Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Among the descendants of Abel Fairbanks I fail to find any very marked peculiarities. I find no musical talent. In creed they are mostly Congregationalists. The various trades and occupations are fairly represented, and many of them are noted for their industrious, persevering habits, and I presume all are noted for their love of law and good order. In my travels through the West and Northwest this season, I failed to find any trace of the descendants of Rufus Fairbanks Rev. H. F. Fairbanks, of Milwaukee, thinks he descended from Jonas, the son of Jonathan, but is not positive. Within the two hundred and fifty years from Jonathan’s time, eleven generations have come upon the stage; many of them have stepped off to make room for others. The venera ble Sir Thaddeus is the only one of his generation that I know of, that is living to-day.
