Member Since: December 2004 Posts: 12 Send Message	Jessie Hope FAIRBAIRN - Trying to find any information about my grandmother's relatives. She was born on 7 Mar 1886 at 40 North Back Canongate, Edinburgh, Scotland. Her parents were Thomas FAIRBAIRN (b. c.1854 Galashiels) and Margaret Moir STEWART (b.1864 Abbeyhill, Edinburgh). She married Albert Edward WATT on 17 Dec 1917 and lived at 9 Meadowbank Terrace, Edinburgh. They had a daughter Margaret Stewart Fairbairn WATT in 1918 and then came out to Australia in 1919-1920, where my dad George was born in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. Her siblings that I have identified so far are: Robert FAIRBAIRN b.1884 Agnes Stewart FAIRBAIRN b.1888 Thomas Stewart FAIRBAIRN b.1891 James FAIRBAIRN b.1898 John Stewart FAIRBAIRN b.1900 Peter Stewart FAIRBAIRN b.1902 William Stewart FAIRBAIRN b.1902 Charles Hope FAIRBAIRN b.1904 I am interested in ANY information on any of her family or ancestors and am wondering if there are any living relatives in Scotland. Hoping that someone can help! Regards Gloria J Moloney (nee WATT) Caboolture, Australia
