I'm probably not related to Margaret Perkins by blood, despite my last name, but my wife is related to Bennett Forbes, by his son John Murray Forbes (brother of Robt Bennett Forbes, the sea captain involved in the China trade in 1830s and 1840s).A lot is known about JM Forbes and his descendents, and you probably know that RB Forbes' house near Milton MA is now a museum.
