I'll post some stuff here first in case someone else is currently researching the family and can help out or take something from it.
My wife's line of Forquerans:

First one in the Forqueran line for whom I have found much information is Peter Forqueran Sr. born abt 1712 in Virginia, died around Jan 1798 in Bourbon Co., KY. He married Joice (sp), maiden name unknown.
