notes on the state of virginia
fairbank spent much of his time on evangelism through working with the local people. he taught agriculture and attempted to introduce more efficient practices and implements. he was also into music, translating hymns and transcribing them to make it suitable for local use, composing songs and teaching communities. in his spare time, he also took an interest in natural history, making collections of molluscs, birds and plants. he also made studies of some molluscs in life. he wrote notes in the gazetteer on natural history and his publications on the topic included a "key to the natural orders of plants in the bombay presidency", "popular list of birds of the bombay presidency with notes", "a list of the birds of the palani hills, with notes", "list of the reptiles of the bombay presidency, with notes" and "list of the deccan fishes, with notes". he collaborated with other naturalists including william thomas blanford who named a genus of a mollusc "fairbankia" after him although it is now a synonym of "iravadia". "achatina fairbanki" was named after him by william henry benson. blanford also named "trochalopteron fairbanki" after a specimen collected by fairbank from kodaikanal. he also corresponded on birds with allan octavian hume. a set of fern specimens collected by fairbank reside in the pringle herbarium (vt), at the university of vermont.
