Charles FARR [Parents] [scrapbook] ^{1, 2} was born ³ on 29 Apr 1760 in of Chesterfield, Cheshire, New Hampshire, British Colonial America. He died on 6 Mar 1832 in Brandon Center, Franklin, New York, United States. Charles married ^{4, 5} Sarah Anna TITUS ⁶ on 12 Oct 1780 in Douglas, Worcester, Massachusetts, United States.

Charles resided ⁷ in 1790 in Chesterfield, Cheshire, New Hampshire, United States. He resided ⁸ in 1810 in Chesterfield, Cheshire, New Hampshire, United States. He resided ⁹ in 1820 in Townshend, Windham, Vermont, United States.

I don't see any proof that Charles had daughters by the name of "Elvira Regina Farr" or "Mary Laura Farr". I believe that they belong to Caleb Farr.

Soldier: 1777, Rev. War Vet. On 7 May 1777 list of Capt. Waitstill Scott in Col. Ashley's Regiment, Chesterfield, Cheshire, NH, men as a Private.

Removed to New York(probably to Malone or vicinity) about 1812.

Charles Farr was warned out of Vermont along with his wife Sarah, and Calvin Farr, Caleb, wife Amey, and Charles, Laura, Chauncy, and Mary.

Sarah Anna TITUS ¹ was born ^{2, 3} on 5 Mar 1756 in Douglas, Worcester, Massachusetts Bay Colony, British Colonial America. She died on 5 Feb 1825. Sarah married ^{4, 5} Charles FARR ^{6, 7} on 12 Oct 1780 in Douglas, Worcester, Massachusetts, United States.

Samuel FARR Jr, 2nd [Parents] [scrapbook] ¹ was born about 1739 in of Stow, Middlesex, Massachusetts Bay Colony, British Colonial America. He died after 1800 in Chesterfield, Cheshire, New Hampshire, United States. Samuel married ² Mary about 1770.

Samuel resided ³ in 1790 in Chesterfield, Cheshire, New Hampshire, United States. He resided ⁴ in 1800 in Johnson's Gore, Windham, Vermont, United States.

Styled the "2nd" in the tax records to avoid confusion with other Samuel Farr's. It is not an indication of generation!

There is a marriage record in the Chesterfield records of a Samuel Farr marrying a Suffina Bowker 10 Mar 1788, but there is no proof that this is the same Samuel Farr.

From Vanessa Herring:
On 11 Apr 1791, Samuel Jr/2nd and wife Mary sell part of Lot 9, 13th Range in Chesterfield to Ephraim Wheeler. Both Samuel and Mary sign the deed. (Samuel 1st is known to have purchased Lots 9 and 11, in the 13th Range in Chesterfield in 1764.) Nine days later, Samuel 2nd also sells a part of the same lot to his brother Charles. It seems likely that Samuel 1st has died and his lands were passed to Samuel Jr/2nd, or were divided among all of his children.

Also on 11 Apr 1791, Samuel and Mary buy land in Dummerston, VT, the east part of Lot 119 (50 acres), witnessed by Lucas Wilson and Ephraim Wheeler (my family). The other half of this lot was owned by Abraham Farr Jr.

In 1796, Samuel and Mary sell their part of Lot 119 in Dummerston to Abraham Farr (8 acres) and John Reed of Putney (remainder of land). At this time Samuel 2nd is about 54-58 years old.

In the 1800 US Census, the following Farrs are found in Johnson's Gore, Windham Co., VT: Samuel Farr  00001  00001; Samuel Farr Jr/2nd and wife Mary, Samuel about 58-62 years old.

Mary was born about 1741 in of Chesterfield, Cheshire, New Hampshire, British Colonial America. Mary married ¹ Samuel FARR Jr, 2nd ² about 1770.

I have Samuel Farr Jr/2nd of Chesterfield and wife Mary for Samuel III's parents. This is supported by Samuel III's marriage intentions describing him as being of Chesterfield. 

Mother Mary's maiden name is said to be Davidson or Davison by some trees on the Internet and Ancestry, but I have not found any evidence to support that as yet. It's probable that Samuel Jr. married in early Chesterfield, before marriage records were recorded there, starting in 1773. Samuel 1st bought land in Chesterfield in 1764, and Samuel Jr/2nd would have been in his early twenty's then.

