1880 US: Can't find except one entry in District 147, Oktibbeha, MS, p. 346B, which shows a Fairby Clark, age 75, b. AL who is a grandmother in the family of James W. Clark, Single, 16, MS MS MS; with Aunt Bettie J. Clark, aunt, single, 34, MS AL AL; with sister Ida Phillips; with niece Mary Phillips, and two other nonrelated people: Lilos M. Starks and F.E. Gottseulig. I don't necessarily believe this is the right individual especially in light of temple work being done for her 1877, but I can't yet rule it out.

3. Samuel Newton Adair clearly links this individual by noting that her daughter "Jane" Clark is the niece of Samuel Jefferson Adair who in turn is this individual's brother. From Don and Carolyn Smith from one of three part writings of Samuel Newton Adair. [When asked who has the original of this, Carolyn referred me to Becky Hamblin [[email protected]] to try to locate the original of this; Becky in turn believes Collins Chapman in Mesa may have it since Collins' mother is the grandaughter who hand wrote it for Samuel. It has not yet been located by Becky. The following is one of the three parts [see Samuel Newton Adair's notes for full quotation]: "Luna, New Mexico, October 7, 1919. I, Samuel Newton Adair, will write what I know about my mother's folks. My grandfather's name was John Mangum and he married Rebecca Noles, so my grandmother's name was Rebecca Mangrum, my grandfather Mangum was a revolutionary soldier with General Morgan (one of his minute men.) He was taken prisoner with a lot of other men by the british soldiers and they set them on a log and split their heads open, all but my grandfather's and he had some kind of varmint skin cap on and that and the skull stopped the force of the sword and it glanced off and cut his ear nearly off and they turned him lose. He married after the war was over as stated above. Their children are: Cyrus Mangrum, Joseph Mangrum, John Mangrum, William Mangrum and James Mangrum. The daughter's names were: Jeney Mangrum, Gemima Mangrum, Rebecca Mangrum, and Lucinda Mangum. They were all my uncles and aunts. Joseph Mangrum married Emiline Hanner, William married Aunt Sally Adair, John married Aunt Mary Ann Adair, James Mangrum married Jane Clark, my father's niece. I don't know who uncle Cyrus Mangum married. Jeney Mangrum married George Crawford, Gemima Mangrum married Samuel Jefferson Adair, my father. Rebecca Mangrum married Joseph Adair, my father's cousin. Lucinda Mangrum married James Richey, my father's nephew." In this regard also note the following:

 a. Ordinance Index has an entry for Theuby Adair Clark with baptism 5 Jun 1877 at St. George per FHL film 170843, p. 110, ord. 2076 with relative listed as Mary Ann Adair Mangum. Need to look at this film. Mary is probably the sister and Theuby is probably Fairby/Pherreba. Ordinance date would seem to indicate a death prior to 1877. A marriage sealing on 7 Jun 1877 was also done and the original should be looked at for a relative and relationship. Robin Adair also reports an endowment date of 30 Sep 1877 which I have not yet verified.

3. From Don and Carolyn Smith, one part of three writings of Samuel Newton Adair. [As to source, Carolyn referred me to Becky Hamblin [[email protected]] to try to locate the original of this; Becky in turn believes Collins Chapman in Mesa may have it since Collins' mother is the grandaughter who hand wrote it for Samuel]: "Luna, New Mexico, January 22, 1920. I, Samuel Newton Adair, will write what I know about my father's folks. My grandfather on father's side was named Thomas Adair. He married Rebecca Brown. He lived at Lawrence County, South Carolina in 1806. My father was the oldest son of Samuel Jefferson Adair. Thomas Adair was the next oldest son. George Adair was next oldest son. John Wesley Adair was the youngest son and went with the Mormon Battalion in 1846. The girls names were Eliza Adair Price, Sally Adair Mangum, died on the plains in 1852. Mary Ann Adair Mangum married John Mangum." Surprisingly, this individual not on the list.

BIRTH: 1. Fairby was born between 1800 and 1810 considering her age as being between 20 and 30 in the 1830 census. Also in that census she has two children under age 5 meaning her marriage was probably circa 1825. She would have had to be born by 1810 or earlier. In 1810 she would have been 15 at the in 1825. Considering her brother Samuel was born 1806, her sister Margaret in 1807/1808, a sister Sophia believed to be circa 1810, and another sister Eliza in 1811, it is most likely she was the eldest child born after a marriage in early 1804 and Samuel's birth March 28, 1806.

2. I have in the database an Eliza Jane Clark who married James Mitchell Mangum and may be a daughter of Fairby subject to further research. Per Ordinance Index, parents are Samuel Clark and Phirley [Ferrely?] Adair; alternate is Daniel Clark and Theriba Adair.

3. Check pre-1880 censuses for the Clarks. Husband's name may be Daniel Deronda Clark?
