The Farish Family
Faireis, Kerse of Kendill
Name: FAIREIS
Surname: Faireis
Sex: M
Note: The name Fara originally meant a traveller, and the termination "is"
or "ish", was a designative suffix meaning "of the nature of", or "Belonging
to". The whole name, etymologically, meant "The Traveller who belonged to,
or lived hard by, the water." The word, "Traveller" in ancient days when
surnames where adopted, meant soething differnt from our present ideas
associated with that word. Travel then was hard to undertake and rarely
undertaken except by the knigts and Retainers who went to war, and by the
Pilgrims who made journeys to the holy Land. The term "travelleer" was,
therfore, eally a title of honor, as means of transportation were few and
the danger of travelling great. The grant of Coats-of-armour to the family
is registeed under the name of "Fariseau", in Flanders, and was issued 13
August 1698. The family was ennobled and raides to the rank of Chevaliers 23
August 1699. On the translation of the family to England, which took place
just prior to 1700, the final "h" for the sake of euphony in English
pronunciation. Thus the pesent spelling Farish. Almost every British surname
has undergone similar evolution. Such changes in spelling and pronunciation,
made by different branches of the family where not identenical, hence the
forms of Faris, Farris, Farish, and similar spellings.
Birth: in Kerse of Kendill, Dumfries, Scotland
Note: The holdings of this family was in Dumfries in what is commonly called
the Kerse of Kendill (Kerse later called Carse) and is located in the
southern portion of Scotland on the border with England. The name was
spelled in many different ways: Fayrish, Fairis, Fareis, Faris, Fairess, and
others. The family were cattle and sheep raisers and from many accounts, the
word "Raider" might have been more appropriate than raiser.

My father Lawrence Buckner Farish Jr. told me lot's of old stories about his life growing up as
a boy down in Alabama. One of them about his "pet bear". It seems as though "LB" and his
dad were out fishing in the Alabama river and a black bear cub was hanging on a tree limb over
the river. When the boat got underneath the cub, it fell in the boat. They kept the bear and
"LB" became attached to the bear and his dad chained the bear up on the side of the house!
Dad said the school kids would come by his house after school to see the bear, but soon
began picking at him and throwing rocks at him, and he got too mean and worried his dad
that it might get one of the kids so they sold the bear to the circus.