There was an Ebenezer Davison in Chesterfield 1767, children not listed in History of Chesterfield. He was a selectman. Also, John Davison (Wife Zerviah) came in 1770, but a daughter Mary is not found in the list of his children.

It is indeed a mystery as to who the parents of Ephraim Farr Sr. of Chesterfield were. Very little to go on. He was of Westminster when he married Elizabeth Cobleigh of New Braintree. But, no other Farr's found in Westminster so far. Another odd thing is that I have not been able to trace any of Ephraim and Elizabeth's children besides Ephraim Farr Jr.  Ephraim Farr Jr. married Phoebe Robbins. So neither Ephraim married a Nancy Graves. In fact, it was Samuel Farr III who married Nancy (Graves) Knowlton as his third wife.

ELMER AND GEORGIA (GRANT) FARR
Elmer and Georgia (Grant) Farr came to Fayette County in the early 1900s to a farm northeast of Waucoma from Vernon County, WI. Their children were Carol, Clifford and Donald E.; Ralph died in infancy. Carol was a school teacher and later married Fritz Krause; they farmed near Renwick, IA. Clifford (1897-1971), a buttermaker. married Jessie Brooks (1897-1996) of Ottumwa, IA. Their daughter. Martha (Farr) Pittman married Everette Pittman (1926-1971). Col. Donald Elmer (1910-1966), an engineer, married Helen Rose Lula (1915-1995) of Turtle Creek, PA. Their daughter, Lynn (Farr) Wohleber, resides in Pittsburgh, PA, and their son, Donald R., resides in Scottsdale, AZ. Donald E.'s company was Methods Engineering Council, Inc. Served companies worldwide. He was President until his death on Jun 10, 1966. Donald R Farr married Mary Jane Hill of Tempe, AZ; he is foundingDirector of National Consulting Services. Recently Donald R. contacted Edith Mann through a mutual relative which caused Edith to research the Farrs. She had worked for Elmer and Georgia when they resided near Waucoma. These are descendants of Samuel Farr, Sr. and Hannah Whitney born in Stowe, MA, in 1684 and died in 1754. Elmer Farr was a successful Fayette County Farmer noted for his fine stock of Holstein cattle and Duroc swine. His wife, Georgia, raised Leg­horn and Barred Rock chickens (using her own incubator) not only for their use, but a supple­ment for their income. Georgia died in 1941, Elmer in 1947. The Jack Adams family presently owns and operates the former Farr farm.

From the research of Karen Farr:
Came to Lorain County Ohio from Vermont in 1817.
Source: 1807 History of Lorain County Ohio, Philadelphia: Williams Brothers 1879:
Pg. 245 Carlisle Settlement. paragraph 2: "A few months after Mr. Bacon made a commencement, a brother-in-law, Abel Farr, came on from Vermont and located on the north line and near the center east and west. His family that came with him was a wife and four children. Others who were married remained in Vermont; two came on afterwards and  settled near the father. None of them now live in the township, and the only descendants are the widow and  children of a son, Lowell, who was one of the children who came with the family."

Notes by Tim Farr:
In the first paragraph of the above citation it states that John Bacon of Windham Vermont was the first settler in Carlisle. He came with his children; Clarrissa, Hiram and Susan. Hiram married Louisa Halford. Abel's son, Lowell, married Phebe Loretta Holford. This would make Abel Farr and John Bacon In-laws not brother-in-laws.

I see different death dates from four different states for Abel and I don't see any proof for any of them belonging to this Abel Farr.

No proof can be found that this Abel had sons named Loren and Loreman so I have deleted them and a daughter named "Polly".

Mary "Polly" Ruth SMITH was born ¹ on 7 Mar 1773 in South Hadley, Hampshire, Massachusetts, United States. Mary married ^{2, 3} Abel FARR ⁴ on 1 Dec 1794 in Westmoreland, Cheshire, New Hampshire, United States.

Family history says he was a veteran of the War of 1812. I have not been able to find any records to verify this. Wilson had his Army rifle.
