have elected to use the spelling FORRESTER for
general reference. In the recording of specific people's names, however, we
have used the spelling used by the source of information or that currently in use
by an individual or family branch.
Which spelling is the original one is questionable. In Volume I, page 70, of
The Complete Works of Sir Walter Scott, Sir Walter refers to a "Sir John
FORSTER or more properly FORRESTER"; however, in Volume VIII, page 279,
of Historian's History of the World, the spelling is given as FORESTER.
In t^is book, we have recorded a line beginning with Anacher who died in
Flanders in 837 and is claimed by some to have been the originator of the name.
(See Line A, Note. ) He is listed as Governor of Flanders and the Great
Forrester of France. The genealogy was compiled by William T. Foster of
Washington.
It is interesting to note that l-A-21, Sir Reginald FORSTER, was the son of
l-A-22, Sir Hugh FORRESTER. In the same line, beginning with l-A-4 to
the present, the spelling becomes FOSTER. It appears that these changes were
made arbitrarily.
Many such changes occur in the following compilation. Notable among these is
a will made by a certain William FORRESTER recorded in Will Book 4, page
226, of Richmond County, Virginia, where three distinct spellings of the name
are recorded - FORRESTER, FORRISTER AND FORREST. In like manner, a
will of Griffin FORRESTER recorded in Northumberland County, Virginia,
Record Book 16, page 44, names his brother James FORESTER as one of his
executors. Note the omission of an r by James. Why ?
Several reasons can be cited for these changes in spelling. First of all, the lack
of formal education among the populace in bygone days might be a chief factor.
Most people spelled names as they sounded, and it is possible that individuals
of the same branch may have varied the spelling of the sir name. Census takers,
army personnel, clerics and other public officials most likely added to the
confusion by misspelling names on public records. The distorted spellings on these
records were probably carried on by later members of the family as education
became more widespread.
xxxiv
Dialect and language also played some part. One thesis holds that the different
spellings of the name were derived froin the geographical area in which the
various branches of the family lived. For instance, FORRESTTER is probably
of French origin, while FORRISTER could be of German extraction. Suppose
that FORESTER is English and that the Scottish branch of the family added an
r for the sake of phonetic alignment with the Scottish dialect. Logic would tend
to support this theory, but additional research may disprove it.
It has been a common belief among the family that all Forresters, regardless
of the spelling of the sir name, are descended from a common ancestor. If,
however, some thought is given to how names originated, common sense will
tend to contradict this supposition.
Sir names came into vogue about the beginning of the twelfth century. Previously,
only those persons who had distinguished themselves through service or achieve -
nient were given sir names. When sir names became popular for everyone,
they were usually a designation of the person's vocation - Smith for blacksmith,
Forrester for keeper of the forests or a description of a personal characteristic
like Brown or White.
Of importance to us is the fact that each political subdivision generally had a
forester, and according to the usual custom, each forest had a keeper. These
keepers were replete with the usual trimmings; that is, anywhere from five to
fifteen children. These children took the sir name Forrester, and so a lineage
was started.
Let us suppose that the King of France and the King of England both appointed a
keeper of the forests. There would be two families using the sir name Forrester
in separate geographical areas. These families would obviously not be blood
relations exclusively on the basis of name, although they could have been kin by
reason of racial origin. (See Chapter 1, Part 2, )
There are at least six known Forrester coats -of -arins, some of which are shown
in this book. Since all of them display the hunter's horn or bugle, they are most
likely of the same origin.
Coats -of -arms came into use as a means of identification. Since suits of armor
looked more or less alike, knights painted emblems on their shields to identify
thennselves on the battlefield. The custom began about 1200A. D, and flourished
until about 1700A.. D, At first, coats-of-arms were very simple, but as time
went on, additions were made. These authorized additions were usually awards
given by a king or lord for valor on the field of battle or for other meritorious
service.
XXXV
f
Only a direct descendent of an arms bearer is entitled to display the coat-of-arms; f;
however, Americans of colonial descent on all sides can usually establish a line
of direct descent from an arms bearer.
Since keepers of the forests were usually trusted servants of the king, it is
likely that many Forresters were knights or squires and, therefore, arms bearers.
Is is not unreasonable to assume that many of the people listed in this book are most
assuredly entitled to display the coat-of-arms.
The origin of our sir name and the similar coats -of -arms tend to weld us all
into a common bond. Whether or not there be any direct blood connection between
some of the family branches has no particular bearing on our common purpose.
Our purpose is to gather and record Forrester genealogy of all spellings for
future generations. We believe that our ancestors have contributed greatly to
the progress of civilization and that the heritage they have left us must not be lost.
We do not know where this search will lead us. We will simply have to follow the
paths which our individual ancestors have trod.

Chapter I
FORRESTERS IN FLANDERS
The recorded history of the name FORRESTER goes back into antiquity for
well over a thousand years, the name having originated in Flanders during the
early eight hundreds. The racial origin of the people bearing the name is
buried deeply in the early history of the Netherlands.
The Netherlands is a small triangle of land hemmed in by Germany, France
and the sea. The earliest information on record about this land was handed
down to us from the Romans. Julius Caesar refers to heroic savages who fought
ferociously against the legions in the patriotic defense cf their native land.
The Netherlands are now divided almost equally between Holland and Belgium.
These low countries formed by the Rhine River are geograpMcally and
• ethnographically a part of Gaul and Germany., The land was formed by three
great rivers - the Rhine, the Maas and the Schelde. For countless ages, these
rivers deposted their slime on the sand banks heaved up by the ocean around
their mouths, making a delta inhabitable for man.
After entering this vast meadow, the Rhine divides into two branches, thus
forming the island of Bativia. The Maas, rising in the Vosges mountains, flows
through the Ardennes woods and finally joins up with the Rhine. The Schelde,
rising in Picardy, flows through the present provinces of Flanders and Hainault.
These rivers flowing through this lowland and into the sea formed a great mass
of swampland and spongy marshes. The aboriginal inhabitants of this land
have never been positively identified. The record does not reach beyond the
time of Caesar's Gallic wars. At that time, the left of the Rhine was inhabited
mainly by tribes of the Celtic family. Celts, in all probability, also inhabited
the island of Bativia. A large division of the Celt family had already overspread
many portions of Asia Minor, Greece, Germany, the British Isles, France and
Spain. They had long been settled in Belgic Gaul and constituted the bulk of
the population.
Checked in the westward movement by the Atlantic Ocean, the Celts tended to
flow back toward the lands of their origin; therefore, the Gallic portion of the
population of the Netherlands was derived fi'om the original race. The heart
of the country was inhabited by a Gallic race, but the frontiers had been settled
by Teutonic tribes.
There are several significant aspects of the settlement of these lowlands by
these ancient people which are pertinent to the heritage of their descendents
and to the study of the progress of civilization. They had to be of necessity a
race of hardy and courageous people in order to survive in a land so destitute
and fraught with natural obstacles antagonistic to survival. In addition, even
though the land was comparatively uninhabitable, it was coveted by many people.
The land was conquered by Caesar who stated that the Bativians were the
bravest and most ferocious of all the German tribes. For almost 300 years,
both before and after Caesar, the land was constantly invaded by the Northmen,
people from the Scandinavian countries.
The hardships of the land and the invasions and wars tempered an already
hardened and heroic people to take their place in the destiny of human progress.
Flanders today has lost its national identity and simply makes up two of the
provinces of Belgium, but for centuries it was the forefront of European
politics and commerce, far overshadowing England and rivaling France and the
empire. Compared with Ghent, London was a third rate town.
England was then merely an agricultural district of small population. She
furnished raw materials for the great industries of the Flemings, whose trade
was the envy of the world, where rich men and women provoked the jealousy
of kings and whose art, music and letters glittered over the whole continent.
The Forresters who are descendents of these people are possessed of a heritage
of leadership both in politics, industry and the arts.
Flanders began to rise out of hazy antiquity about the time of Charles the
Great; however, the early history of its leaders is more or less obscure.
The older chronicles sometimes give very different accounts. According to
mythical legends, the first rulers of this land trace their ancestry back to
Priam of Troy.
We find the founder of the family of FORESTER to be a certain Lideric le Buc.
Lideric was the son of Saluart, Prince of Dijon. His mother was Madame
Eringarde, the daughter of Gerard, Lord of Roussillon. ^ Lideric is of doubtful
authenticity, but his death in 836 is mentioned in the Annoles Blandinienses which
was compiled before 1064 from earlier documents.
According to these earlier documents, Lideric had a son named Audacer. ^
Audacer was recognized merely as a cognomen for Baldwin, the next person in
the genealogical series. With Baldwin, who was known as "Bras de Fer" or
"Iron Arm", we finally reach the terra firma of history.
1. This account differs somewhat from the genealogical listing in Line A of
this book. In the interest of accuracy, we are recording both accounts.
Further research could tie the two together.
2. This could be the Anarcher mentioned in Line A.
Later, Baldv/in persuaded his father-in-law to recognize him as Baron or Count
of Flanders. At this time and for about 300 years before, the Northmen were
ravaging the coast of Flanders and attacking the settlements along the river bank.
In light of these circumstances, it seems plausible that Baldv/in's father could
have been occupying the countship of Flanders by force of arms; consequently,
Baldwin's elopement with Judith was a matter of political expediency.
Baldwin Forrester II, born of this marriage and like his father, was a dynanaic
ruler. He is remembered in history as a vigorous opponent of the Normans and
as the builder of the walls of Bruges and Ypres. He is also credited with laying
the foundation of political liberties in his country by appointing twelve of his
principle vassals as a council of state. He married Aelfthryth, daughter of
Alfred the Great of England. This action showed that he had inherited some of
the political acumen of his father.
After his death in 918, his possessions v/ere divided betv/een his two sons,
ArnuK and Adolphus. Adolphus died very shortly, and Arnulf came into the
entire inhei'itance. Tho reigii of Arnulf was beset with trouble. He was constantly
at war Vi^ith the Normans on one hand and Emperor Otho I on the other. He made
one of has conferences memorable by murdering William Longsword, the Duke
of Normandy.
In his old age, Arnulf put the government in the hands of Baldwin HI, his son by
his wife Adelia, daughter of the Count of Vermandois. Baldwin, although his
reign was a verj'- short one, did a great deal for the comimercial and industrial
progress of the country. He established the first v/eavers and fullers of Ghent.
He also instituted yearly fairs at Ypres, Bruges, Veurne, Cossel and other cities
throughout the kingdom.
At Baldwin's death in 961, the old Count Arnulf resumed control and spent the few
remaining years of his life in securing the succession of his grandson Arnulf, or
Arnold the Younger. The reign of Arnulf was terminated by his death in 989, He
was followed by his son Baldwin IV who was known as "Pulchra Barba" or
" Comely Beard".
This Baldwin fought successfully against the King of France and Emperor Henry
11 and obtained Valenciennes, Walcheren and the Islands of Zeeland from Henry.
The counts of Flanders thus became feudatories of the empire, as well as of France.
Baldwin's son, Ealdwin V, rebelled against his father in 1028 at the instigation of
his wife Adela, daughter of Robert of France, but two years later peace was made
at Oudenards, and the old count continued until his death in 1036.
Baldv/in Y proved to be a worthy sxiccessor to his father. The people gave him
the name or title of "Debonnaire".
1. This lends some credence to the lineage listed in Line A.
There is, of course, an abundance of Flemish history following Baldwin V;
some of it will be recounted here. Baldwin V and his descendents, however, are
probably of more interest to EngUsh, Scotch and American Forresters.
Baldwin Forester V was an active, ambitious and enterprising man who greatly
extended his power by wars and alliances. Before his death, he saw his daughter
married to and sharing the throne of England with William the Conqueror. At
the battle of Hastings in 1066, when V/illiam defeated King Harold II of England,
Baldwin Forester was in command of the French troops. Sir Richard Forrester,
the son of Baldwin V, was also with V/illiam at Hastings. He was knighted and
given large holdings of land in Scotland.
After William ascended the throne, he gave an old English fort known as Etherstone
to Baldwin. Baldwin later made the fort into a castle, and it was occupied for
many generations by Foresters. With Baldwin settling at Etherstone and with
Richard settling in Scotland, Forester roots were put down in the British Isles
for generations to come. There is very little, if any, doubt that many of our
American Foresters are direct descendents of Baldwin Forester V.
William the Conqueror's wife, Matilda Forester, evidently kept the Foresters
close to the throne for many years. Foresters played an important part in the
ser\'ice of their kings in Britain and Scotland from 1066 until 1650 and in some
instances even into the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. It is worthy of note
that Matilda was the ancestral grandmother of every British king or queen from
William the Conqueror down to the House of S tuart. 2
It appears that Baldwin V is the keystone or beginning of Foresters who settled
in the British Isles; however, Baldwin had other children. Either they or their
descendents played a prominent part in the affairs of Europe and the Middle East.
One of Baldwin's sons, Baldwin of Mons, in Dutch Bergen, married Countess
Richelde of Hainault and brought this province into the power sphere of Flanders.
Bladwin's elder son, Robert the Frisian, married Countess Gertrude and ruled
the countships of Holland and Friesland in his wife's right.
Baldwin's younger daughter Judith married Tostic, brother of Harold II of
England, who was defeated by William the Conqueror.
At the death of Baldwin V, Baldwin of Mons succeeded to the Countship of
Flanders, apparently with the acquiescence of his brother Robert who jvas next
in line to succeed Baldwin V. A few years later, a quarrel broke out, and
Baldwin was killed. Robert then claimed the regency for Baldwin's children and
was supported by the Emperor Henry IV. Richelde, Baldwin's widow, appealed
to Philip of France. The issue was decided at Rarenchoren on February 22,
1071. Robert was the victor, and Arnulf III, Baldwin's son, was slain.

