He had four siblings, namely: Anna Elizabeth, Johnnie Marvin, Sarah Lillian, and James Lee. He died on 16 Apr 1988 in Monticello, Drew, Arkansas, USA. When he was 21, He married Ruby Beatrice Sanderlin,daughter of Robert Luther Sanderlin and Carrie Olivia Knowles, on 04 Sep 1927 in Drew, Arkansas, USA.

SSN issued: in Arkansas, USA He lived in Marion, Bradley, Arkansas, USA in 1910. He lived in Clear Creek, Drew, Arkansas, USA in 1920. He lived in Clear Creek, Drew, Arkansas, USA in 1930.  On the record below you can see that his wife's name and their first daughter's names have been switched, also notice that they are living next to his sister Anna Elizabeth Farrar Mays and her husband.  This is corrected in the 1940 census.  He lived in Clear Creek, Drew, Arkansas, USA on 01 Apr 1940.  Their name is indexed as "Foner".

Thomas Elwood (Pudney) Farrar and Ruby Beatrice Sanderlin had the following children:

3. Johnnie Lavon Farrar was born on 10 Jun 1932 in Drew, Arkansas, USA.  Died 05 Aug 2003 in    
    Alexandria, Rapides, Louisiana, USA.  (I just can't find anything else on him.)
4. Delbert E Farrar was born on 12 May 1934.  (I can't find anything else on him either.  I do have his name      
     listed in the obituary of his sister and still living, but nothing else.)
5. James Winston Farrar was born on 27 Feb 1944. (I have no records of him other than someone else's
    family tree.  So I will be making sure he's in this family before I do a page on him.  UPDATE: I found
    another James W Farrar who was born in 1946 in Arkansas.  I'm just not sure enough to put him in the
    tree, so I'm marking him as private until I get better information about him.)

Anna Elizabeth Farrar

John Wesley Farrar and Anna Cordelia Smith's Oldest Child.  Her childhood information can be found here.

Anna Elizabeth Farrar was born on 10 Jun 1895 in Arkansas, USA as the first child of John Wesley Farrar and Anna Cordelia Smith. She had four siblings, namely: Johnnie Marvin, Sarah Lillian, James Lee, and Thomas Elwood. She died in Nov 1976 in Monticello, Drew, Arkansas, USA. When she was 32, She married Frank P Mays on 15 Apr 1928 in Drew, Arkansas, USA.  (I will load the picture of this later, when I can get it to work!)

Anna Elizabeth Farrar lived in Wilmar, Drew, Arkansas, USA. She lived in Egypt, Ashley, Arkansas, USA in 1900. She lived in Marion, Bradley, Arkansas, USA in 1910. She lived in Clear Creek, Drew, Arkansas in 1920. Other: 13 Apr 1928 She lived in Clear Creek, Drew, Arkansas in 1930. She lived in Clear Creek, Drew, Arkansas, United States on 01 Apr 1940.  Her 1930 Census record is the only one that is different from the ones on her father's page, and it is listed below.  She and her husband moved back in with her father by 1940, and all those other census records can be found here.

Frank P Mays and Anna Elizabeth Farrar had no children. I don't know for sure that they didn't have any children, but on the last census I have for her (below), says she is 44 years old and they haven't had any children listed with them.  That doesn't mean that they didn't have any children, it just means that none of them lived to be older than 9 or 10.
