I love family history, and have worked on the Porter family for about 30 years. I did look in Eugene Farr's book, for the information. There was a Richard Farr that married a Morgan, if this was what you were searching for. Give me some dates for the marriage, and I will be glad to search the marriage record books for you, for Chickasaw County. Thanks Robert

How do I contact the Methodist Church you spoke of? The Prospect Church no longer exists as such, right? So, your records in the Historical & Genealogical Society are all we have to access? Maybe I should try the land records here in Collin Co to see when he settled here? Again, I surely do appreciate your help and the help others of this line have provided in the past. I feel sure that my Richard is somehow related. Thanks again, and hope to hear from you again soon. You can email me direct at ropycomp@swbell.net . I am in Dallas Co if I can be of any help to you'all.

Most of my Farr family was Methodist, and members of that Church. I have a layout of the Cemetery in my possession, but do not know where the old church records would be for the Prospect Church. If I asked enougn questions, I might could locate them. The marriage record information that I gave you the other day, Richard and a man by the name of J. M. White signed the Marriage Bond, ceremony performed by S. M. Cole minister of the Gospel, this was from marriage book 4, page 169. By the way I am a member of the Chickasaw County Historical and Genealogical Society, and will see what other info I can come up with. Thanks Robert

They are buried in the family plot in Cleburne, Johnson Co., TX. Eugene Farr's book is what led me to believe that John Henry might be the one. The Farr Family Reunion in Chickasaw Co Ms in Sept 2003 led me to an elderly lady that I talked to by phone who told me about "cousin Richard" after the War. She also said there were several Morgans in the area. Henry Morgan 1813-bef 1870 Chickasaw Co, MS. and Elizabeth Floyd abt 1818-1880 Chickasaw Co., MS married 6 July 1837 in Newton Co, GA. The came from Oglethorpe Co, GA. Tell me more about yourself and your connections. I need to know something about the churches in the area as Richard's family was active in Texas. Maybe you could give me a way to contact the Churches that existed at that time. Thanks for answering and I hopefully await your reply, Karen

Looking for date and place of death for a Lorenzo Dow FARR who was born in Va. about 1807 and is found in Carroll county, Mo before 1840. He had a wife Mary (possibly Allen) who died in 1852. He may have had a son also named Lorenzo D. I can track the son but not the father. The father may have died before 1880 but I can not find a place nor a date. Kay

So many Lorenzo Farrs... These Farrs are not identified as Northern States Farrs in my family tree. In my tree I have listed: Lorenzo Farr (son of Abel Farr b 1771 in VT) No data. Lorenzo Farr b 11 Mar 1809 in Littleton, NH d 25 Nov 1884 Lorenzo Erickson Farr b 25 Oct 1858 in Ogden, Weber, UT d 24 Sep 1915 Lake Tahoe, Placer, CA A quick search shows a Lorenzo D. Farr b.abt. 1802 in Clay Co., KY d.est. 1835-1897 m Mary Allen b.abt. 1806 married on 24 Oct 1830 in Clay Co., KY Also a Lorenzo D. Farr m Martha Brickens on 12 May 1853 in Carroll, MO. No further data.. I would recommend your contacting Eugene Farr (who resides in MO) <FARR@l1.net> who has many records for the Southern States Farrs. Donald E.

Thanks for replying! Well, I know for sure that my Luman was b in 1805 and died in 1852 in Ripton, VT. He had 6 children from his first marriage and 4 from his second (our line). I have no idea who his parents were. I know the dates for our whole line up to him. If you want all the dates and names etc. let me know. If Luman is a family name then maybe we have more names in common to find a link. My Luman is much earlier than yours so he would be contemporary with Samuel, perhaps as you say brothers or cousins. I have seen Samuel in at least one census in Townsend Vt during my own searches, is that close to the Ripton area? I will keep searching and if I find out more about my Luman's parentage I will let you know and I hope you will do the same! Keep in touch!
