Hi James
Is it possible that James, George's father, could be brother to my John born circa 1790 baptised  in Harpenden in 1797 mother John and Ann? Will let you know if I come across any definite links.

I would be interested to find out.  Ive tried looking at the IGI indexes for the Farr family pre 41 census but have not got very far yet.
