Hello Wilburn, I noticed a recent St. Francois posting on the [rootsweb] mailing list that included a 1942 Desloge HS Grads Photo you submitted. The name Doris (Richardson) Waller (Mrs. John Farrell) caught my attention. I am a little confused by the 3 different surnames, and my interest is in the name John Farrell. A few of us have worked on the Farrow line for quite a while and have come to believe that the name has been interchanged with O'Farrell and Farrell. I believe John Farrell might be related to the John F. O'Farrell, who is listed in the 1900 St. Francois Census, which would mean that he is also related to Carl G. Farrow/O'Farrell: 1900 Perry, St Francois, Missouri David O'Farrell 45 Lulu R O'Farrell 36 Walter S O'Farrell 16 John F O'Farrell 13 Burnard L O'Farrell 11 Clyde E O'Farrell 8 Elizabeth A O'Farrell 7 Fannie O'Farrell 20 [Clyde O'Farrell 1900 obit: son of David and Lulu O'Farrell, lived in Detroit and was the brother of Bernard of St. Francois Co; his other brother C.G. O'Farrell was living in TX for his health; other siblings, Miss Elizabeth O'Farrell and her brother lived in St. Louis. Carl G. Farrow's 1934 obit: brother Walter Farrow of St. Louis and Elizabeth & Bernard O'Farrell, 1/2 siblings Carl's death rec: parent's Elisha and Louisa (Is this David & Lulu in the below census records - or did Carl G. have a different father?)] I would like to contact this John Farrell to see if he might know something that could fill in the gaps. Do you happen to know an email address for Mrs. John Farrell [Doris (Richardson) Waller], who was shown in the photo? If not, and you know of another way to reach her, would you be kind enough to contact me off-list? There are dozens of phone listings for John Farrell, and that doesn't include the numerous other listings for Farrows/O'Farrell's. I simply wouldn't know where to start to find the one who originated from this area.
