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.
