David Forbes

Mavi Boncuk | This is the sticker (Ex-Libris = bookplate) on the inside cover of all the books formerly owned by David Forbes, and seems to be a created family emblem, with the image of the Forbes house on the hill in Buca, an image of fishermen possibly harking back to his Scottish roots and Scottish heraldic symbols with the words Lonach, possibly signifying family links to the Highland & Friendly Society founded by Sir Charles Forbes in 1823.
