Does anyone have any details of William and Elizabeth Farrington, the parents of Thomas?  Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi Tony (my name's Anthony/Tony too for the record), thanks for the information on the Faerington link,  That isn't one of the ones I've been looking for.

I'm pretty sure the Thomas/Sarah one isn't the direction relation.  You say that Sarah was a widower, but having the information that my Thomas Sr died at the age of 81 in Sydney, sort of takes that one out of the running.  I'd pretty well come to this conclusion.

The other Farringtons in the same area is the one I'm looking to see if anyone has any information.  As you've probably seen, there are a few Thomas Farringtons born between 1788 and 1790.  I'm just trying to find which is which.

I realise I'm a little bit late to this party, but I'm searching for the details of Thomas William Ferrington, who I believe was Farrington previously.  He moved to Australia, but I have no idea when this occurred.  I know that in 1853 his son, Thomas William Ferrington Jr, had a young child die in 1853 in Sydney, so I know he was there by then.  Thomas Sr eventually died in 1869 in Woolloomooloo (Sydney) at the age of 81 according to the newspaper, so that would put his birth date circa 1788.

Does anyone know the birthdate of the Thomas Farrington of Buntingford that married Sarah in the Dodkin in the Royston marriage register 17 May 1819?  The death notice in the newspaper puts Thomas Jr as dying shortly after his father in 1871 at the age of 50 years, so his birth would be circa 1821.  In the death notice, in the Sydney Morning Herald, there is an "English papers please copy" note, so that indicates where he came from. 

Any information would be helpful.

I have a picture of Thomas Jr