Robert becamr Baldwin VI and reigned until his death in 1093. He was succeeded
by his son Robert II, who became Baldwin Forester Vn. Baldwin VII was given
the name "A La Hache" or "With the Axe". He became famous for his exploits
in the first crusade and acquired the title of "Lance and Sword of Christendom".
Upon the death of Baldwin VII, the countship went to Baldwin's cousin, Charles
of Denmark. Charles was the son of King Canute and Queen Adelais, daughter of
Robert the Frisian. Charles of Denmark was a religious enthusiast and exercised
his powers against all wayward brothers and non-believers. At Bruges in 1127,
he ordered all granaries to be thrown open during a famine. The merchants who
had expected to profit by the enaergency were so enraged that they arranged for
Charles to be assassinated in the church at St. Donat.
After the assassination, there were six pretenders to the coxmtship. Among these
were William Clets, son of Robert Courtthone of Normandy, and Thierri or
Theodoric of Alsace. Theodoric v/as the successful competitor. He married the
widow of Count Charles, Marguerite of Clermont. He distinguished himself at
home by the wise encouragement wMch he gave to the growth of liberty and
abroad by the part he took in several crusading expeditions. In the later years of
his life, he retired to Grovelines, leaving the cares of state to his son Philip.
V/hen Philip came to rule in his own name, he followed in his father's footsteps and
acquired the honorable reputation of the "Great Law Giver of Flanders". He
married Elizabeth of Vermandois. While Elizabeth was on her deathbed, Philip
had a violent dispute with the French monarch about the possession of Vermandois.
Philip was ultimately granted Vermandois during his life. As he had no children,
his inheritance v/ent to Baldwin of Hainault, who had married his sister Marguerite.
This change in the dynasty considerably affected the relations of Flanders with
France. The French Idng laid claim to the countship, and Baldwin was constrained
to cede Artois, St. Om.ey, Lens, Hesdin and a great part of southern Flanders to
France. He also forced Matilda of Portugal, the widow of Philip, to hold Lille,
Casser, Veurne, Rille and Sluys. Marguerite died in 1194 and Baldwin in 1195,
The countship was inherited by their son Baldwin IX, who became founder of the
Latin empire at Constantinople. In Constantinople, he was known as Baldwin I. ^
Baldwin was captured on April 14 in a battle fought against the King of Bulgaria
and the Greeks. According to tradition, Baldwin was placed in a dungeon. The
Queen of Bulgaria fell in love with him and offered to help him get out of prison
if he would return to Flanders and marry her. This he refused to do. ' The Queen
then poisoned the King's ear against Baldwin,
1. Monarchs Retired from Business, n, d.. Vol n, p. 111. This book was a
limited edition of about 1, 000 copies. It appears to have been published
early in the nineteenth century.
On the occasion of a drunken debauche, the King had Baldwin brought before
him and ordered that his hands and feet be cut off for the entertainment of the
court. Being the gallant soldier that he was, Baldv/in tried desperately to defend
himself. His efforts v/ere futile, however, and the king's orders were carried
out. After his limbs were severed, his body was thrown in a ditch on the edge of
town. He Uved for three days and all that time was a prey for vultures. After-
wards, the King of Bulgaria made a drinldng cup from Baldwin's skull which he
used on festive occasions. The story relates that a pious female from Burgandy
recovered the remains of Baldwin's body and gave them a secret interment.
As emperor of Constantinople, Baldwin was succeeded by Baldwin H, the son of
Peter de Courtney.
Back in Flanders, Baldwin IX had died. Since his two daughters were both under
age, the government of Flanders had been entrusted to his brother Philip.
Philip was assisted by Eosschert of Avesnes and William of Hainault.
Johanna, the elder daughter, married Ferdinand of Portugal but left no heir.
At her death in 1279, the countship passed to the children of her younger sister
Margaret. There v/ere two sons. The eldest was John by her first husband
Bosschert of Avesnes, the second was Guy of Dampierre by her second husband
William of Dampierre. John inherited the Countship of Hainault, while Guy
became the Count of Flanders.
The government of Guy proved an unfortunate one. Flanders was involved in a
war with France in v/hich she came very close to losing her independence. The
Count died in prison at Compiegne about two m-onths after peace was concluded in
1305. His son, Robert of Bethune, v/as acknov/ledged as his successor by both
the Flemings and the French. Robert was an able and valiant price and has the
honor of having established the first insurance company at Bruges.
Robert's successor was his grandson, Louis of Nevers and Rethel. Louis had
been brought up at the French court and had married Margaret, a daughter of the
French king. Kis reign was made forever memorable by the enterprise of Jacob
Van Arterelde, the great hero of Flemish liberty. Lovus perished in the battle of
Crecy and left his county to his son Louis n of Male, near Bruges, under whom,
the Flemish struggl'3 for liberty was maintained.
By the marriage of Louis' daughter Margaret v/ith Philip of Burgandy, the lordship
of Flanders passed to the Burgundian family; thus, it ultinaately becamie part of
the possessions of the House of Austria.
The title of Count of Flanders has been held since 1840 by the second son of
Leopold I of Belgium, PMlip Eugene Ferdinand.
Thus, we see that Forester sprang from one of the prominent families of Europe
and that its ancestry is buried deep in the origin of the Germanic peoples down
through the Celts, Normans, Danes and from others who sparked the progress of
modern western civilization.

AUTHOR'S NOTE
Some explanation of the genealogy cited in Chapter n seems necessary.
First of all, it should be understood by the reader that no definite proof exists
that American Forresters are descended from the Corstorphine Forresters
described in this chapter.
The first note in Sir J. Balfour Paul's Scottish Peerage states, "The first name
on record (in Scotland) is a William Forrester, an Esquire, who appears in the
muster roll of the Peel of Linlithgow in 1311-12, but the earliest authentic pro-
genitor of the Lords Forrester was Adam Forrester a wealthy and influential
burgess of Edinburgh. "
The first mention of Adam Forrester is in 1361. Adam probably was a descendent
of the William mentioned above, and William could have been, and no doubt was,
a descendent of Richard Forrester to whom William the Conqueror gave large
land holdings in Scotland after Hastings in 1066.
The record which we have indicates that the male line of descent from Sir Adam
Forrester ran out with George, the first Lord Forrester. George resigned his
title in favor of his daughter Joanna's husband, James Baillie. Baillie took the
sir name Forrester and became the second Lord Forrester, However, it is
certainly reasonable to presume that there were a number of Forrester males
who were not in direct line of succession to Adam Forrester who could have left
issue.
There are a number of things which suggest that American Forresters are
descended from the Scotch, English and Irish Forresters. First, of course, is
the fact that these groups represented the largest migration to the American
colonies. The known records of Forrester immigrants tend to lead us back to
the British Isles.
A second indication is the fact that many of the Christian names of the
Corstorphine Forresters are still traditionally popular among American Forresters.
We know that the Forrester family and the Baillie family were closely connected
in Scotland, for there two Forrester sisters married two Baillie brothers. It is
ironic that again in America we find Baillies and Forresters intermarrying with
a James Forrester marrying a Mazie (Mary) Baillie. Mazie was the granddaughter
of Sir Mohr Mcintosh, who was the son of Lachlin Mcintosh of Knocknagle, Scotland.
Because the lineage of Sir Adam Forrester is so colorful and because it gives
a comprehensive incite into the history of the British people, it has been recorded
in narrative form rather than the form used generally in this book.

Chapter n
FORRESTERS IN THE BRITISH ISLES
As we have seen in Chapter I. a Forrester family came from Flanders to England
with William the Conqueror after the Battle of Hastings. The descendents of
Baldwin V apparently setUed at Etherstone, and Baldwin's son Richard went to
Scotland.
The Anacher line^ sho'.vs Sir Hugh Forrester, son of Sir Richard, as being the
governor of Etherstone CasUe. Presumably, Sir Richard never did act as
governor of Etherstone but went directly to Scotland.
Here again, we are confronted with confusing differences in spelling. Some
references spell the Flanders Forresters with one r, while others use two r's.
We do know, however, that Forresters were pronainent in English, Scotch and
Irish history. The activities of some of these Forresters are vividly set forth
in the transcription of Line A? Sir Hugh Forrester, governor of Etherstone, was
a general of the English army in a war with the Normans in 1101; Sir Reginald
Forrester was knighted by King Stephen of England for his generalship at the
Battle of the Standard in 1138; Sir Hugh Forster, governor, was chief of the Royal
Forests of England about 1152; Sir Hugh's son. Sir William Forster, governor of
Etherstone, was commanding general of the armies which put down a rebellion in
Wales in 1163.
The titled Forresters, in all probability, represent only a small segment of the
respective families, since only the eldest son would inherit the titles and estates.
Usually, the daughters were married by arrangement in order to add both political
and economic power to the family. The younger sons were often placed in the
clergy, the law or business. Many young men went to the army in order to be in a
position to perform deeds of valor and thus gain titles in their own right.
In many instances, families would send their younger sons to other households
among the gentry to act as pages and to be trained for knighthood. When they
were proficient and if they had performed some service of merit for the nobleman,
he would usually make the boy a squire, an ensign or bestow some other title on
him. Some of these young men would become the armor bearer for the noble he
was serving which was considered a position of honor.
Aside from training these young sons away from home, this arrangement had at
least one other advantage. It gave the young esquires an opportunity to meet.

