Answer 1

I think it most likely Mary was the daughter of John Ogden & Mary,  born 3 October 1800 & Christened 15 October 1800, Oldham, Wesleyan Methodist, Lancashire. ( England & Wales Non-Conformist Births And Baptisms).

Hi Mary,

As the person who uploaded her to WikiTree:

I suggest that you check out the FamilySearch link as well, at least for more on the descendants, who are my interest.

I didn't manage to find her after the 1850 Virginia census and haven't verified the 1860 census for the family as yet.

I suspect, but have not proven that hubby John Fairburn/Fairbairn, millwright of Oldham MAY be the John of Oldham imprisoned in the 1840s for having bigamously married in Prestwich-cum-Oldham a woman reported in the newspaper as Mary Oldham - which MAY be a mistake in the newspaper report.Certainly he and Mary married at Prestwich cum Oldham. But it does seem a tad longer than expected after 1829 marriage for bigamy to be caught out and prosecuted  and John's age is given as 40 in the report when he'd be at least 5 yrs older.

They emigrated around Jul 1850 according to son Elijah's naturalisation

John/Mary OGDEN is the only immediately obvious marriage that fits.

My interest here is the Fairbairn/Fairburn side as my quest is finding John's parents and DNA tested descendants :)

My paternal grandmother was Jessie Marie Fairburn. Her father was a tenant farmer in Ohio, Indiana Oklahoma and Florida. I would have to look up any further information. In the mean time hello and good luck on your search.
