I found the following on Genforum posted by "Washington County Native" in Feb 1998. Am searching for info on the family of Elizabeth FARR who obtained a marriage license Oct 23, 1816 to marry Owen Sullivan/Sullivant recorded in the Baldwin Co marriage records. James Farr purchased lands on Sept 2, 1811 (Township 9 Range 1 West) At this time this was either in Washington Co or Baldwin Co..it is hard to tell from the maps. In 1836 part of Township 9 fell into Mobile Co & by 1842 was back in the parent Co of Washington. 1810 Baldwin Co, Miss Territory Census James B Farr, 2 males over 21, 4 males under 21, 2 females over 21, & 1 female under 21. Any information is greatly appreciated, this could be my Farr family. Derrell Oakley Teat

Malvena married a "DORMAN" between 10-10-1933 and 11-26-1934. She had at least one child named Thomas DORMAN who lived in Savannah. Rozela FARR married someone named "HILL" in Savannah, although I didn't have the date ranges, but suspect it was about the same time frames as Malvena. Also, I found this in the Grantee Index C-D, 7-1-1926 thru 12-31-1944: William M. FARR to James N. CARTER, Deed 21V, #285. ------------------------------------------ Also, I found Mary C.

Stewart NETTLES and daughter of Robert D. & Mary Celia) There was no sign of a grave for either Thomas C. FARR or W. Stewart NETTLES. Hope this helps you some.

Howe, born 1859, Townshend, VT to a Harriet Howe. No father is listed on any documents I've located so far (Birth & marriage certs). Family stories indicate Emma's father may have been an Indian. Am suspect that Harriet was unmarried at the time of Emma's birth. Emma later married Luman Farr, then David Brockway. She died around 1936. Any info on her parents would be helpful as I've hit a brick wall.

Hope this helps someone. I was looking for family on the 1900 Census for Osborne, Kansas and came across a Farr family in Jackson. Looks like Washburne(b.1861-TN) and Lydia(b. 1882-KS-must be 2nd marriage) Farr with children Richard, Henry, Rhoda, Dollie, Emma, Cassie, Frankie and Elmer. Debbie

Hello Donald, Thank you for the information. I have a lot of bits & pieces that I picked up at the Library in Springfield, including a whole column of Farr births between 1772 & 1803. I also found a page of information left by a Herbert Farr some years ago. I have been in touch with Herbert's nephew, since Herbert has passed on, but he doesn't know anything about James either. Unfortunately, although all signs point to my James Farr b. before 1761 as the son of Joseph Farr of Acton, there is no one fact that makes it definate. If you have access to a FAX machine I would be happy to Fax the info I got at the library to you......or an address that I can mail copies to you.

I hope you are feeling better Andrea. Would appreciate your looking to see if one of your Margaret's married a Bowen. Thanks, and have a good day!
