• Notes

  According to Daniel Cushing, in 1635 "John Farrow and his wife and child came from Old Hingham, and settled in New Hingham" [NEHGR 15:25]. Both Savage and Pope misread John Farrow's will, Savage seeing "granddaughter Mary, wife of his grandson John Garnett" [Savage 2:146], and Pope reading "grandchild John Garrett" [Pope 161]. John Farrow's bequest was to "Mary Garnett (the wife of John Garnett) my grandchild," making it clear that Mary and not John was Farrow's grandchild. She was Mary Stowell, daughter of Samuel and Mary (Farrow) Stowell, who married at Hingham on 25 February 1682/3 John Garnett, and gave John Farrow two great-grandchildren before he died [Hingham Hist 2:243; Stowell Gen 18]. BIBLIOGRAPHIC NOTE: In 1852 "A Member of the N.E. Historic-Genealogical Society" (probably Timothy Farrar) published a brief genealogy of the family of John Farrow [NEHGR 6:314-16].
