Title: Crookes Farrow (Sheffield)
Post by: jogobo on Friday 06 May 11 17:16 BST (UK)
My grandfather was James Crookes Farrow  I am hoping Freebee & Patridee are still looking in, I would love to get in touch with them.  I know my great grandparent's are John James Farrow & Phancy Crookes but not much else.

This link (http://www.familysearch.org/eng/search/Census/household_record.asp?HOUSEHOLD_CODE=1881BR_4836240&HOUSEHOLD_SUB=1&frompage=99) shows his parents on the 1881 census.

They married in the first quarter of 1876 at Wortley. GF

Hi Glen,  Thank's for that.  I think the Farrow side of the family are from Suffolk and the Crookes side are from Sheffield as far as I know.  I have Phancy Crookes's parent's as Joshua Crookes and Mary Bottomley but I haven't found a marriage for them yet.

Hi Mick,  That's very nice of you.  I've got 1851,61 & 71 for James & Rachel Farrow & 1881 for John James & Phancy Farrow.  I haven't had any luck finding Phancy's parent's Joshua Crookes & Mary Bottomley, if anyone know's when & where they married, any census's or death's for them would be greatly appreciated.  I have Joshua & Mary both born about 1816 and the first child for them born 1837 a daughter Ann.

It looks like Joshua Crookes died in 1864. There is a death registration in Q2 of that year, at Wortley (9c 134).

This link (http://www.familysearch.org/eng/search/Census/household_record.asp?HOUSEHOLD_CODE=1881BR_4832179&HOUSEHOLD_SUB=1&frompage=99) shows Mary Crookes visiting her daughter, Harriet, in 1881 (I think). GF

Hi I am so pleased I logged on today. It seems we are related . My grandfather was Arthur Farrow son of John James and Phancy Farrow. He married Agnes Barlow in 1901. They had 6 children. My mother was the youngest.


Hope to hear from you soon.

Regards Patridee
