I was at the library poking around on ancestry.ca and downloaded about 12 Fairbrass images from the Canadian records.  I'm not sure if they relate directly to the people you are searching for now.  But maybe they'll be useful in the future.  I am always on the lookout for Mallandaines and file bits away until they fit in the bigger family tree (I just found my first Australian convict!!) so hopefully the same will apply here.

There are about 12 images in a zip file - which isn't permitted so I changed it to a txt file.  Try renaming the file to fairbrass.zip and opening it.  It should work but if not, pm me and I can arrange to email it to you.  There are some births, marriages, border crossings, etc.

Some of the names include:
Amy Dorothy
Bessia Louisa Elizabeth
Charles (about 10 ships crew manifests on the west coast from 1928 - 32 but I only dl one, also listed as Charles F)
James
James George
Lilian Mae
Louise
Marjorie
Sidney Wynne
William
William James
Malandain/Mallandain/Mallandaine/Malllindine - anywhere and everywhere
Corson/Causon - Gloucestershire
Nicholas - Pembrokeshire
Clark - Dumfriesshire & Kirkcudbrightshire
