Unfortunately I don't know the names of Walter and Margaret's eldest son, which would likely give some clues as to his father's name, because the first child I know of is Margaret born 1696 and the second Margaret born 1700, and there must be one or two missing in between. There could be a William but I don't know for sure.
I have a few notes that I put in my tree a while ago:
Burial at St Cuthbert's Edinburgh 2 Jun 1757 - Walter Fearier a fermer from get sid(?) in ye parish of ratho 19t from so corner tinnties ston to so cor of old kirk the di?? age 97. Could be him? But his occupation is stabler on his children's baptisms.
Possibly a few generations back in this family - Edinburgh Register of Apprentices - Fairer, John, son to Walter F, in Bonytoun, with Thomas Weir, pewderer 5 Oct 1608.
Also a testament of a David Fairer 11 Jun 1638 in Corstoun, parish of Calder, sheriffdom of Edinburgh.