2. Ibid.
U
know, and in many instances, fall in love with the girls of the household.
Marriages among the nobility, however, had to have the sanction of the ruling
king or queen in most cases. There is at least one instance of a marriage of
this type among the Forresters which will be chronicled later.
Aside from deeds of valor on the battlefield, there were other Forresters who
showed a fine characteristic for moral courage. A typical instance is a certain
William Forrester, a minister of the Church of England. Because he would not
pursue doctrines antagonistic to his principles, he was expelled from the Episcopacy
of Scotland in the year 1638. This expulsion took place even though William was a
man of large landed property.
After his expulsion, he returned with his family to Londonery in Ireland where he
became rector of the Cathedral of St. Columby. Pie continued in this office until
he died. His son Alexander succeeded him in office in 1676. William had two
other sons, Matthew and William, but Matthew died in childhood. William moved
to Coloraine and became Lord Mayor of that city. ^
Admittedly, we do not have the entire story, but from all accounts, the Forresters
played a prominent and aggressive part in the border wars between the Scotch and
English. The general tenor seems to suggest that they played "both ends against
the middle", perhaps to their best interest. This conjecture is mainly based on
the geography of the Forrester habitations.
The county of Berwick is on the Scotch side of the Tweed River, while the city of
Berwick is on the English side of the river. Likewise, Bamborough Castle is on
the eastern shore of England just south of Berwick City. 2
In "The Minstrelsy of the Scottish Border", Sir Walter Scott makes frequent
references to the Forresters' activities and their places of residence. One stanza
from the poem states;
"Of other clans I cannot tell.
Because our warning was not wide--
Be this our foUis hae ta'en the fell.
And planted down palliones, there to bide
We looked down the other side.
And saw come breasting ower the brae,
Wi' Sir John Forster for their guyde.
Full fifteen hundred men and mae. "
1. This genealogy was found on the last page of an old ledger, the property of and
in the handwriting of William Forrester, who died about 1814.
2. There are two spellings for this castle. That used in data submitted in Line A
is Bamborough, while Sir Walter Scott uses the spelling Balmborough. All
facts indicate both spellings refer to the same castle.
12
Sir Walter attaches the following footnote to the poem:
"Sir John Forster, or more properly Forrester, of Balmborough Abbey,
warden of the middle marches in 1361, was deputy governor of Berwick and
governor of Balmborough Castle. He made a great figure on the borders and is
said on his monument at Balmborough Church to have possessed the office of
warden of the middle marches for 37 years until his death. His line ended in the
unfortunate Thomas Forster, one of the generals of the Northumbrain revolt in
1715. The estate became forfeit and was purchased by his uncle. Lord Crewe,
and devised for the support of his magnificent charity. "-^
Sir Walter also mentions a residence of Forresters, Stanegirthside, situated on
the English side of the Liddel. Another reference gives and account of a battle
in which a Forrester chieftain participated.
"The skirmish of the Reidswere happened upon the seventh of June 1575, at one
of the meetings held by the wardens of the marches for arrangements upon the
border.
Sir John Carmichael, ancestor of the present Earl of Hynford (Title extinct 1830)
was the Scottish warden, and Sir John Forster held that office on the English middle
march. In the course of the day, which was employed as usual in redressing wrongs,
a bill or indictment at the instance of a Scottish complainer was fouled (a true
bill) against one Fornstein, a notorious English freebooter. Forster alleged that
he had fled from justice; Carmichael considering this as a pretext to avoid making
compensations for the felony bade him "play fair" to which the haughty English
warden retorted by some injurious expressions respecting Carmichael's family
and gave other open signs of resentment. His retinue, chiefly men of Redesdale
and Tynedale, the most ferocious of the English borderers, glad of any pretext for
a quarrel, discharged a flight of arrows among the Scots. A warm conflict ensued
in which Carmichael was beat down and made prisoner. Success at first seemed
inclined to the English until the Tynedale men, throwing themselves too greedily
upon the plunder, fell into disorder, and a body of Jedburgh citizens arrrvlng at
that instant terminated the skirmish in a complete victory of the Scots.
The Scots took as prisoners Sir John Forster, James Ogle, Cuthbert Collingwood
and Francis Russel, the son of the Earl of Bedford and son-in-la-Cv of Sir John
Forster, along with some of the Fenwicks and other border chiefs. They were
sent to the Earl of Morton, then regent, who detained them at Dalkerth for some
days, till the heat of their resentment was abated; which prudent precautions
prevented a war betwixt the two kingdoms. He then dismissed them with great
expressions of regard. "^
There are other references and narratives of countless border clashes in which
Forresters were involved.

