BDMs
John Fairbairn was born on 25 Aug 1839 Ramsay, Bathurst, Upper Canada (ONT), CAN, Despite the "entry by desire" that father John had entered into the Greenlaw Parish Register stating that son John was born 25 Aug 1837, the family have a bible, and an 1839 letter from the Rev John to Mary's family detailing the successful birth of John. I think that wins on the evidence stakes - and 1839 tallies better with his age in he 1851 censusEntered in Greenlaw Register Dec 1846: "Entered by desire, John son of Rev. John FAIRBAIRN Minsiter of Free Church Greenlaw & Mary WILSON, formerly Minister of Ramsey, Bathurst Upper Canada where his son John was born on 25 Aug 1837", so much for family memory 7 years after the actual 1839 birth.4,5,6,1
