| Recruit (Relationship2Prove) |
The project would like to recruit a representative of Thomas's line to prove a relationship with John Fairbairn
(which would clinch the identification of the John married to Margaret DEANS as being the son John with Alexander in 1851. We aren't fussy, a descendant of Thomas' brother Alexander, who married Margaret WATSON, would suit just as well.).

| Researcher (Progenitor) |
John's line is being researched by Duncan Blachford. He is married to a descendant of John's and would like to prove that John is Alexander's son, and find any connections to other Borders Fairbairn families.
