Sons and Daughters of the American Revolution
As you may know, we Farrar’s have an ancestor who was a solder in the
American Revolution. As direct descendants we can join the patriotic
organizations: Sons or Daughters of the American Revolution.
Both organizations are civic minded and each chapter does many things
related to their respective communities and for the country in general.
You can contact them direct for more specific information about what
they do. I have included a link to their web page (both the National
and the California organizations) below.
I am presently working on compiling the documentation necessary to
join. An official ancestor trail must be documented to obtain
membership. Once I have accomplished this, the information will be made
available to any Family member wishing to join the organizations. At
that time you will need to obtain an application from DAR or SAR and
submit it with the paperwork I am compiling.
Our path back to our revolutionary ancestor is as follows (their
children are shown below each name):
Joseph Vernon Farrar, Sr. (6-10-1903 - 6-28-1983)
...Joseph V.
...William H.
...Robert L.
...Richard A.
...Geraldine A.
...Jean E.
...Thomas A.
...Barbara L.
...Marleen J.
...Carol S.
Lewis Tillman Farrar (2-28-1874 - 7-4-1935)
...Jewel F.
...Joseph V.
...Alta R.
...Virginia G.
Joseph H. Farrar
...Celestial.....Donie
...Effie.........Rufus
...William.......Samuel
...Laura.........Glen
...Ruth..........Lewis T.
...Bernice.......Sandusky
Jordan Farrar or brother John Howard Farrar (1795)
...Gus...........John
...Joseph H......Nancy
...Priscilla.....Mary
Abel Farrar, (1760 - 1849) Served in the Revolutionary War
...John H.
...James
...Jordan
...Jane
...Elizabeth
Our line also goes through Jordan Farrar’s brother John Howard Farrar.
Jordan Farrar’s son (Joseph H. Farrar) and John Howard Farrar’s
daughter (Parmelia Howard Farrar), first cousins married in 1845. They
are the parents of Lewis T. Farrar.
If anyone has any documentation such as copies of birth and death
certificates, census information, marriage license etc. which would
show each ancestor and their children’s names, it would be most
helpful. You can contact me via email by clicking on the envelope at
the bottom of the page if you have anything that may help in
documenting the family line.
