In a message dated 99-08-24 22:18:31 EDT, you write: << Anyone have John and/or James FARRIS in Clark Co. IN in 1820? Charmaine Riley Holley arkivemom@aol.com >> I am a descendant of James Finley Ferris whose parents were John Ferris and Jane Tullis. James lived most of his life in Jay County IN, but all I know on John Ferris is that he was born somewhere in Indiana. Also the surname spelling varies from Ferris to Farris to Faris depending on the source. Let me know if this info is of any help to you.