The belief that in some instances the Forresters might have tried to carry force
on both sides is to a great extent motivated by the practical consideration of their
residences. As we have already seen, the Forresters were firm.ly entrenched on
the English side of the border at Bamborough Castle, and the Earls of Corstorphine
were for two or three hundred years just as firmly entrenched at Corstorphine just
out of Edinburgh.
The sections "Scotland Z" and "England Z" show that hundreds of Forresters were
scattered all through northern and middle England and southern to central Scotland.
Bamborough Castle being on the coast and Corstorphine enjoying a key position
give rise to the speculation that Ber-z/ick and Bamborough might have provided an
avenue for smuggled goods both into and out of Scotland. Such a traffic was
entirely consistent with customs of that time; however, it was usually carried on
with the tacit approval of the ruling monarch of the country. Since Forresters at
that time were in favor both in England and Scotland, it covild well have been a
lucrative business.
That the Forresters were in the forefront of things in these areas is amply set
forth in recorded history of the family. Particularly in Scotland, the Forresters
were intimately connected with church, state and business.
The first Forrester on record in Scotland, supposedly a descendent of Sir Richard
Forrester, brother-in-law of William the Conqueror, is William Forrester, an
esquire, who appears in the muster roll of the Peel of Linlithgow in 1311-12. The
next is an Adam Forrester. W^hether or not Adam had any connection v/ith William
is conjectural, but Adam evidently was William's son, as Adam is found in 1264 to
possess a charter of half the lands of Whitburn in Linlithgow.
Adam Forrester was a wealthy and influential burgess of Edinburgh. He had, in
addition to the above land in Whitburn, a grant of the customs south of the Forth
on March 17, 1361-32; a confirmation of a grant to him by William Seaton of two
carucates of land in Villa de Nodreff (Niddry), in the same constabulary, October
23, 1369; a confirmation of a grant to him by Alexander de Straton of the lands of
Castlecary, County Edinburgh, December 7, 1376; and on the same day a confirma-
tion of a grant to him by William More of Abercorn of the lands of Corstorphine.
He had a charter from James Douglas, Lord of Dalkeith, of the lands of Fairliehope,
County Peebles, March 16, 1377. He had a grant from King Robert II of twenty
merks from the burgh mails of Edinburgh in excambion for a similar sum from the
customs of that burgh December 28, 1379, and a renewal of this grant.Jtily 4, 1383.
Among others, he also received a grant to a tenement in Edinburgh of the hostilagia
of Traquair, County Peebles. On the resignation of Henry de Wyntoun and Amy
Broun of June 25, 1382, he received a grant of the Wrychtishouses near Edinburgh.
The Wrychtishouses was puUed down in 1800 to make place for James Gillespie's
School in Gillespie Crescent. Every window of the mansion was adorned with
armorial bearings in stone as a durable menaorial of the family tree. One of these
segmental stones, shoving the arms of the Forresters and the Napiers, is to be
found built into the archway of the approach to the mcinsion of St. Margaret's,
North Queensferry.
14
Like many other burgesses of note in Edinburgh, Adam Forrester lived in a wynd
off the High Street. Being a man of great affluence and the owner of considerable
property, he became adept at handling administrative affairs. So ably did he apply
his talents in this direction that he was made alderman of Edinburgh in 1373, the
year before he bought Corstorphine, and the city fathers returned him to office in
1378.
The following year was the turning point in Adam Forrester's life. His king was to
claim his services for the future. He was given the crown appointment of custumar
in 1379. Among other duties, he levied customs on two of the chief Scottish exports,,
wool and hides. He was allowed to import grain from England free of duty.
It was common knowledge that a great drain on the Exchequer was the yearly
installment of 4, 000 merks which Scotland, already bled white, had been paying to
England since King David n had been released in 1357. In the original agreement,
the ransom of 100, 000 merks was to be paid in ten yearly installments. The first
installment was due June 25, 1358. The ransom was not fully paid until 14 years
after the death of the king.
Edinburgh was partly responsible for the ransom, and the city fathers, desperate
for money, depended heavily on Adam Forrester as their unofficial banker. At the
same time. King Robert n, whose throne was none too secure, was bribing his
turbulent nobles to such an extent that he was also required to lean on the custumar
even for his private purse. One of these transactions is recorded in one of the
oldest deeds in the city's archives.
For a loan of 100 pounds Scots, the King granted Adam Forrester "an annuity of
twenty merksof sterling from the custom of the said burgh. . .until we, or our
heirs, infeft the said Adam or his heirs, in twenty merks of land in any proper
place". As the term "or his heirs" is used, the word "annuity" had not then the
same significance that it has nov/adays. In fact, the annviity paynaents were made
for many years after Adam's death.
In 1385, war broke out with England. Edinburgh was reduced to ashes. The old
kirk of St. Giles suffered severely. Only part of its central tower was left to show
where it stood. This church and Corstorphine were both restored. The repair of
both churches reflects the handiwork of Adam Forrester, for he was entrusted with
the work on both of them.
Probably Adam Forrester's own town house was destroyed when the town was
sacked by the army of Richard II. The house stood less than 200 feet from St.
Giles. The city plan of 1385 shows that his house had a large garden like the other
fine tenements on the west side of the wynd. Adam Forrester evidently rebuilt his
house, as the charter of 1429 refers to his house being occupied by Lady Margaret
Preston.
15
When Robert III was crowned at Scone in 1390, Parliament voted to give Queen
Annabella a separate income. Adam Forrester was appointed her Chamberlain
as well as Keeper of the Great Seal of Scotland. In the first year of Robert's
reign, a French ambassador arrived in Edinburgh for the purpose of renewing a
treaty against England. When this incident came to the attention of King Henry
IV, he disputed the right of the Scots to enter into any treaty; however, his advance
on Edinburgh with a large army was largely futile because of the "scorched earth"
policy which was adopted by the Scots.
King Robert depended heavily on Adam Forrester throughout his entire reign. If
the king required a diplomat to represent him at the English or French courts, Adam
was almost certain to be the King's choice, Adam, with his cavalcade of 30 or 40
horsemen, was given safe conduct on these mdssions on as many as 14 occasions.
A dramatic incident typifying Adam's character took place toward the end of his life.
One day in September of 1402, he donned his armor and rode off for a wild adventure
which turned out to be a famous border raid ending in the Battle of Homildon Hill.
The English were victorious. Henry IV and Adam Forrester must have felt the
situation awkward when Adam appeared before the king in the unaccustomed role of
prisoner. The Scottish nobles chose Adam as the group's spokesman. Considering
the fact that the Scots were on the wrong side of the border, it is ironic that Adam
reasoned in his speech before Henry and the English Parliament that peace should
be made between the two countries "in order to stop the effusion of Christian blood".
The prisoners were released with the exception of the Earls of Douglas and Fife.
On his return to Scotland, Adam was knighted. Seemingly, this would indicate that
Adam, although he may have been a younger son or grandson, was not in direct
succession to Richard Forrester who was knighted by William the Conqueror.
Sir Adam was one of the commissioners appointed to arrange a truce between
France, England and Scotland in 1404; however, his health probably did not permit
him to carry out this last duty for his country.
After acquiring the land of Corstorphine in 1376, Sir Adam founded a chapel,
dedicated to St. John the Baptist, in connection with the parish church there.
In the meantime, in a quiet province bet>A,'een his frequent embassies. Sir Adam
was able to give serious thought to the planning of his proposed castle at
Corstorphine.
It is said that geography is the mother of history; therefore, let us see what
geography produced when Sir Adam decided on the site for his castle. The site
today is recognized 3.s the land just a few yards to the southeast of the southern
entrance of St. Margaret's Park,
16
Adam's first consideration was for defense. There was no friendly castle near
at hand as at Nether Liberton. He felt, however, that the castle would be well
guarded on the west side by a marshy loch as large as that of Duddingston Loch,
which lay before the windows of his mansion house at Nether Liberton. To the
south lay marshes spreading across to Saughtonhall, and on the east by another
loch which filled th.e hollo\v below the hill to the lands of Gorge and Saughton, with
an outlet stream to the water of Leith. On the north was the real danger zone,
for his fortress could be reached by the road beyond the neighboring townships.
Far in the distance his gaze rested upon the massive rock upon which Edinburgh
Castle was perched, and then on the wide panorama of the Pentland Hills, and the
glamour of it all war. like a benediction to his sovil.
Sir Adam now set his men to btiild a castle on a scale appropriate to his wealth and
standing. The stones for the building were taken from the freestone quarry on the
north s'.de of Corstorp'iine Kill. Over the hill paths, later known as the green
carriage drive and the old Idrk road, the stones were conveyed on the backs of
sturdy horsvis, and the mortar was carried in baskets. Considering the arduous
mode of transport and the clow thorough way of worldng in those days, the bmlding
of the casi.e probably required ten years. It was finished about the end of the
fourteenth century.
Not a vestige of the castle stands today, but there does exist a description and a
few measurements taken about 1800 which show the cluster of ruins as they
appeared then and give some idea of the style in which Sir Adam lived.
It is definitely knov/n that the castle had curtain walls 100 feet long, and at each
corner a tower probably 40 feet high rose to the sky. Each tov/er was 21 feet in
diameter externally and had arrov/ slits for defense. Against the north curtain
wall was the csstle propor consisting of a central tower of great size and strength.
The center of everything was, of course, the hall on the first floor. Its Mgh
pointed barrel roof revealed a national characteristic in that it differed very little
from the roof of a chancel or nave. At the upper end of the hall was a wide fire-
place behind the low dais on wloich the high table was placed for the use of the lord
and his lady.
Below the dais, dried rushes gathered from the marshes near at hand were spread
on *he floor, and the retainers partook of their food at the long trestle tables there.
On one side, an oriel projected, ito windows being continued lower than the others
to give nrore light to the ser'/ing table where the meat was carved. Knives and
hands v/ere used at the mf;al«. There were no forks. Everything was, done in the
hail - cooking, eating, living and sleeping. Privacy was out of the question, until
a new departure; v/as made, when the lord and his family were no longer willing to
sleep in the hall but in separate rooms entered from above the dais.
Across the end of ihe hall was a gallery where the minstrels played when feasting
took place in the evenings. Above the rooms for sleeping were the turrets for
17
defense. On the ground floor were girnels for storing grain, malt and meal,
and beneath were the dungeons for prisoners. The curtain walls, forming a
quadrangle, surrounded the courtyard, and against these walls were built the
stables and other necessary stalls. The entrance to the castle was on the north
side, and a drawbridge spanned a wide moat which could, at will, be flooded from
the adjacent Corstorphine loch. The loch was also useful for bringing in provisions
by boat from, the Cowes Brigge, now known as Coltbridge.
No feudal lord's establishment v/as complete without a dovecot. It was his privilege
to let his pigeons feed upon his neighbor's crops as v/ell as his own. The ancient
dovecot erected by the Forresters had 1, 000 cells for birds, and its massive walls
were topped by stone slabs akin to the church roof. To this day, the church tower
is the favorite haunt of the pigeons.
As in many other instances, the dovecot of the Forresters has survived their
castle, perhaps by chance, but it m,ay be due to the old superstition that if the
dovecot were pulled dov/n, the lady of the house v/ould die within a year.
Within a stone's throw of the dovecot stands the famous sycamore tree. It is 73
' feet bdgh and 13 feet in circuroference. Tradition says that a sapling was brought
by a naonk in the early fifteenth century and that it marked the end of the avenue
leading to the castle.
Sir Adam Forrester lived in an age when the noise of the hammer and chisel of the
masons was continually heard throughout Scotland in the building of university,
cathedral, church and castle. He followed the natural bent of the Scot by giving
practical shape to his thoughts of the hereafter nov/ that he had the pride and
pleasure of his com.pleted castle.
It appeared that there v/as not enough room for him and his fam.ily to have the honor
of being buried within the sacred precincts of the old parish church; therefore, he
received permission to erect a chapel, with sacristy, dedicated to St. John the
Baptist, in the churchyard at right angles to the parish church. As the chapels at
St. Giles chow, he was no apprentice at such a job.
Space here will not permit a detailed description of the construction of this chapel,
but it might be remarked that the inside walls were finished in plaster and colored
red and pable, the Forrester colors. A canopied sedilia was recessed into the
south wall to accommodate the three officiating priests or chaplains while they
awaited in turn to pray daily, according to a charter of 1425, for the souls of James,
the King of the Scots, and for his consort Jchanne, and for Adam Forrester, knight,
and his spouse Margaret Forrester, and their ancestors and descendents.
The exterior and the interior of the chapel and sacristy, now the chancel and vestry,
have to this dry a quaintness of beauty which never loses its charm, and it is with a
.18
i
sympathetic feeling which bridges the ages that one can join in the quiet satisfaction
which Sir Adam Forrester and his lady must have experienced in 1404 when they
viev/ed the fabric of his dreams.
Sir Adam was at last happy of a full and tempestuous life. The Idng had just
appointed liim Chamberlain for the southern division of the kingdom, but Sir Adam's
health broke, and he died on October 13, 1405, leaving an honored name among men.
Kis body was laid to rest in front of the high altar of the chapel, but the grave slab
has not been allowed to lie undisturbed. The ancient stone with its scarcely
decipherable incription beginning "Hie Jacet Adam Forster" has been set into the
outside wall of the church porch probably during the addition to the church in 1646.
Sir Adam Forrester was married tv/ice. His first wife Agnes was the daughter of
John Dundas of Fingask, and his second wife was Margaret. Sir Adam had the
following children:
1. John, who succeeded him and founded the church at Corstorphine.
2. Henry or Thomas, who had a charter from his brother Sir John for the lands
of Dry law. County Edinburgh, August 20, 1406.^
3. Marion, who married Andrew Leper, burgess of Edinburgh. Andrew died about
March 5, 1400, and his father-in-law Sir Adam was served his heir May 2, 1402.
Sir John Forrester of Corstorphine was served heir to his father on November
6, 1405. He took a leading part in public affairs and held the office of Deputy
Chamberlain south of the Forth in 1405-06. On December 30, 1407, he had a
confirmation of a charter by Henry St. Clair, Earl of Orkney, of an annual rent
of tv/elve merks out of the lands and coal mines of Dysart in consideration of an
advance by him to the Earl of 300 gold nobles, English money. On March 3, 1407-08
he had a confirmation of a charter to himself and his wife Margaret by Sir John
Drummond of Cargili of the lands of Ochtertyre, County Stirling.
He was one of the commissioners sent to England to treat for the release of King
James I in 1416 and was made Keeper of the Great Seal by the Uuke of Albany when
he became governor in 1420.
Sir John's most worthy accomplishment was the founding of the collegiate church
at Corstorphine in 1429. While the younger generation of the Forrester family was
uniting with noble houses, a lady of the older generation unknowingly became a
benefactress to the people of Corstorphine for centuries to come. Dame Margaret

