Thank you for your response. I enjoyed the story of the 3 merchants.I was especially interested as merchant Fairley with the other merchants lived right there on High St. My Fairley family I,m told always livednear the castle. We lost my ggrandfather John there I understand around 1923?? His wife in 1905?? [Anabel] son George WW1. Daughter Annie emigrated to Canada 1908? but returned to Scotland 1915-1918 and stayed with father and cousins. Again right there in Edinburgh.-husband at war.Does anyone know this family?Have there been Fairley,s in and about Edinburgh for many many years [back to the Merchants]?Would love to learn more of Any Fairley,swith any possible info. Cousins may have been"CROWE,S or "HUME,S"one cousin on H.M.S. HOOD
* my John Fairley worked on or with railway.anyone??
Thank you David!!
