  General Notes

Note: Patrick Forrest and Peter Kirk Forrest.  I have a strong suspicion that Patrick Forrest and the Peter Kirk Forrest who later shows up in Australia are the same person, but there is no definitive proof at this time (other than the lack of evidence for Peter anywhere in Scotland).  Aug 2014, kmh.
