Hi Hopefully Patridee has the photo now and if Justin would like to let me have his address I can post his copy. I can also let you have the address of another Farrow researcher as I have his permission to do so.. It is strange though that I haven't been able to pin down any Farrows living at the house so looking forward to seeing the info from Patridee.

Hi Patridee and Justin, happy to send you copy of the photo, it was given to me by a Farrow relative who lives locally. Being new to Roots chat -how do we exchange addresses without telling the world? By the way- Whepstead now has a good village website which I understand has been used by one or two others to help with their research.
Try to call again next time you are in the village! Norfolk woman

hi Patridee
I was interested in your post as I live at dodds cottage whepstead [ex dodds farm] I think I may have missed you earlier in the year? I have been working on the history of the house and hadn't found records  of any farrows so would be interested in the information you found and the sales particulars -what was the date of this? I do have a photo of a group of Farrows outside the house in the 1920s and could send copy and details if required. These people were all from London but they thought that Farrows had previously lived in the house.
I think we have Had at least 3 different lots of Farrow relatives call round in the last few years!

I found him in the 1871 census as a farmer. Then the researcher in the records office,at
Bury loooked in one of her directories and found him at Dodds farm. She photo copied it
for me, and also the ordanance survey map of the area and a sale notice for the farmhouse, buildings, cottage, gardens and 17 acres of land. This belonged to a Mr. John Mead.
 So I am thinking this could be when John James went to live in sheffield. He is there in the 1881 census with a wife Phaney, born in Yorkshire, they have 3 children Alice 4, Annie 3, and Arthur 1 ( my grandfather). 

I haven't found where out where John and Rachel where at this point yet.