The details of his life, however, are in agreement.
19
his chapel by giving 250 pounds Scots yearly for the maintenance of two more
chaplains and two choir boys.
The inspiration came to Sir John to enlarge upon his mother's intentions, and he
conceived the idea of establishing a collegiate church instead. Negotiations with
the Pope covering several years ensued, but eventually Sir John was allowed to
establish the church, and he endowed it richly with annual annuities of 120 ducats
in gold.
There is m.uch which could be said about this old church which was built on the
foundations of an old and ancient church originally built by the Normans The
Corstorphine church stands today, and to see it is a must for any Forrester
visiting Scotland. The tombs of the founder and many of his descendents are to
be found there.
These tombs are the most strildng monuments in the church. There are fine
recumbent effigies of the Forresters. Time worn though they are, the tombs show
evidence of being masterpieces in their day. As Scotland had close links with
Holland in far off days, one feels there is some truth in the tradition that the
sculpture work was done by Dutch artists in stone. Whatever be their nationality,
the artists gave such meticulous care to detail that a true idea of the huinan proto-
types is presented.
The founder's tomb is on the west side of the chancel behind the manse pew. Sir
John Forrester is represented as wearing a fifteenth century close helmet with
laminated chin piece. He is clas in plate arinor with hands crossed on his breast
over a shield bearing three hunting horns. His feet are in laminated sabbatons and
rest on a lion. Imagine the rich effect obtained when the effigy was colored red and
sable, part of the armor being picked out here and there in gold.
His wife wears an enriched chaplet and a pearled wimple on her brow. Around her
neck is a gold chain with locket. Her dress is a one-piece garment with sleeves
caught at the waist with an embroidered belt and surmounted by a cloak. Her
hands, crossed over a book, rest on her breast. Each finger has a ring. Her
feet rest on a small animal with an enriched collar. All was suitably colored.
Above the archi-volt of the tomb are a helm and shield. In front' of the table are
five cusped panels, each with a shield. Numbers one, three and five are charged
with the Forrester horns. Number two from dexter impales Forrester with St.
Clair, for his v/ife, and number four impales Forrester with Stewart,, another wife.
The Forrester arms were argent, three hunting horns sable, stringed gules. The
crest is a dog's head erased. Their motto was "Hunter bla yr horn".
20
The founder's son John ar.d his wife are represented by the effigies on the right
side of the vestiy door. The material used is marble. The head of this Sir
John was destroyed by Cromwell's troops. The body is clad in plated armor of
a date later than hie father's. Over the armor is a cloak. The corselet,
cuisses and jambards are keel -shaped. An enriched baldric encircles the
thighs and supports a sword. The hands are folded on the breast over a napkin.
The knee pieces are particularly massive. The spur chains are enriched.
The whole impression of this figure is that of the herculean.
His wife v/ears a chaplet and wimple, and her body is clad in a flowing gown
which falls in folds and is gird by an enriched belt. She also wears a sideless
cotehardie enriched. Over all ic a cloak, fastened by a cord at the shoulders,
and on this her hcnds are cross-jd. On the forearms are sleeved mittens
enriched.
There ^re o*:her Forresters buried, in ?. siroilar manner in the church.
Sir John was one of the commissioners sent to England to treat for the release
of King James I in 1413 and v.r.s mr.de Keeper of the Great Seal of Scotland by
the Duke of Albany v/hen he became Go\'ernor in 1420.
In 1423, he had a sa;e conduct passport to go to Durham to meet King James
I on his return from captivity. In June 1424, he had a safe conduct pass to
go to Flanders for a year, but whether or not he v/ent is uncertain. He probably
stayed at home with the young Icing, with whom he was a great favorite and by
whom he was appointed master of the King's Household.
On July 10, 1426, a whole series of charters was granted to him. These
charters were confirmations, first, ox the sale to Sir John Forrester by John
Murray of Ogleface of the lands of Badlormie, County Linlithgov/; second, of
the wadset of twelve m^^rks from Dysart mentioned above; third, the lands of
Corstorphine, Drj'law, Nether Liberton, Meadowfield and Clerkington, all of
which were mited into the barony of Liberton; fourth, of the sale of an annual
rent of 100 marks made by Sir John Seton from the lands in Longniddry.
Oil the death of the Earl of Euchan at the Battle of Verneuil, August 17, 1424,
his office of Chamberlain v/as bestowed on Sir John Forrester. On March 2,
1424-25, ho founded a chaplainry in St. Giles, Edinburgh, for the souls of the
21
king and queen, his own father and mother, and his deceased wife Margaret.
On February 24, 1425-26, the king founded three chaplainries in Corstorphine
church for the souls of the same persons and granted Forrester the patronage
of the chaplainries.
Sir John was one of the jury in the trial of Murdac, Duke of Albany, in May 1425.
On June 25, 1429, Sir John was named as John Forrester, Baron of Liberton,
one of the Scots comnaissioners for a truce with England, and on July 12 in the
same year, he appends his seal to an indenture settling conditions for the
observance of order on the inarches, his arms being simply a hunting horn
stringed.
On February 4, 1430-31, he had a royal charter of the lands of Corstorphine,
Drylaw, Nether Liberton, Meadowfield and Clerkington to himself, with the
remainder to his eldest son John, his sons Henry and John (secundus), and his
own brother Thomas or Henry and the heirs -male of their bodies, whom failing,
to his own nearest and lawful heirs.
The date of the death of Sir John Forrester is uncertain, but he is believed to
have died in 1448. This is the last mention of him as Chamberlain. He was
buried in Corstorphine church, where the recumbent effigies previously described
of him and one of his wives are still to be seen.
Sir John married first a lady whose Christian name was Margaret, but nothing
more is known of her; second, Jean, daughter of Henry St. Clair, Earl of
Orkney; third, in or previous to 1422, he married Marion, daughter and heir to
Sir Walter Stewart of Dalswinton, Marion was the widow of Sir John Stewart of
Jedworth, who died before October 23, 1420. On this date, his widow resigned
the lands of Carnsalloch in favor of Sir Herbert Maxwell, In 1422, Sir John
received in his wife's right her terce, payable from the customs of Linlithgow.
Two years afterward, with the consent of her husband, Marion made a donation
to a prebendal stall in the cathedral of Glasgow.
Sir John had the following children:
1. Sir John, who succeeded.
2. Henry, who had confirmation on October 28, 1425, of the lands of
Incheranthnyne and Oxgangis, County Edinburgh, and of Auchindenny and others
in the same county. On February 23, 1425-26, he had a charter of the lands of
Kilbaberton. He was latterly styled of Niddry. He married Helen, daughter of
John Fairlie of Braid, and with her had a charter of the lands of Bavelaw,
January 1426-27. They had issue:
22
(1) John, who married Elizabeth c!e Moravia, and with her had a charter
of certain lands in Dechmont and KJlbaberton, June 28, 1459-60. He is styled
of Niddry, February 25, 1492-93. He sold Dechmont in 1505.
(2) Archibald, v/itness to a charter, December 24, 1506.
3. Elizabeth, married to Sir Alexander Lauder of Hal ton, and with him had a
charter of the laiids of Westhall and North Rav/ in the barony of Ratho, December
17, 1408.
4. Janet, married Robert, afterwards second Lord Maxwell. On January 13,
1424-25, she and her husband had a grant of the lands of Libbertoun in the barony
of Carnv/ath. She was living in 14C8.
John Forrester of Corstorphine, the eldest son, had a charter of tlie lands of
Blackburne, Coun.y Linlithgow, February 4, 1424-25. Not much is known of his
career, but it is said that he distinguished himself more in the field than in the
cabinet and that he took part in the struggles between the Douglases and
Chancellor Crichton ard Sir Alexander Livingston. In 1443, he was with William,
Earl of Douglas, when he destroyed Crichtonis castle of Barnton. In retaliation,
Crichton harried the lards of Corstorphine and leveled Forrester's house with the
ground.
Sir John is said to have died about 1454, when Patrick Lesouris, rector of Newton,
founded a chaplainry in St. Giles for the souls of James I and II, the late Sir John
Forrester of Corstorphine and others; but this probably applied to his father, as
Sir John, the son, if mentioned as having certain fines remitted in Exchequer in 1456.
He was burisd at Corstorphine Church where his tomb still remains.
Like that of his father, Ms tomb h^s effigies of hinaself and his wife, whose name
is unknown, but whose arms, a bend engrailed, appear impaled with those of her
husband. He had by his wife, apparently, one son and one daughter:
1. Alexander, who succeeded.
2. Isobel, nr-arried as his first wife. Sir James Edmondstone. The marriage was
ultimately annulled, and she renounced her appeal against the sentence, February
3. 1546-57.
Sir Alexander Forrester of Corsto^-phine, probably the son of the foregoing, was
granted a charter in 1450 to which Henry Forrester of Niddry, his uncle, and
Gilbe^-t Forrester of Dryl^w, his cousin, were witnesses. Sir Alexander also
appears as witness to r. charter of David, Earl of Crawford, February 26, 1463-64.
23
I t
He sat in Parliament January 13, 1483-64. He was dead before September 20,
1473, when William de Camera, vicar of Kirkurd, founded a chaplainry at the
altar of St. Anne in the church of Corstorphine for the souls of Kings James H and
in and Sir Alexander Forrester. His wife's name is not known, but he had issue:
1. Archibald, who succeeded.
2. Matthev/, who had a charter of the lands of Barnton from his brother March
1, 1487-83. He married Christian, sister of Patrick Bellenden of Auchnoule.
They are mentioned January 21, 1494-95. Their son John had a precept of clare
constat as his father's heir April 24, 1500, and sasine thereon in the following
month.
3. Margaret, married first before June 16, 1470, John Stewart of Craigiehall;
second, Robert Ramsey of Cockpen. He was alive in 1488.
4. Janet, married William T^uris, eldest son of Gabriel Touris.
Archibald Forrester of CorstorpbJLne must have been of mature age in 1482, when
he apparently parted with the castle and baropy of Corstorphine in favor of his sou
Alexander, who had a charter of these subjects from the king. The life rent,
hov/ever, was reserved to Archibald and his wife, and on January 2, 1493-94, he
made a similar resignation without reservation of the life rent of the lands of
Thirlestane, Coimty Berwick. On December 16, 1475, Hugo Bar founded a
chaplainry in Corstorphine for the souls of King James III and Queen Margaret
and Sir Archibald Forrester of Corstorphine, but the latter did not die until
1512 or 1513.
Archibald married first before February 1, 1479-1480, Margaret, daujrhter of
Patrick Hepburne, first Lord of Hailes, and widow of Patrick, third Lord
Haliburton, and afterwards of Androv/ Ker of Cessford. He married, second,
Agnes Tod. He left issue by his first wife:
1. Alexander, who succeeded.
2. Hector.
3. Marion or Marjorie, married first as his second wife, before June 14, 1493,
William, Master of Drummond, who died between July 1503 and July 1504;
second, before February 1507-08, Sir James Sandilands of Calder.
By his second wife, he had a son:
4. John.

