Found pedigrees - with comments
Many of these pedigrees have been shared with me from assorted sources.
All have "interesting" variants on subsequent research.
Please check your sources!

Oct 2016 snapshot of autosomal DNA matches detectable between lines of descent from John Fairbairn and Bessie Flint
NB table can only include those tested descendants who have uploaded their DNA results to GEDMatch.com (free) as that is the only place where results from all the main companies can be compared.

Scotland: OPR births 1538-1854
Earliest earliest OPR birth records by county for Fairbairn and variants

With the retirement of the World Families Network projects, thanks to GDPR, this page is a snapshot of the content as at May 2018.
It is intended that over time those pedigrees able to be found elsewhere on the web* will gradually be replaced with links to such sites where those interested can maintain themselves and/or into a tree on this site.

yDNA Haplogroup I-Y32666
https://yfull.com/tree/I-Y32666/

YDNA tree updated for Fairbairn Haplogroup I1 (FTDNA Feb 2018)
BigY results have been received for more of our matching Haplogroup I1 Fairbairns and related names.
FTDNA have reviewed the breakdown under I-BY21365 (itself under I-Y7277), providing two new sub groups, one for the Elliotts, one for the Lineage 1e Fairbairns, making the tree look like the hierarchy attached.
The other Fairbairn representatives are still at I-BY21365 awaiting any further BigY matches.
If you want to contribute to our finer understanding of the branching of the Fairbairns, please consider testing BigY at FamilyTreeDNA.

yFull v5.01 Fairbairn Lineage 1
Jan 2016 Update for the Lineage 1 (Haplogroup I1) Fairbairns on the yFull.com tree v. 5.01

yFull v5.04 Fairbairn Lineage 1
May 2017 Update for the Lineage 1 (Haplogroup I1) Fairbairns on the yFull.com tree v. 5.04

John Fairbairn

yFull v6.04.16 Fairbairn Lineage 1
Aug 2018 Update for the Lineage 1 (Haplogroup I1) Fairbairns on the yFull.com tree v. 6.04.16
Three lines of DNA tested Fairbairns are represented here:
YF13995 belongs to the line of Robert Fairbairn (marr. Crosbie) and sits up at the generic branch of the I1 tree assigned to all BigY tested Fairbairns to date - I-Y32666
YF14549 represents the Cockburnspath Fairbairn line, sitting at a new to yFull sub branch (I-A14330) of the above.
The remaining cluster under I-A14330 at I-A14340 are from John Fairnairn marr. Flint around Melrose, Roxburghshire

yFull v6.07.17 Fairbairn/Elliot Lineage 1
Nov 2018 Update for the Lineage 1 (Haplogroup I1) Fairbairns (and Elliots) on the yFull.com tree v. 6.07.17
Three lines of yDNA tested Fairbairns & two obviously related lines of Elliot are now represented here:
YF13995 belongs to the line of Robert Fairbairn (marr. Crosbie) and sits up at the generic branch of the I1 tree assigned to all BigY tested Fairbairns to date - I-Y32666 - awaiting another tester to join him and refine his branch
YF14549 represents the Cockburnspath Fairbairn line, sitting at a new to yFull sub branch (I-A14330) of the above.
The remaining cluster under I-A14330 at I-A14340 are from John Fairnairn marr. Flint around Melrose, Roxburghshire.
Two of the Elliots are included and sit on their sub branch of I-Y32666 at I-BY34592

yFull v7.05.00 Fairbairn/Elliot Lines
This newer (Jun 2019) version of the yFull haplogroup tree inserts a branch between our I-Y32666 and its previous "parent" I-Y7277, and slightly refined the time estimate for the TMRCA of I-Y32666 from 600 years before present (ybp) to 550 ybp.
NB present is defined as 1950.
The generic branch of I-Y32666 that (so far) includes all of our Fairbairn testers, and their matches, now has 3 testers awaiting refining matches to form their particular sub branches.

yFull v7.09.00 Fairbairn/Elliot Lines
This newer (Oct 2019), annotated version of the yFull haplogroup tree adds another result to the overall I-Y32666 generic branch that (so far) includes all of our Fairbairn testers, and their matches who have uploaded to yFull.
There are now 4 testers awaiting refining matches to form their particular sub branches.
It is expected that two will form a mew sub branch as FTDNA shows the Fairbairn (m. Redpath) descendant as matching the Fairbairn (m. Crosbie) descendant as sharing a separate lower SNP (I-FT144967)

yFull v7.10.00 Fairbairn/Elliot Lines
Dec 2019 update.
The yet to be annotated version of the yFull haplogroup tree adds another result to the overall I-Y32666 generic branch that (so far) includes all of our Fairbairn testers, and their matches who have uploaded to yFull.
The 4 ungrouped testers awaiting refining matches to form their particular sub branches were joined by a 5th, and 3 of the 5 have now formed their new subbranch of the newly names SNP ((I-FT144967 to FTDNA, BY156552 to yFull) with the time estimates for formation being more or less the same as all the other main subbranches.
