Looking for any information on a Major (or Lt Col.) Robert Blair Cochrane Forster born 1861 in Scotland. He was probably Royal Artillery.

Not yet found any ww1 military records for him.

1911 Census courtesy FMP - note R.A. Blair Cochrane is given as his names.

  • RussT changed the title to Major Robert Blair Cochrane Forster

The RA Forster is his brother Archibald. The arrival list is him. 

I think he was R A because of what his grandson has told me. He may have something to do with artillery training with the CEF at Valcartier.

Thanks for finding that.
