Mary married James Simpson in August 1896 in Wooler, Northumberland, ENGLAND.1 2 (James Simpson was born in 1863 in Wooler, Northumberland, ENGLAND 2 7 and died after 31 March 1901.)

NOTE - I have not determined who the 7 year old Thomas Fairbairn was. Mary had a younger brother with that name but his age would have been about 30 at the time of the 1901 census. It is possible that Thomas may be a son of Mary, born prior to her marriage to James Simpson. [Brian L. Lightfoot]
