Hi Joan it was lovely to hear from you. Maggie was my Dad's eldest sibling and I knew that she had married John Black and had a son Ian who died in infancy another son Eli James Fairley Black and 2 daughter's but didn't know their names or details. I have Maggie's birth and marriage certificates. That is all I have.
 If you are convenes reunited message me on there as that is where I keep my family tree.
I was born in 1949 my sister in 1946 and my brother in 1961.
Would love to hear from you.
Regards Margaret

Thanks for that Meg. I have Eli's death certificate and young Eli's, Ellen's and Joana's. I knew that he was killed in an accident in Foulshields pit. I have also visited the graves (the other one is Eli's Mother and Father, also in the same cemetery) I will be putting a headstone on in the future.
Could you tell me where you got the information from and whether you are a relative. I am still hoping to get in contact with cousins I have never met.
William was her son, Ellen's Dad.
If you have any other information I would love to know. Many thanks for your reply.
Margaret

A few more details of the family I am looking for. My Father Peter Thomson Fairley was born in Addiewell in 1917. He was the youngest of 11 children. His Father was Eli James Fairley and his Mother was Joanna or Joan Thomson. They lived in Loganlea then Stoneyburn. Eli's Father was Henry Fairley and his Mother was Jane Heath. My Dad's siblings were: Maggie, Annie, Jane, Charles, William, Jim, John, Bruce, Eli and Henry. All, apart from John who moved down to Liverpool, lived in or around West Calder and districts. I've been into Linlithgow records office and found quite a bit of information but need to tie up some loose ends.

Hi I have just returned from my second visit this year to West Lothian to try to trace my Father's family. I have had some success but need gaps filling in. Anyone out there who knows a Fairley from that area I would be pleased to speak to you. They lived in Stoneyburn, Old Rows, Dykeside Loganlea so obviously were miners. My Grandfather was killed down Foulshiels pit in 1917. Look forward to hearing from you all.
