    Notes:

    (Research):there is a mystery here!
    It appears that Carman may have been the son of Pascal Amell 1886-1923, died of influenza
    and
    Annie Echlin 1887-1922, died of Graves Disease (hypothyroidism).
    If this is the case, he was adopted by Stewart Forbes and Mary Jane Mather.

    Mary Jane would have been my Grand mother. My mother's name was Marion Lake.

    I honestly don't know really anything about my family history. My dad's parents died like I mentioned, well before I was born, and all my dad's siblings were broken up and taken in by different families.

    sorry Grandmother!

    Any chance Mary Jane was you mother with another father?

    Mar 09, 2018
    Not a name in my tree - yet! But you are a DNA match - fairly strong??? The Mather connection works with the prediction???

    Forbes was the adoptive name. I am not sure if my biological grandparents were siblings of Mary Jane or not. The biological last name was Amell (not 100% sure on the spelling )

    dianeduncan01
    Mar 09, 2018
    Was Forbes the adoptive name? Would the biological parents have been a sibling of Mary Jane?

    dianeduncan01
    Mar 09, 2018
    You are showing up as a close relative ???

    Mar 09, 2018
    Very interesting. Those would be my adopted Grandparents. My Dad (Carman) lost his biological mother and father to the plague, or some kind of epidemic of the time, and was taken in by the Forbes'. Thanks for reaching out!

    Parents of Carman Forbes were Stewart Elmer Forbes and Mary Jane "Minnie" Mather; Barbara, Nancy and David Forbes are showing up as third cousins in my tree.
