Link to father
- Father is assumed to be an Archibald from naming pattern - eldest known/believed son is an Archibald
- yDNA matching confirms his connection to John and Bessie (Flint) Fairbairn's family
- He is a different Archibald from the son of Robert Fairbairn & Agnes Landreth (as that Archibald married Mary Grierson), so belongs to another line down from John - although technically it could also be from a sibling or other relative of John's.
- This latter option would be pushing the limits to explain the number of autosomal DNA matches we have between the (presumed) descendants of John and Bessie though. Henderson-2297 22:30, 3 August 2017 (EDT)
