Hi All I am trying to trace the family of my great grandmother Jane Fairbairn. She was born in 1847 and her parents were John Fairbairn and Helen (nee Ross). Her parents were married in 1842 in Coldstream, Scotland. There has been a strong connection with the army throughout the family. John served in the Crimean War and I have a copy of a faded photograph showing him with Jane returning from the war. I am also trying to trace a James Ross Fairbairn who is related to Jane in some way. James was born 1869, son of James Fairbairn. He married a Helen and he served in various regiments up to and including the 1914-18 war. He was awarded the OBE in 1919. Doug Peters