Alexander Forrester of Corstorphine had a cliarter of the barony and castle of
Corstorphine on his father's resignation, probably about 1482, though the exact
date is wanting. On January 2, 1493-94, he, as heir apparent of his father, had,
along with his wife, a charter of the lands of Thirlestane, County Berv/ick, which
his father resigned in his favor. He is styled fiar of Corstorphine, May 29, 1512,
and of Corstorphine July 8, 1513. He had a charter to himself and his wife of the
lands of Clerkington, July 7, 151G. On January 16, 1527-28, he was infeft as heir
of hie mother Margaret Kepburne. On September 12, 1533, he had a confirmation
of Corstorphine with remainder to the heirs -male of his body, whom failing, to James
Forrester of Meadowlield and similar heirs, whom failing, to the other series of
heirs mentioned in the entail of 1430.
He married before January 1493-94, Margaret, said to have been a daughter of Sir
Duncan Forrester of Garden. He was alive on January 13, 1538-39, when he
resigned Corstorphine in favor of James Forrester of Meadowfield. He had a son
by his wife:
1. Sir Walter, who died vita patris before September 16, 1533, leaving two
daughters:
(1) Agnes, who married James Forrester of Meadowfield, afterwards of
Corstorphine.
(2) Janet, who on September 16, 1533, was contracted to the eldest son of
Sir Thojnas Erskine of Brechin, both being infants. The marriage never took effect.
James Forrester of Corstorphine, v/ho succeeded Alexander as laird, is generally
said to have been the son of the latter. He was, however, his grand son -in -law,
having roarried, as stated above, his eldest granddaughter. His son James is styled
pronevoy and heir of Alexander. He was probably the son of James Forrester of
Meadowfield, who appears as a v/itness in 1470. As James Forrester, of Meadow-
field, he had, along with his wife Agnes on September 12, 1533, a grant of certain
lands of Nether Barnton and others on the resignation of Alexander Forrester.
At this time, they both must have been children. On March 28, 1536, he had a
charter from James Douglas, Earl of Morton, of the lands of Fairliehope, County
Peebles, also on the resignation of Alexander. • •
He is styled fiar of Corstorphin?, in a charter to him of the lands of Freirtoune in
the regality of Broughton, County' Edinburgh, by the Abbot of Holyrood, August
25, 1537, ard on January 13, 1533-39, he had a charter of the barony of
Corstorphine on the resignation of Alexander Forrester and of the lands of
Thirlestane on the resignation of himself and his wife with reservation of life rents.
He was killed at the battle of Pinlcio, September 10, 1547.
His widow Agnes Forrester had a charter from Simon Preston apparently as his
future vife, February 4, 1547-48. James Forrester left issue:
25
1. James, who succeeded,
2. Henry, who succeeded his brother,
3. Isobel, married by contract, January 22, 1574-75, to James Baillie, younger
of Carphin.
"4. Elizabeth, married by contract. May 11, 1557, to David Mac Gill of Nisbet,
Cranston Riddell, and Drylaw, which last place she probably brought him as a
marriage portion. She died in Edinburgh on March 16, 1578-79.
He also had a natural son:
5. James, v/ho died Januaiy 1608.
James Forrester of Corstorphine and Janet Lauder, his wife, had a charter of the
lands of West Craigs of Corstorphine and Clerkington, February 5, 1555-56. He
is stated to have resigned these with the consent of his curators, which indicates
.that he v/as under age at the date mentioned. On March 2, 1564-65, he had a
charter of certain portions of the lands of Lauriston, County Edinburgh, with half
of the houses and gardens and the superiority of that portion of the lands which
formed the terce of Katherine Forrester, probably the widow of Thomas Lauriston,
on the resignation of his own brother Henry. He sold Lauriston on June 9, 1599,
to Archibald Napier of Edenbellie and his wife Elizabeth Mowbray.
On August 2, 1571, as Sir James Forrester of Corstorphine, he granted to Janet
Lauder, his wife, in implement of their marriage contract which was dated at
Corstorphine the previous day, the lands of Nether Liberton, Nether Barnton,
Easter Craigs and Meadowfield. It is probable that though Janet Lauder is
mentioned as his wife as far back as 1556, they were only betrothed then, and
that he did not married her until the latter date, or else, that it was a post
nuptial contract. On March 31, 1582, he bought from John Mossman, goldsmith,
the lands of Longhermiston and Currie.
James died June 4, 1589, when his brother was served heir to him. He married
Janet Lauder, daughter of Robert Lauder of the Bass, but by her .he had no male
issue. She married, secondly. Sir John Campbell of Cawdor; thirdly, Mr. John
Lindsay, parson of Menmuir; fourthly, Patrick Gray of Cransley, son of Patrick,
Lord Gray. He had one daughter:
1. Geillis, married by contract February 10, 1579-80, to Sir Lewis Bellenden
of Auchnoule, without issue.
26
He had a natural son:
2. Harry, apprenticed to Andrew Thomson, tailor, July 13, 1596.
Henr>- Forrester of Corstorphine was served heir to his brother, August 20, 1589.
On December 21, 1593, he sold to John Moreson, merchant of Edinburgh, the
Plewlands and Sacristan's lands, otherwise Broomhouse, the lands of Whitehouse
at Corstorphine and the hill there. In 1600, the minister of Gogar, William Arthur,!
insisted that Henry should come to his church for hearing of the word and resolving
all other benefits of the lurk. As Forrester had a very good parish kirk of his own,
he, along with the provost, deacons, elders and other inhabitants appealed to the
privy council, who sustained the appeal. He died after August 21, 1612, and before
July 30, 1618, when his son is mentioned as laird. Henry married Helen Preston,
said to have been of the Craigmillar family, who survived him and married
secondly before 1625, William Borthwick, elder of Soutray. Henry left issue;
1. George, first Lord Forrester of Corstorphine.
2. David, a very wild youth. On April 20, 1612, he came to the house of Nicol
Crawford in Nether Liberton, sought him everywhere to murder him, and missing
him, gored and slew a horse standing in the stable, for all of which he was declared
a rebel. There is another charge against him of getting drunk and making an
uproar in the street after ten p. m.
3. Henry.
4. John,
5. Sara, married by contract March 29, 1622, to John, youngest son of Thonias
Inglis in Auldiston.
6. Euphame, styled second daughter, February 12, 1620.
7. Agnes.

George Forrester as heir apparent of his father, had, along with his wife, a grant
of the lands of Clerkington and others November 15, 1607, He also, with consent
of his parents and his wife, resigned the barony of Nether Liberton in favor of
Mr. Alexander Gibson of Wester Granton, one of the clerks of Parliament, who on
August 21, 1612, got a royal charter by which these lands were disjoined from the
barony of Corstorphine and erected into a separate barony. On July 30, 1618, as
Sir George Forrester of Corstorphine, he had a charter of novodamus of the lands
and barony of Corstorphine by which the parish church was disjoined from the
Abbey of Holyrood and made into a separate charge of which patronage was conferred

In the following year. Lord Forrester resigned his peerage and obtained a
re-grant thereof July 5, 1651, with a simJlar limitation. Lord Forrester died
m 1654.
Here, in deference to Mstory and George, Lord Forrester's, part in it, we will
recount some of the events of his life and the misfortimes wl-dch b-^fell the
house of Forrester.
After the DarUamentar>' partj^ headed by CromweU broke off their understanding
with the Scots and the execution of the gallant Montrose followed that of Charles
I of England in 1449, the party of the Duke of Argyll became supreme in Scotland.
Charles II was acclaimed king at the Cross of Edinburgh on his consenting with
great reluctance to sign the covenant.
This forced Cromwell to come north with horse and artillery and ten companies
of the Monk's Regiment, now the Coldstream Guards. His objective was the
capture of Edinburgh. After pushing on from Berwick, he reached Musselburgh, but
when he attempted to make a direct attack on the capital, the Scots leader. General
David Leslie, kept him marching and countermarching. On August 13, 1650,
Cromwell encamped his army of 16, 000 men on the ridge between the Braid Hills
and Fairmilehead. His next move was to turn westward. First of all, he laid siege
to rtedhall, near Slateford. It was gallantly defended by the laird and 60 men,
although cannonaded for six hours. Cromwell also "encampit a great number of
his sodgeris about it with pike and musket, but to lytel purpose; for the laird and
the pepil in the house defendit ^/aliantly ever till thair powder failed; and after it
failed, they did not give over, ever lucking for help from our awin airmy, wha
was then lying at Crostorfyn, within twa myle to the house; of whas help thai war
disappointed".
It is obvious that if Leslie had tried to raise the siege, he would have played into
the hands of the enemy.
On August 27, Cromwell proceeded further westward with the object of cutting
off Leslie's supplies from that direction. Leslie's headquarters were at
Corstorphine castle, and his men were camped on the adjacent meadow.
"The Scots airmy being put in some readyness marched up to Crostorfyn hill,
but because the English feared it war too near the castle of Edinburgh, they would
not hazard battail there; whereof, both airmies marched to Gogar. " Leslie
entrenched hie nnen in the widespread marshy ground there, thus taking the English
cavalry at a disadvantage. When the English guns flashed, they were surprised at
the murderous fire of the cannon, which had been newly invented by the Scots'
general of artillery Colonel Wemyss. The battle lasted for several hours, and
after a loss of 100 men killed and wounded on both sides, Cromwell had to admit
defeat, and he retired by his "leager at Braidshill" to Dunbar!
One of the minor factors which led to his retiral was that he could not find any
fodder at Gogar for his tired horses as Janaes Baillie of Corstorphine. castle and
Air John Cov/per of Gogar House had had the foresight to order their servants to
harvest their crops a few days before the battle.
29
If Leslie's plans at Dunbar had not been spoilt by ihe interference of the clergy,
Cromwell would have been worsted by his opponent's strategy and compelled to
reembark for Enalgnd as he was on the point of doing. Now, however, he
advanced on Edinburgh, occupied it and Leith, and secured possession of the castle.
For the next ten years, the country was placed under martial law, the General
Assembly was dispensed, and the pulpits of the churches were occupied by the
narrov/ minded Puritan soldier-preachers. As a consequence, their warped
mentality heavily leavened Scottish life, and a marked decline set in as regards
the taste and beauty of worship and church. It has taken Scotland centuries to
make up the leeway.
During this period, Corstorphine fared badly. The laird and the minister had to
fly for their lives, and the church and castle of Corstorphine were to know the
Ironsides until August 1651.
While these "soldier saints" were billeted in the church, they wrecked their
vengeance on the interior. In particular, they defaced the effigy of Sir John
Forrester, the younger. They also laid v/aste the estate of the Forresters.
After the Ironsides left the village, the laird and the ministers were gladly
welcom^ed back by the people, and willing hands soon repaired the damage to
the church.
Evidently the strain of recent events had sapped the strength of Lord Forrester
as it did that of the minister, and they both died in the same year, 1654.
Lord Forrester married by contract November 27 and December 1, 1606, Christian,
daughter of Sir William Livingston of Kilsyth, and had by her the following children:
1. John, Master of Forrester, who married in 1634, Agnes, daughter of Sir
Alexander Falconer of Halkerton, and v/idow of Sir Alexander Keith of Benholm.
He did vita patria and s. p.
2, Helen, married as his second v/ife, William, tenth Lord Ross.
3, Margaret, married first to Alexander Telfer of Redhouse, burgess of
Edinburgh; second, to John Schaw of Sornberg.
4. Christian, married first by contract February 7 and 8, 1631, to James
HamilLon of Grange, with issue a daughter Christian mentioned later; second, to
John Wauch.
30
5. Joanna, married by contract December 15, 1649, to James BailUe, eldest
son of Major General WilUam Baillie of Lethame. They succeeded under the
above mentioned deeds.
6. Lilias, born September 18, 1634, married William Baillie, the second son
of Major General Baillie.
The manner in which Lord Forrester set his house in order has always proved a
mystery. Bj' a charter of r^larch 1, 1650, he practically disinherited his three
eldest daughters and handed over the extensive estates of Corstorphine, Saughton
and Torwoodheid to James Baillie, the husband of his fourth daughter and their
heirs, and such failing, to his brother William Baillie and his future bride, the
fifth daughter. That this coiu:se of action was not done hastily is confirmed by Lord
Forrester's resignation of his title a year later on July 6, 1651, when he obtained
a re -grant of the peerage in favor of James Baillie, who assumed the name of
Forrester and was known as the Master of Forrester until the death of his
father-in-law when he became James, Lord Forrester.
James Baillie, as was previously stated, was the eldest son of General Baillie of
Lethame by his wife Janet Bruce, Janet married, secondly. Sir Richard Nasmyth
of Passo and separated from him. General Baillie himself was the natural son of
Sir William Baillie of Lamington by a daughter of Sir Alexander Home of North
Berwick, whom Sir William afterwards married, but his son being born during his
former marriage was not thereby ligitimated.
After the death of the first Lord Forrester, James Baillie found himself in
possession of the title and the extensive estates of the family under the arrange-
ments mentioned above. In 1652, a son was born to them, but he died in infancy,
and Janet Forrester herself did not long survive.
Her husband married again before July 1661, Janet, daughter and co-heir of
Patrick, Earl of Forth and Brentford, by his first wife Jane Henderson.
A zealous loyalist. Lord Forrester v/as fined 2, 500 pounds sterling under
Cromwell's Act of Grace and Indemnification. But he was a man of extravagant
habits and dissolute life. He had seduced his niece Christian Hamilton, daughter
of the Hamiltons of Grange. Christian had married, contrary to the wishes of her
family, an Edinburgh burgess, James Nimmo.
Mrs. Nimmo was a woman of ^/iolent temper, and having quarreled with Lord
Forrester, she, on August 26, 1679, stabt 3d him with his own sword in the garden
of Corstorphine. He died immediately, and she was speedily captured and put in
31
prison. On September 29, she succeeded in escaping, but on the next day was
taken again. On November 12, she was executed at the Cross of Edinburgh.
James Baillie, Lord Forrester, had by his first wife Jonet Forrester, one son:
1. William, bom February 8, 1652, died in infancy.
. By his second wife, he had a family who all took the name of their mother, Ruthven:
2. Charles, born July 21, 1661, died young.
3. Edward, born February 19, 1663, an officer in the Life Guards. He is styled
Earl of Brawfoord (Brentford), October 12, 1674. This was the title of his
grandfather who died in 1651, but he had no right to it. He married Martha Temple,
who haa an allowance of 200 pounds a year out of the lands of Corstorphine He
died in 1682.
4. John, born May 9, 1666, died young.
■ 5o Clara, born January 16, 1665. She married first, October 11, 1683, Andrew
Dick, advocate; second, to Murray of Spot.
6, Patricia, born October 28, 1668; was living in 1694.
William Baillie, brother of the foregoing, de jure third Lord Forrester, was born
December 12, 1632. Under the re-grant of 1651, he was entitled to the dignity,
but never assumed the title. He married, as before stated, Lilias, youngest
daughter of the first Lord Forrester, and died in May 1681, having had by her a son:
1. William, who succeeded.
This William was the fourth Lord Forrester. His vote for a member of Parliament
was objected to in 1681, after his father's death, on the grounds that he was a peer.
He disclaimed his peerage, but as he styled himself Lord Forrester of Corstorphine,
he was ordered by Parliament and the Privy Council to reHnquish the title till he had
instructed his right. Then, but not till then, did he produce on August 31, 1698, the
re -grant of 1651, which v/as ordered to be recorded. The right under the re -grant
of 1651 does not seem to have been known during the lifetime of James, the second
Lord, as the pretensions of the latter to the peerage were questioned in 1676.
William died in 1705, having married before 1684. Margaret, born April 14,
1661, daughter of Sir Andrew Birnie of Saline, one of the judges of the Court of
Session. By Margaret, WilUam had the following children:
1. Andrew, born May 11, 1686, died an infant.
32
2. George, fifth Lord Forrester.
3. William, born September 6, 1689, died young.
4. Andrew (secundus) born March 27, 1692, a major in the Horse Guards,
died unmarried.
5. James, born October 7, 1695, a lieutenant in the navy, died unmarried.
6. John, a captain in the navy March 6, 1728. He was a commander of H. M. S.
Kinsale and died on the Isle of Pinos near Cuba, January 12, 1737. He married
Elizabeth, sister of Sir Charles lyrrel and had by her a son:
(1) William, v/ho succeeded as seventh Lord Forrester.
7. Janet, the eldest of the family, born November 21, 1684, died young.
8. Janet, (secundus) born October 28, 1690, died unmarried.
9. Margaret, bcrn December 6, 1694, riiarried to Patrick Haldane, advocate,
afterwards of Gleneagles, who died January;- 10, 1769. They had one son:
(1) George, was Governor of Jamaica. He died there unmarried in 1759.
10. Lilias, m?.rried to William Stirling of Herbertshire, County Stirling.
George, the fifth Lord Forrester, born March 23, 1688, succeeded his father in
1705 and voted at the general election of Scottish Representative Peers in 1706;
but as lie wap then a minor, his vote was set aside by the House of Lords. He
served in the army under Malborough. He was lieutenant colonel of the 26th
Foot (Camcronians) at the battle of Preston, November 13, 1715, and was wounded
there; he was colonel of the 30th Foot January 1716; of the second troop of Horse
Grenadier GraroF-., July 17, 1717; and of the fourth or Scottish troops of the same
regiment April 1719, in which position he remained till his death in France
February 17, 1726-27.
He rr'arried in or before 1724, Charlotte, daughter and co-heir of Anthony Rowe
of Oxfordshire. She was a lady of the bedchamber to the Princess of Orange.
She died in Holland in February 1742-43. By her, he had issue:
1. George, sixth Lord Forrester.
2. Carob'.no, Baroness Forrester.
33
3. Harriet, married to Edward V/alter of Stalbridge, County Dorset, M. P.
for Milborne Port 1754-74. She died in Bruton Street, London, March 5, 1795,
leaving one daughter:
(1) Harriett Walter, naarried July 28, 1774, to James Bucknell (Griraston),
third Viscount Grimston in the peerage of Ireland. He was created July 8, 1790,
Baron Virulam of Gorhambury in the peerage of Great Britain and died December
30, 1808. She died November 7, having had issue:
1. James Walter.

