(Son) Will1 November 1745Thomas was named in the will of his father, John Faris, dated 1 November 1745 in Mackan, County Cavan, and probated on 31 January 1754. To Thomas he left the lease of his lands of Dungummin and his lands of Killyfinla in the County of Cavan.2 
Residence*between 1770 and 1777Thomas Faris resided between 1770 and 1777 in Dublin.1 
(Witness to Agreement) Deed Memorial1 August 1770 On 1 August 1770 Walter Hinds of Corrakane, County Cavan, Ireland, and his son Thomas Hinds made a Memorial Deed, Conveyance and Will agreement with Alexander Slator of Whitehill, County Longford on behalf of his daughter, Anne Sleater. After reciting that a marriage was intended to occur between Thomas Hinds and Anne Sleater and affirming Walter Hinds' love and regard for his son Thomas, Walter officially made a "child's part and portion" transfer by deed, to Thomas, of the Lands of Gortnatrieve and Behy "with all their appurtenances (rights and privileges) in as full and ample a manner" as Walter Hinds "enjoyed and possessed". Next, Alexander Sleater, in consideration of the intended marriage, agreed to pay to Thomas Hinds £800 Sterling as a "marriage portion" and finally, Thomas Hinds agreed that in consideration of the marriage portion, as soon as the marriage had been solemnized, would settle on his new wife, Anne, by proper deed, a jointure of £60 yearly in case there should be no issue from the marriage or in case of issue, £50 yearly. Thomas also agreed that after his death, Anne's jointure would continue and that the Rights and Title of the Lands would descend to the male issue of the marriage and that after Anne's death, her jointure should also return to the male issue of the marriage. In his agreement, Thomas reserved the right "at any time he should think proper" to raise on the Lands the sum of £1000 as portions for younger children. It was further agreed that should there be no male issue of the marriage, then it should be lawful for Thomas Hinds to raise the sum of £2000 from the Lands for the female issue of the marriage and that then, and in that case, the Lands should revert and return to Thomas' father, Walter Hinds, and his heirs. It was further agreed that should Thomas survive Anne and decide to marry a second wife, that then it should be lawful for Thomas to raise on the Lands £40 as a Dower to be settled on the woman at the second marriage. Witnesses to the Articles of Agreement were the Reverend George Carson of Cragham and John Hinds of Corrakane, County of Cavan, and the Memorial was executed, signed and sealed by Thomas Hinds in the presence of John Hinds and Thomas Faris of the City of Dublin, Gentleman. John Hinds made an oath stating that he was a subscribing witness to the Articles of Agreement and to this Memorial, saying that he saw the Articles duly executed by the parties of Walter Hinds, Thomas Hinds and Alexander Sleater and that he also saw the Memorial executed by Thomas Hinds. The final document was received and filed by the Registry of Deeds at 12 o'clock noon on the 12th of Nov 1777, soon after the death of Walter Hinds of Corrakane.3,4

Birth*1880Annie Farmer was born in Newtown, County Roscommon, Ireland, probably about the middle of 1880. We have not yet found the registration of her birth, so our rationale for the timing is this: She was listed with her siblings on the 1901 Census, in what appears to be birth order, between her sister Minnie who was born in February of 1878 and sister Matilda who was born in June of 1881. In the 1912 obituary for her mother, the three married daughters were listed first, and the unmarried Annie was listed between unmarried Minnie and Theresa, who was called Cissie.1,2 
(Daughter) Census Ireland 19011901Annie appeared on the 1901 census in the household of her parents in House# 7, Newtown, County Roscommon, Ireland. She was probably about 21 years of age, although she was recorded as 19 on the census, and her occupation was recorded as "farmer's daughter."1
