I'd say "farm"

I'd also say - does it matter which?  !!
Edmonds/Edmunds - mainly Sussex
DeBoo - London
Green - Suffolk
Parker - Sussex
Kemp - Essex
Farrington - Essex
Boniface - West Sussex

Farm, singular, I think. Look at the ending of the word Waggoner - very drawn out, the same as on "farm"

Hi all.
its a unanimous farm then...............I just wondered if it was something like an abbreviation for Wheat Farm, Dairy Farm or something like that.
Thanks for all your help.
