Jacobite Prisoners

My 6th great grandfathers were arrested at the Battle of Preston in 1715. Is it possible to obtain any information on these prisoners??? If so, can you tell me where??? Thank you in advance. Mary

were there any Forbes in the uprising ?

Jeanne,
I found Thomas Forbess and George Forbess listed on this web site:
freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~ruthann/ ships/jacobiterebels.htm
Both of my 6th great grandfather's were listed on this site:
istg.rootsweb.com/v2/1700v2/goodspeed17161018.html.
You will find a great deal of information on: http://www.google.com
Just type in "jacobite prisoners".......you will find more at "Battle of
Preston".
I have written several inquires and have received answers that would be very
helpful to
anyone who will be making a trip to England. I will be happy to share this
information with
anyone who wants it. Contact me directly: marynpazur@mindspring.com
By the way, I am descended from Alexander Forbes born about 1380 and
Elizabeth (Mary)
Douglas born about 1385. Is this your Forbes line???
Hope this helps. Mary Nelson Pazur
