Crookes Farrow (Sheffield)

[jogobo]

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 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.
