My ancestor William Forrester came with his wife and some children in the
1700's. My great great grandfather, James Forrester was born in South
Carolina in 1769. His parents had to come to this country prior to that
time. L have names of his siblings but no dates of birth.
The story passed down is that William Forrester came with his family to
South Carolina and had to work for 2 years for a man to pay for passage.
They sailed from Ireland and I had always thought they were Irish but found

Am pondering the protocol regarding the wearing of the Royal Stewart
kilt. Some have said that only bonafide descendants of the royal family
may wear it which includes Prince Charles and his boys and the Queen
mother. I've never gotten any qualification regarding the wearing of
this kilt by descendants of Stewart bastard children. I don't know how

along with his stepfather he went out on his own. We know he did not come
from the TN area. The story goes that he was a new comer there. We
