Hello, I'm new to the list and posting my surname interests.

My grandfather was Max NAGEL, born London 1898. He married Elsie FORRESTER
and they lived in Leicester after WW1. Elsie was born in 1898 in Leicester;
parents Alice PEPPLER (1868-1906) and Edward FORRESTER (1858-1935). Alice
and Edward had four other children: Alice Maud, Cissy, Ted Edward, and
Thomas. Max and Elsie's daughter Dora is still alive, age 81, and would like
to know more about the FORRESTERS. We have recently made contact with some
wonderful NAGEL cousins living in Leicester, but they know nothing about the
FORRESTERS.

Dora believes that Edward FORRESTER had a brother, William Palfreyman
FORRESTER (died aged 32 in 1888), and two sisters, Mary Jane (married name
ODAMS, died aged 26 in 1887) and Alice Maud (died in infancy). We would love
to make contact with the Forresters - Dora was in England in the 1970s and
visited some of them, but has lost touch.

Thanks,
