Hi Pam

Thank you so much for all the census info which I will try and 'get my head round' And sort out who was who.

Eliza, wife of Elijah Farr was Eliza Grove before she married, either the daughter or niece of my 2 x Great Grandmother Mary Ann Grove 1835-1873 (previous query on rootschat) Eliza and Elijah's son Albert Farr b 1878 Manningford Bruse married Beatrice Clements b 1881 Wilsford d 1837 Manningford.

Beatrice's sister Hannah Clements 1866-1894 married Eli/Elah Farr b 1864, son of Reuben Farr 1837-1876 and Eliza nee Dunford b 1839 Manningford. It looks as Elah Farr married again to either Harriett Rawlings or Emily Wilkins, have you come across either of them in 1901?

Another member of the Clements family (they came from Charlton st Peter) Ivu Clements b 1895 Forest Gate London, married William James Farr b 1888 from Manningford. He was son of Michael Farr b 1844.

I am sure the Manningford villages can not be that large, so wonder if they have a common link.

Many thanks

Thank you so much for all your hard work. I have also passed this link on to another lady who is interested in the Farr family, so it will probably be of use to her too.

Yes I am researching the FARR family. My name is Linda and I live in Australia. My parents emigrated here in 1965.My mothers grandmother was Annie Maria FARR daughter of Elijah FARR. My mother was raised by her grandmother and refers to her as mum. Would love to chat and catch up we may be related !
