During my one-name study research I have found Fairbrass in Canada. I should like to know what happened to them and whether there are living descendants. Key names - Frederick John Fairbrass & Susannah Evans children Lydia M, Frederick J [wife Anna S son George F W], William Henry, Thomas, Suan. Thanks in anticipation.

Hi LemonMallie, Yes Cornelius and Louisa are of interest - they are on the same branch as the others and arrived in Canada about 1893 so census info on them etc would be appreciated
Info I have:
Frederick John Fairbrass - a tailor 1851 directory for Penetanguisene Ontario - on 1870 United States Federal Census as John Fairbrass 64 wife Susanna 61 [Post Office: Jackson Roll; M593_438 page 40 image 81
1880 Census for Troy Doniphan Kansas - Family History Library Film 1254379 NA film number T9-0379 page number 575B as Frederick and Susan
Daughter Lydia M Fairbrass married 28 Feb 1851 St James on the Line Penetanhuishene Ontario to Stephen Jeffery
Son Frederick J Fairbrass listed in American Civil War Soldiers and USA Census for 1880 -1900 Michigan so looks like I may Have to try USA rather than Canada for what happened to them.
Son George F W Fairbrass in Chicago Cook Illinois in 1930 U S Federal Census.
However daughter Susan born c. 1848 Isle de Montreal Quebec
Key dates in Canada look to be 1840 -1850 so maybe not much to find but anything appreciated, Thanks.

Hi Lynwen Many thanks for all your help. Yes it does look like conjuror - he was a Metropolitan police officer in 1891 so a bit of magic must have happened!!!! I will now look at the info from the sites you have provided and no doubt will have more queries. Again thanks. John
