Notes

Consistent with the so-called “birth” entry for his younger brother, 6 Oct 1865 probably refers to James’ baptism rather than his date of birth.
[Fairbanks-1949] notes that one son (unnamed) emigrated to Australia with one of his sisters, and that another son (unnamed) emigrated to South Africa to work the diamond mines. James is probably one of these two unnamed sons. [4]
A James Fairbanks of Hollybrook, County, Sligo, Ireland died 13 Feb 1889 and is listed on the same page as Richard Fairbanks (page 210, entry 17). A different James Fairbanks, age 77, died at Chillagoe, Shire of Woothakata, Queensland, Australia on 19 Sep 1942. He was an Irish immigrant who’s age at death is consistent with the younger brother of John Edward Fairbanks who was known to have emigrated to Australia. it is not yet clear if either of these is James Fairbanks, 3rd son of Richard and Euphemia (Thomson) Fairbanks. Additional emigration and Irish census records need to be located. [2, 5, 6]
