FARRINGTON family in Great Gransden

[peterfarrington]

I have John FARRINGTON born 1742 in Great Gransden as a direct ancestor. The Farrington family seemed to have drifted East over the years and were in Bourne, Cambs from about 1761.

I am trying to find out if the Farringtons spent any time in Great Gransden or were still moving from elsewhere.

I think that John's father was William Farrington married to Alice Peacock in 1738 in Great Gransden. If anyone is able to let me know if William was born in Great Gransden, and if there are any Farrington's earlier than him, then that would be a great help.

Many thanks

Peter Farrington

Thank you for being so very helpful.

What are the sources for these records? Are they online I mean?

Are these the earliest Farringtons in Great Gransden? If so then they must have still been moving every generatiion.

Thanks again for your kindness
