Ednam blacksmiths - Sth African connection
This conversation on RootsChat has led to connections being made and the Ednam blacksmith's tree of Edward & Jean (DAVIDSON) FAIRBAIRN being updated, particularly for Edward the tailor who arrived in Australia in 1838, but died in Swellendam, Sth Africa in 1859.

Lineage added
The lineage for our newest recruit, Doug (F-14) has been added to the Patriarchs page.
As noted on his ancestor Archibald's page, given Archibald was a blacksmith, I wonder if he'll turn out to be one of the Ednam smiths who moved south (then West somewhat, to Ontario).
Given Jane was head of the household in 1871 in Erin, Wellington Center, Ontario, I presume Archibald died sometime between 1860 and 1871, probably prior to compulsory registration in 1869.
