Re: Faragher
In Response To: Re: Faragher ()

Hello Brian,

In 1881 Thomas William Fargher was living with his family at Staward Mill Lezayre, a farm of 360 acres.

Thomas Fargher 40 Patrick
Eliza Fargher (Quayle) 42 Lezayre wife
Mary Ann Fargher 14 Lezayre D.
Thomas W. Fargher 12 Lezayre S.
Edward Fargher 8 Lezayre S.
Edith E. Fargher 3 Lezayre D.

Nearby at Staward Lezayre a 25 Acre farm:-

Jane Fargher (Preston) W 61 Arbory
John Philip Fargher 26 Lezayre son

In 1861 at Crossacks (Crossags) a 104 Acre farm east of Glen Auldin Maughold - near Ramsey-

Henry Preston 64 Arbory
Margaret Preston 64 Rushen wife
Jane Fargher 39 Arbory D.
Charles Fargher 40 Malew S in L
Thomas Fargher 20 Patrick G Son
John Fargher 7 Maughold G Son

Jane married Charles 1st June 1843 but Thomas appears to have been christened 1 Oct 1840 to Charles Fargher and Catherine Caine in Patrick - no sign of a marriage but a Mrs C Fargher died in Patrick 6 Feb 1841.
It appears the Farghers married well but what happened to the 360 acre farm, this was very large for the time.
