Ann,
I've researched the Wisconsin/Minnesota branch of Faraghers from the Isle of Man. The four brothers--William Richard Faragher, John Edward Faragher, James Albert Faragher, and Henry Faragher (my great grandfather)--emigrated from there in the 1850's, first settling in Wisconsin. I would like to know more about other groups of Faraghers who emigrated to the U.S. in the 1800's. You mention the Ohio group, and I have found several references to Faraghers who settled in the northeast part of the country.
