James Lee Farrar

His childhood census records are here.

James Lee Farrar was born on 01 Apr 1901 in Arkansas, USA as the fourth child of John Wesley Farrar and Anna Cordelia Smith. He had four siblings, namely: Anna Elizabeth, Johnnie Marvin, Sarah Lillian, and Thomas Elwood. He died on 17 Aug 1933 in Drew, Arkansas, USA. When he was 30, He married Ida Chambless on 03 Nov 1931 in Drew, Arkansas, USA.

James Lee Farrar was buried in Ashley, Arkansas, USA (Geddie-Rawls Cemetery). He lived in Wilmot, Drew, Arkansas. He lived in Marion, Bradley, Arkansas, USA in 1910. He lived in Clear Creek, Drew, Arkansas in 1920. He lived in Clear Creek, Drew, Arkansas in 1930.

James Lee Farrar and Ida Chambless had no children (I think).

He had been married for nearly two years when he died.  So I want to find his wife in the 1940 Census and see if they had a child before he died, or if she was pregnant.  As of now, I have no children for them.  I'd also like to find out how he died.  There should be something about it in the newspaper.

Marriage License


Action Items:
1. Find Ida Chambless in 1940 to make sure there were no children. (I found her death record and it still shows her name as Ida Farrar, so I'm guessing she never remarried).
2. Find newspaper at the time of his death to see if there is an article.
