i think i tried to contact you a couple of years ago, when i first saw your posting with familiar names.my grandfather was named elred washington forbis, sr., and was born in greensborough.my mother and uncle (elred washington forbis, jr., now in durham, nc.) remember an uncle johnny in indiana.my grandfather's other siblings were named jessie beatrice and pearlie may. my grandfather relocated to chicago, along with a friend whose surname was wiley (wileys and forbises apparently had been friends and intermarried for several generations).we know that we are related to the john arthur forbis who fought in the civil war and and the john and arthur forbis who fought in the revolutionary war.my mother's second cousin is current mayor of greensborough.
