William Far is from Wavendon. His wife's name is Ellen.  Elizabeth is his
elder daughter. She has a daughter named Elizabeth  who would be a gandaughter to William. Then he says he gives to 3 of the elder next to her, 5 shillings apiece.

Will #281

Tim,
I hope this is the John Farr you wanted first.  I can't see a parish, only the
county Bucks.   It's cut off.  John has sons named Henrye ffarr (no "e" on the
end), John and Thomas.  His daughters are Marye, Margret, Elizabeth and Alis. The date is 1615 at the top of the will.  John also gives to a Joane Sutton and
son Sutton and a Thomas Bu__tt__?.   It's in the dark and cut off area.  Thomas
Dewberye and Richard Barrett are his overseers.  His son Henry is married but he
doesn't give her name. Henry is the executor.

Transcribed by Pam Bott

On the original will I found on this John Fayrye it spells his name on the top how I just wrote it.  On the copied will it appears like this, “Robt fayrye Jhon fayrye”.  So the confusion about a Robert Fayrye will being written in 1556 comes from this.  The scribe made a mistake and crossed it out.  This is John Fayrye's will and not Robert's or Robert John Fayrye.  Hope that helps.

As I transcribe this I am doing so from the copied will because that is the one I had first copied.  But at the same time I am reading the original will and where that is different I will make indication of that, only where words are omitted or added and not usually variations of spelling.  So here we go -
