Notities over John B. Farley Sr.

Twelve Generations of Farleys (Colonial Life, Chapter III): John was born in the year 1648, and probably was one of the younger sons of Thomas and Jane Farley. He possibly received his portion of the estate of his father and immediately launched upon the c areer of a planter. All succeeding records indicate that he followed this g entlemanly calling throughout his long life. The full name of hi s wife has never been disclosed, except that her given name was Mary. We are positive of his age, for in 1679, in a deposition e ntered of court record (Court of Charles City County, VA., 1679), he stated that he was then thirty-one years old. The writer does not claim to have proved the parentage of John F arley, Sr., namely that he was a son of Thomas and Jane Farley. The record is clear that he was the father of John Jr., who died and left a will in Chesterfield County, Virginia in 1754. While there were other Farleys in Virginia at that time who could hav e been his parents, it is probable however that John Farley, Sr. , our direct ancestor, who testified that he was thirty-one year s old in 1679 was one of the younger sons of Thomas Farley, the immigrant. If we accept Randolph W. Farley's records, that fifte en children of Thomas and Jane were living in Virginia, then Arc her could have been the father of John Farley, Sr. His plantations were originally within Charles City county, but upon the erection of Henrico, it appears that the boundary line divided his estate between the two counties. This is evidence by the fact that John Farley made a conveyance to his son John, fo r a considerable tract of land in Henrico, but recites the fact that he is reserving fr om the action of the conveyance, a certain portion of seventy-fi ve acres falling within the old county, Charles City, situated u pon the Blackwater. Nevertheless, he must have originally reside d on the portion that fell to Henrico, as in another grant, made to his daughter Mary, wife of Thomas Baugh, in 1708, he refers to the tract as "my old planta tion". A return of the rent rolls for Henrico county has been preserved for the year 1705, and we find both John senior and junior asse ssed with real estate in the county. John Sr., with 100 acres; a nd John Jr., with 551 acres. As late as 1732 John Farley, Sr., was conveying land, and in a d eed to his son James, he also mentions his wife Mary, and sons J oseph, John, Matthew and William. This has identified these as h is children in the most positive manner. We are also inclined to believe there were some others, but we are unable to verify the supposition. It may be that Thomas Farley married twice, or that he returned to England. No record of date of his death has been found. Appar ently there is no record of Thomas Farley or his family after 16 32, when Thomas was a member of the Virginia House of Burgesses, or when a record appears of his "wharf and tobacco," which refe rs to his "late residence." In 1655, John, Joseph, "Fra" and Joyce "Farly" appear and are me ntioned in Surrey County. These were immigrants, as well as Ann "Farly" in 1643, William Farley in 1652, Joice "Farlo" in 1648, and Alexander "Farlow" in 1654 -- so that John Farley, Sr., born 1648, could have been a son or even a grandson of Thomas Farley . In preparing an earlier chart, George Farley, another son of Tho mas (instead of John Sr.) was shown as our direct ancestor. This was an error as John Farley, Sr., in a Henrico County deed in 1 692, stated that he still owned seventy-five acres in Charles Ci ty County, Virginia, from the tract he had formerly granted to his son John, Jr. Extracted by Cheryl Harnack from "Twelve Generations of Farleys" : Early Virginia Records, from "The Gulf States Historical Magaz ine" Vol. 1, No. 6, Whole No. 6, Montgomery, Alabama, May 1903: Farle y Gleanings collected mostly from the records in the old court h ouse of Chesterfield County, Virginia and other reliable sources , contributed by Mrs. Wm. C. Stubbs, Audubon Park, New Orleans, LA.; John Farley of Henrico County, Virginia, "Planter" (born 16 48) made deposition in Henrico County (now Chesterfield) in 1679 , that he was 31 years. John Farley, the same (or his son) was, still, a "planter" in 16 84 in Bristol parish, Henrico County, and in a deed, 1692, menti oned that he "still owned 75 acres in Charles City County on the Black water, marked out from the land he had formerly granted t o his son John Farley, Jr." He also witnessed a deed, in 1692 from Peter Field and wife , Judith, to Henry Walthall. (This land had been granted to Mrs. Field in 1678 while the widow of Henry Randolpf.) He also appra ised the estate of John Stewart, Sr., deceased 1706, in Chesterf ield. John Farley, Sr., of Chesterfield County, 1708 (Bristol Parish) a deed of gift of "my old plantation to my daughter Mary, wife o f Thomas Baugh, and in 1732, a deed of gift of a plantation to s on James Farley in which he mentions his wife Mary, and also son s Joseph, John, Matthew and William. From Bristol parish, which lay in Chesterfield and Surrey Counti es (on both sides of the Appomatox) was taken Dale parish in Che sterfield County.
Olivia Farley Anderson Notes: More research needs to be done to see where Randolph W. Farley of Nashua, NH got the names of Samu el and Edward Farley. Their work has been done and they are seal ed to this family. I'm sure he had some records to back this inf ormation, but I do not have it at this time, February 12, 1994. This work was sent in by Jennis R. Farley in 1945.In 1732, John Farley Sr. of Chesterfield Co. Va. Made a deed of gift of a plan tation to son James Farley, in which he mentions his wife Mary, also son's Joseph; John; Matthew and William. Some how son Josep h Farley was not listed as his child, and his work is not done, as far as I can tell.

Will dated 1761Named in a deed in 1732 by his father. Joseph was left out of the book "Twelve Generations of Farley's" by Jesse Kelso Farley Jr., but he has the reference to Joseph in the deed right before he l isted the children. I guess it was an over-sight on his part.
