Notes

  • Note*: A William Fairman witnessed the 1747 marriages of Mary and Sarah Fairman. He is presumed to be their brother. As no candidate wife is named on the certificates, perhaps he married later. He is possibly the father of the two children whose deaths in 1756 and 1761 are recorded at the Philadelphia Monthly Meeting.