George, sixth Lord Forrester, was appointed lieutenant in the navy in 1735,
captain September 24, 1740, and commander in 1744. In March 1746, he was
tried by court martial and cashiered. He died unmarried at Staines, June 26, 1748.
William, seventh Lord Forrester, v/ho succeeded as heir-male, v/as the only son
of John Forrester, the sixth and j^oungest son of the fourth lord. He died at
Calne, Wilts, November 1763, having married a lady whose christian name was
Hannah. She survived him many years and died at Calne November 15, 1825,
age 84. Tney had no issue, and the succession opened, the heirs -male of the
fourth lord having become extinct, to Caroline, suo jure Baroness Forrester,
the elder daughter of the fifth lord.
She succeeded under the regrant of 1651 as heir of the line of the fifth lord.
She married her cousin George Cockburn of Ormiston, son of John Cockburn.
Cockburn had married as his second v/ife Isabella Rowe, sister of Charlotte
Rowe, the wife of the fifth Lord Forrester. George Cockburn was comptroller
of the Navy in 1756 and died at Brighton Jxily 13, 1770. The Baroness survived

CREATIONS
On Jvily 22, 1633, Lord Forrester of Corstorphine was created in the peerage of
Scotland; May 29, 1719, Baron Dundoyne and Viscount Grimston, in the peerage
36
of Ireland; July 8, 1790, Baron Verulam and Gorhambury, in the peerage of
Great Britain; November 24, 1885, Viscount Grimston and Earl of Verulam in
the peerage of the United Kingdom.
ARMS
These are not recorded in the Lyon Register, and many variations are to be
found. The chevron borne on his shield by Sir Adam Forrester was dropped by
the succeeding generations, and the majority of the sixteenth and seventeenth
•century armorial MSS. give the arms simply as Argent, three hunting horns
gules, which is followed by the draughtsman of the "Peers' Arms" MS. and by
Pont, save that the latter makes the fess sable. Nisbet gives the arms with the
fess gules as belonging to the Lord Forrester of his day. But another version
given in "Peers' Arms" has the following: Quarterly, first and fourth, paly of
six argent and gules, in a dexter canton of the first a gillyflower within a double
treasure flory counterflory of the second, for Livingstone and Kilsyth; second
and third, argent, three hunting horns sable garnished vert stringed gules, for
Forrester; overall on an escutcheon of pretence, sable, nine stars --three, three,
two and one, for Baillie.
CREST
A hound's head erased proper was borne by Sir James Forrester in 1547, but
in "Peers' Arms" above quoted, it is given in one version as a demi-goat proper,
chained gules, collared, horned and unguled and in another as a hound's head
erased or collared gules.
SUPPORTERS
Nisbet says that Sir Archibald Forrester's seal in 1482 had as supporters two
dogs. The Forman (Lyon Office) MS. gives the supporters as a beagle on the
dexter and a greyhound on the sinister, both collared gules, and Nisbet says that
these were the supporters of the Lord Forrester of his day. This version is followed
by the second representation in "Peers' Arms", but in the first are given two goats
chained, collared, horned and unguled as in the crest.
MOTTO
With the goat crest is given, "The deed shal show"; with the hound's crest,
"Blaw hunter, blaw thy horn".
37
We do not know if any of the flowers of Sir Adam's seed still flourish; we do
know that he had antecedents. We also know that he bore the nanae Forrester
with great humor and distinction of which any Forrester can be proud.
Certainly, the recording of his line will set the compass for future research.
The author is indebted to D. M. Thomson and to Sir J. Balfour Paul for much
of the narrative and the genealogy cited in this chapter.

Chapter III
FORRESTERS IN AMERICA
The preceding chapters show the general character and temperament
of the people who began the House of Forrester. The history of the clan tells
us that in Flanders and the British Isles, Forresters sprang from sturdy
stock which was blended down through the ages with noble and yeoman blood.
Through the blending of these bloods, the Forresters inherited the aggressive
leadership of the noblemen and the law-abiding husbandry of the yeoman. These
traits enabled them to take their place among others of the same ilk in the task
of carving a new nation from the Americas.
Many things must have influenced our immigrant ancestors to leave
their native lands. Like naany others, they must have surely been searching
for a better life --a life of freedom; however, aside from political consid-
erations, the full ownership of land was probably the predominating influence.
From the earliest beginnings, Forresters have exhibited a love for the land
and have established their roots deeply in the soil.
As we have seen in earlier chapters, the urgings for land started the
migrations of the most ancient ancestors of the clan. The need for land fur-
nished the impetus for the Celts and Teutons to leave Germany and migrate
to the Middle East, and from there to France, from France to Flanders, and
finally to England, Scotland, and Ireland.
If allowances are made for the difference in locale and the changes in
customs, the history of Forresters in America is merely a repetition of the
habits and general character of the ancients.
Here in America, Forresters followed the migratory trend which led
to the development of this country. According to the records available, the
first Forresters in Araierica came to four places -- Boston, Delav/are, Vir-
ginia, and Pennsylvania.
The records indicate that they settled mostly on the land. As the
coastal areas became more populous, their eyes turned westward. Being
met by mountains and hostile Indians, the original inland migrants turned
North and South.
Later, as the land toward the west opened up as a result of Indian
wars and the treaties which followed, Forresters gradually migrated to
all parts of the present United States.
The American Forresters have tended to exhibit three basic char-
acteristics; a love of the land and an innate sense of stewardship, an
acceptance of civic responsibility, and a love of freedom and the courage
to fight for it.
40
Even though the people of the family were originally children of the
soil, they have always been active in civic leadership and public service.
Since colonial days, Forresters in America have exhibited a propen-
sity to educate their children; consequently, we find Forresters today in
every walk of life. Numbered among the clan are ministers, missionaries,
doctors, teachers, lawyers, public servants, engineers, scientists, carpen-
ters, masons, nurses, merchants, and scores of other professions.
Like our ancient ancestors, Forresters in America have responded
to the call to bear arms in the defense of their native land. This applies to
the daughters of the clan as well as the sons. A number of Forresters have
been and still are professional soldiers of note, but as a rule, when wars
were ended, Forresters have mostly returned to their families.
Because of the vast number of Forresters throughout the United
States, it would be impossible at this time to write a composite history of
Forresters in America. No': enough time has elapsed since the first immi-
grant came to America to enable us to look at the history of the clan in
America in retrospect.
This retrospective history is being written now; posterity will write
the verdict. An expose of what this verdict will be is clearly indicated in
the chronological listings in Section 3 and the Public Service listings in
Section 4.
Our object here is to search out the ancestral lineage of persons
responsible for planting the seed of Forrester on these shores; therefore,
it is no doubt appropriate to list the immigrants to America, known to us
at this time.
1. WILLIAM FORRESTER
(Date is taken from an old diary of an E. A. Forrester written
about 1864. )
William Forrester of the city of Berwick upon Tweed was a minister
of the Church of England, a man of large landed property. On his expxilsion
from the Church of England in 1638 A.D., he returned with his family to
Londonderry in Ireland where he was rector of the Cathedral of St. Columby.
He continued in this office until his death and was succeeded by his son
Alexander in 1R76.
Alexander had two sons, Matthew and William The eldest (supposedly
Matthew) died in childhood. William moved to the city of Coleraine and was
mayor of that city for seven years.
41
!
William had three sons and five daughters. The eldest child died
in infancy, the second, Robert, had four sons and one daughter; the third,
Frederick had three sons and three daughters. William's other children
were Elizabeth, Martha, Mary, Ann, and Catherine.
Robert's children were William, Arthur, Alexander, Anthoi^,
and Mary.
Frederick's cMldren by his wife lone Gault, were William, Arthur
John, Ann, lone, and Martha.
Frederick's son Williana, and Arthur, liis brother, sailed from
Coleraine, Ireland, on August 29, 1762, and landed at New Castle on the
Delaware in America on October 27, 1762. (Note: This William is the
person from whose diary this data was copied. )
Leaving New Castle, William and Arthur went to New York,
arriving there on November 7, 1762. After a short sojourn in New York,
they moved to Redysfield in the state of Connecticut and settled there in
November, 1762.
2. WILLIAM FORESTER
(Data furnished by American descendents. (See Line C)
William Forester was born on the West Coast of Scotland in the
middle eighteenth century. When the American Revolution broke out, he
joined the army of ICLng George III. William was sent to the American
colonies in 1777. After fighting the rebellionists for a short time, he rea-
lized their trouble and joined them. After the war, he could not return to
his homeland because of the part he played in the Revolution. A short time
later, he entered into wedlock with Jennet McGhee, also from Scotland.
Jennet gave him ten children. (See Line C)
3. AARON FORRESTER - .
(See Line O)
Best available records indicate that Aaron was born in England and
that he may have settled originally in Hagerstown, Maryland. He iS shown
in the 1790 census to be in Horse Valley, Pennsylvania.
4. GEORGE FORRESTER
(See Line I )
George was born in England and was a clergyman of the Church
of England. He migrated to America and settled in Maryland.
42
5. Incomplete records indicate that a John Forster immigrated
from England to Ireland in the year 1680, and changed his name to Foster.
The source also states that :his three sons, Alexander , Thomas, and
William, came to America and settled in Lancaster, Co. , Pennsylvania,
The record suggests that these people belong to Line A.
6. TOBY FORESTER, 1655, transported by Mr. Thomas Ballard of
Gloucester Co., Virginia. (Early Virginia Immigrants, 1623-1688, by George
Cobel Greer.)
7. JOHN FORRESTER (Virginia Colonial Abstracts, Vol 19 pp50)
8. SEAGEANT and WILLIAM FOSTER, came to America in 1634,
on the ship, Hercvdt-s, and settled in Mass. (not authenticated)
9. THOMAS FORRESTER, of the Corstorphine Forresters, and who
was created a Baronet in 16/55, by James the First of Scotland, had a son,
Simon. Simon immigrated to America in a vessel commanded by Capt. Daniel
Hawthorn (a privateer). This Simon Forrester married Raechal Hawthorn, the
aunt of Nathaniel Hawthorn. Simon died without male issue. (Prominent Ameri-
can Families, copy on file Georgia Dept. of Archives)
A number of other Forresters by all spellings are numbered annong
the early immigrants to America, but in the absence, of m.ore detailed infor-
mation, thej'^ are not listed at this time.
For the benefit of future research, it might be well to remark that the
ancient Georgia Gazzette, printed in Savannah, Georgia, makes mention of a
goodly number of Forresters (ship commanders) engaged in coast wise
American shipping in early colonial days.

