Ronda, maybe I can be of some help with your Forbes relatives. According to my records:
Zeruah Forbes was the daughter of Philo Forbes (b. 28 Jan 1785 VT d. 12 Jul 1821) and Nancy Johnson (b. 8 Mar 1787 d. 2 Mar 1881)
Philo was the son of John Forbes (b. 10 Jan 1761 CT d. 20 Oct 1835 Williston VT) and Ruth Merrill (9 Jan 1761 d. 1832)
John Forbes was the son of Elisha Forbes (b. 1731 Simsbury CT d. 11 Dec 1765 Williston VT) and Hannah Mills (m. 1755)
Elisha Forbes was the son of John Forbes (b. ca. 8 Dec 1695 Hartford CT d. 11 Apr 1759) and Abigail Westover (m. 15 Dec 1726 d. 29 May 1755)
Thanks for your information on Zaruah.
