The Forbes family is one of the components of the Boston Brahmins—they are a wealthy extended American family long prominent in Boston, Massachusetts. The family's fortune originates from trading opium and tea between North America and China in the 19th century plus other investments in the same period. The name descends from Scottish immigrants and can be traced back to Sir John de Forbes in Scotland in the 12th century. Family members include businessman John Murray Forbes (1813–1898), part of the first generation who accumulated wealth, and politician John Forbes Kerry (born 1943).

  • La famille Forbes est une famille fortunée américaine originaire de Boston. La fortune familiale a débuté au cours du XIXe siècle par le commerce, principalement d'opium, entre l'Amérique du Nord et la Chine, puis dans le chemin de fer entre autres investissements. Le nom vient d'immigrants écossais dont la première trace sur le sol américain date de John Forbes en 1740. Il descendrait de Sir John de Forbes, lié au clan Forbes dans le nord-est de l'Écosse au XIIe siècle. (fr)