NOTE: The following genealogical data was furnished by Mrs, Lela Forester
Stafft of Cottonwood, California. The information was compiled by William T.
Foster of Washington, D, C. and was secured by Mrs. Delia Forester Clayton
and sent to Lela Forester Stafft. The data is included in a book published by
William T. Foster in 1916, copies of which were deposited in the Congressional
Library, Washington, D. C. , the public library in Springfield, Illinois, and at
St. Joseph, Missouri. It is being reproduced here, because it is the only line
which is available going back to the founder of the name. It will therefore serve
as a guide for research which may be performed by future generations. It will
also serve to show the practical application of the system of listing used in this
book.

WILLIS FORRESTER - LINE D (continued)
Commentary on D-7: Charlie Forrester was known as Scott County's "Best
Friend". Losing his mother at the age of four weeks, he was given the love
and care of his inaternal grandmother, Pamilia Holley Gains, who later mar-
ried a Mr. Stall. Charlie's grandmother was a devout christian lady originally
from. Virginia, and her christian teachings were the guiding light in his L^ter
life. At one time, Charlie Forrester owned all the land acreage in Scott Co.,
Ark. ; as a result, his name appears on nearly all original deeds in that county.
He was a great leader in the community and was widely known as a banker, mer-
chant, industrialist and financier. Even though he was a man of great wealth, he
was a friend to rich and poor alike. He was a christian gentleman and a devout
member of the Methodist Church, but his philanthropy reached all denominations,
as well as all segments of Scott County civic endeavor. Having been deprived of
a high school education, he had a determined purpose to see that the children of
Scott County v/ould have the opportunity to get an education. As a consequence,
he gave time, money and many acres of land for the purpose of building Scott
County schools. In recognition of his outstanding contribution, the people of
Waldron and Scott County honored him in naming the new elementary school
built in 1963, the "C. E. Forrester Elementary School". The people of Scott
County remember Charlie Forrester as truly "one of nature's noblemen. "

residing at 301, Kensington Ave. ,
N. Wilkesboro, N.C.
"After searching county records of
Wilkesboro, it looks asdf the John
and Charles Foresters were the
founders of the Forester Family in
Wilkes Co. - as Fielding Forester
apparently had no children. I v/ould
be enclined to believe he was a son
of either John or Charles. Charles
gave power of attorney in 1825, at
time he v/as living in Smith Co. , Tenn.
John and Charles could have been brothers.
Register of Deeds Office, Wilkes Co.

John Baillie (1767-1819), oldest son of Robert Baillie and Ann Mackintosh, had a
son Robert Granberry Baillie (1787-18 62) who returned to Scotland to claim the
family estate which came to him on the death of his uncle.
This estate was Culter (sometimes written Culter Allers) near Biggar, B.W.
Scotland. NOTE: In one letter it is Culter House, but it is never Coulter.)
Robert Granberry Baillie married Anna Baillie, daughter of Mungie Baillie
(Robert Baillie' s brother) and Ann Hodgson, his wife. Two sons were born of this
marriage: James W. Baillie (b. 1824) and John Baillie (b. 1826).
James W. Baillie (b. 1824) m, Minna : there were no children of this

letters ^were addressed to members of the Forrester family.
Robert G. Baillie' s letters mention the fact that the person to whom the
letter was addressed was living vrith his parents when they died in 1819.
James W. Baillie and his wife Minna came to Georgia to see their kin.
In one of Minna's letters (1876) she says they are going to build a house
and call it BAGBIE after the ancestral home in Scotland and after which his
grandfather named his plantation near Darien. (Letter written from Croydon, England.)
Robert Baillie of Georgia (son of Robert Baillie and his wife Catherine
Dunbar) was born in Scotland; died in Georgia after the Revolution.
In 1751 Robert Baillie married Ann Mackintosh at the home of her father,
John Mackintosh Mohr, near Darion, In Baldwin County, Georgia, history appears the
interesting story of their courtship written by one of the descendants, a great-
granddaughter of Judge and Mrs. Harris of Milledgeville , Ga . copied from old
family papers. An extract of the letter written by Robert Baillie in which he is
urging his suit and reminding his "Dear Miss Nancy" that "she had said she
had no objection to his person", and adds "that she can have none to his char-
acter". Her answer to him is intact and reads as follows:
"To Robert Baillie, Esq. , at Barrington.
"Sir:
"I have the honor of yours by Jack. As to answer, I told you here it
should be done in the privatest manner. I expect no person to be evidences but
my Brothers and Sisters you may acquaint them when you think proper. I remain

Greene County Ga. - History
NOTE: There are three Mary Forrester's
listed as being in Greene County Ga. abL
this time - they are - Z-35, Z-36 & B-265.
Since B-265 is proven by his will to be the
dau. of Joel, and Sarah Tatum Forrester,
it is thought that Z-35, and Z-36 were the
daus. of Willis (Z-34) and William (Z-33)
respectively. It is reasoned that neither
Joel , Willis or William would have had more
than one dau. named Mary.

A reasonable supposition is that Jane
could have been a dau. of B-1 who's will
suggests some minor childred not named
specifically as legartees of in his will.
This supposition is fathered by the fact
that Joel's proven dau. Nancy married
Jubal Watts, who could have been older
bro. of Harrison. (See B-268)

procedure is illustrated in the following statistics:

200 Memhes's of Forrester
Family Meeft m LeesbuFg
LESSBURG — Nearly 200 mem-
bers of a prominent Georgia fam-
ily gathered here last week to par-
ticipate in the first of regularly
scheduled family reunions. They
v.'ere descendant! o' JojI Forres-
ter, comintt to Lcesburg from
Southern states and the District of
Columbia.
Amons th»5 Forresters present
was E. L. (Tic) Forrester, a mem-
ber of the House; of Renresonta-
tivea from Georgia's Tlii.-d Con-
gressional District, cf which Le^:-
burg is a part. Others present in-
cluded attorneys, clergymen, busi-
ness and professional peopli from
Georgia, Alabama, Florida, and
North Carolina.
Ths Forrestfcrg are direct des-
cendcnts cf Scottish nobility. Tha
family settisd in ;',outh Geo'-Rla
naar tha beginning of th". 19th
Century. Many landmarks and
parts of history in thij section ara
attributable to the Forrs.-ters.
Ed w a r d Forrestjr, fun'turo
merchant of Leesburg, was elect-
ed chairman o' the rev^ions. A
committee was appointed to Jecids
on tha next reimlon date. Mrs.
Fred W. Forrester of Albany wrs
named secretary; 4ack iM. Forres-
ter, lcesburg attorney, treasurer;
George M. Forrester, L'j.
Grange oil p.gent, was named his-
torian.
A printed program, bearing tlie
Forresters' Scottish coat of arms
and a history of the Forresleri,
was distributed at the reunion.
Xh« Rev. R. H. Forrester of
Leesburg delivered the address of
welcome in the Leesburg High
School auditorium. Mrs. Edward
Forrester of this city wc:; tempo-
rary chairman, and Col. R. P.. For-
rester of Tlfton made -the response
at a Uincljeon.
Tho Forrester history shows that;
f'la name Forrester was derived
from the occupation ci the original
poscssrjrSi the keepfr of the king's
iorests in Scotland. The first name
on re-^ord wa.« A/illiam Forrester,
an iCiquire, v,-ho appor.red in the

"Forrester woman, Forrester g/--/
Forrester bcj avd man,
Heed the cry oj the Forrester call
It's the rieetins of the Clan."
by j'lnet forrester welsh
"I spent a week in Edinburgh, during the Festivrl and gatliered
some infonraticn wli'ch J hope will he helpful. T rugge't th.at If you
haven't done so that you read the Forrester genealogy in the Scot-
tish Peerage, edited by Sir J. B.ilfour P.-'.ul, Edinburgh 1904- 19 14. The
very complete genealogy for several hundred years after Sir Adam is
given in VoIumciV, pp 80-100. Forresters several times have been
married to Stev.'arts. I .assume that a Forrester descendant would
have a right to the Stewart tartan, as the claim pp.sscd through the
female line. There ire six d'fferent Stev/art tartons, however."
