			Andrew studied law at the University of Glasgow, was indentured and admitted procurator in Stirlingshire in 1870 and solicitor in 1873. For some reason unknown, Andrew's inheritance rights were placed under a trust by his mother, Margaret, in February 1876. The trust was administered by James Webster Barty, the family solicitor, and Mr. Thomas Carlile, chemical manufacturer of Glasgow. Barty was married to Anne Mowbray Boyd, a first cousin of Andrew Stephenson Forrest (she was a daughter of Alexander Boyd and Anne Catharine Stephenson, Margaret Thomson Stephenson's sister). Thomas Carlile was married to Jane McNair Stephenson, another first cousin of Andrew Stephenson Forrest. Jane was the eldest daughter of Martin Moubray Stephenson, Margaret Thomson Stephenson's brother. Both of these female cousins were about the same age as Andrew.
