2. | John Edward Fairbanks was born before 31 Aug 1862 in Kenilworth, Parish of Stoneleigh, Warwickshire, England, United Kingdom (son of Richard Fairbanks and Euphemia Thomson); died on 28 Apr 1938 in Toowoomba, Darling Downs Region, Queensland, Australia; was buried on 29 Apr 1938 in Toowoomba Cemetery, Toowoomba, Darling Downs Region, Queensland, Australia. Other Events and Attributes:
Notes: [Fairbanks-1949] claims that John Fairbanks was killed in the Boer War while serving with the British Military. However this conflicts with [QDoJaAG-1938a] and [QSA-1888a]. John married Elizabeth Lush on 23 May 1882 in Easky, County Sligo, Province of Connacht, Ireland, United Kingdom. Elizabeth was born about 1863 in Easky, County Sligo, Province of Connacht, Ireland, United Kingdom; died on 19 Mar 1954 in Gatton, Lockyer Valley Region, Queensland, Australia; was buried on 20 Mar 1954 in Helidon General Cemetery, Helidon, Lockyer Valley Region, Queensland, Australia.

3. | Elizabeth Lush was born about 1863 in Easky, County Sligo, Province of Connacht, Ireland, United Kingdom; died on 19 Mar 1954 in Gatton, Lockyer Valley Region, Queensland, Australia; was buried on 20 Mar 1954 in Helidon General Cemetery, Helidon, Lockyer Valley Region, Queensland, Australia. Other Events and Attributes:
Notes: Elizabeth (Lush) Fairbanks, her husband John Edward Fairbanks, and two daughters, Eliza and Mary J, departed from London, England on their way to Australia in 1888. [QSA-1888a] also notes that their origin was Warwick. Notes: Dates for the marriage of John Edward Fairbanks to Elizabeth Lush vary greatly across the Australian birth entires of their children. Sources [QDoJaAG-1891a] and [QDoJaAG-1891b] have the date 23 May 1882; [QDoJaAG-1892a] has 22 May 1882; [QDoJaAG-1894a] has 23 May 1883; [QDoJaAG-1900a] and [QDoJaAG-1902a] have 22 May 1884. On the assumption that John and Elizabeth’s memories would have been more accurate earlier in their marriage, and because it appears as frequently as any other date, this database uses “23 May 1882”, but a Irish marriage record should be sought.

4. | Richard Fairbanks was born about 1837 in (unknown) (son of Edward Fairbanks and Eliza Mann); died on 29 Dec 1885 in Templehouse, County Sligo, Province of Connacht, Ireland, United Kingdom. Other Events and Attributes:
Notes: [Fairbanks-1978] states that Richard Fairbanks was the ‘Chief Steward of the Temple family of Coventry’. This is probably a reference to Henry Lord Temple, 3rd Viscount Palmerston who was known to have estates in Scotland and Ireland, including Cassiebawn Castle and estate in northwestern County Sligo. However, most of Richard Fairbanks’ children were born in the area of Temple House Estate, the ancestral home of the Perceval family near Ballymote. In fact, two daughters, Beatrice and Margaret, are actually listed as being born at ‘Temple House’. Given these facts, it is more likely that Richard Fairbanks worked for the Perceval family in some capacity rather than for Lord Palmerston. Richard married Euphemia Thomson on 19 Nov 1860 in Kingsbarns, Kingsbarns Parish, County Fife, Scotland, United Kingdom. Euphemia (daughter of John Thomson and Margaret Kay) was born on 15 Nov 1840 in Kingsbarns, Kingsbarns Parish, County Fife, Scotland, United Kingdom; died about Sep 1908 in _______, County Sligo, Province of Connacht, Ireland, United Kingdom.

5. | Euphemia Thomson was born on 15 Nov 1840 in Kingsbarns, Kingsbarns Parish, County Fife, Scotland, United Kingdom (daughter of John Thomson and Margaret Kay); died about Sep 1908 in _______, County Sligo, Province of Connacht, Ireland, United Kingdom. Other Events and Attributes:
Notes: According to [Fairbanks-1949], Euphemia died at the age of 58 attended by two of her children (a son and a daughter) who then emigrated to Australia after their mother’s death--the other children having emigrated previously. However this is contradicted by [UK-GRO-1908a] and [LaAC-1913a]. The children that were living with Euphemia at the time of her death were probably Thomas and Martha, both of whom emigrated to Canada along with their sister Beatrice in 1913. Notes: Richard Fairbanks and Euphemia Thomson were married at the “Manse of Kingsbarns”--in other words, at the minister’s home or residence.
