Surnames: FAIRBAIRN Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/QdV.2ACIB/111.1 Message Board Post: I may have a connection with a George Fairbairn, born about 1830 in Oldhamstocks, East Lothian. I'm trying to find out if he is the same person as the George Fairbairn who subseqently married my great-grandmother, Mary Ann Hird, in Hartlepool ( County Durham ) in 1854. Any leads would be most welcome!
