Farrow is a bit of a Sheringham name- and there are a lot of them on the lifeboat memorial plaques. Just musing on whether they came from and went back to a fishing boat life. Not helpful I know .

I have been following this thread with great interest. The name Pharaoh has run in my line since the settling of Jamestown, and I feel sure that the name was originally Farrow, and was a surname used as a given name as a tribute to a maternal grandfather. However, Bardsley's Curiosities of Puritan nomenclature all but comes right out and says that my ancestor was from the West Riding of Yorkshire. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: xpn11 <xpn11@aol.com> Date: Sun, Jul 31, 2011 at 4:27 AM Subject: Re: [NFK] FARROW Lewis To: norfolk@rootsweb.com Farrow is a bit of a Sheringham name- and there are a lot of them on the lifeboat memorial plaques.

John The 1881 has them at 5029/109/11 under Stoker not Stokes and Louis and Robert as Correll not Farrow but living at the right place. Birth place for the Norfolk members is Knapton. Ancestry has a member tree which seems to have Harriet and her children as Pycraft/Farrow FBMD 1863 Harriet Farrow to Charles Pycraft The 1871 -4737/45/29 has a possible match for a Charles Pycraft and Harriet plus a Lewis and a Robert amongst the children. This is at Allerton Bywater near Leeds so some distance from the Durham village The tree on Ancestry may be a bit creative but the Knapton birthplace is a good lead. There may have been two Harriet Farrows, cousins perhaps-or she may have moved further north with a new miner husband. Or married three times. Did not find a death for Charles Pycraft/Pycroft. If it is accurate they have Lewis emigrating to the USA have fun cross checking and eliminating-- the Ancestry tree doesn't look to include Family Search Knapton PRs as a source.
