Biography

In the book "Twelve Generations of Farley's" mentions Reginald and his lady Barbara Hastings were the parents of several sons: Thomas, Roger, Humphrey, George, Michael. and Fabyan. (No trace found of this reference.^[1] The author specifically states that he cannot trace any further back than John Farley Senior born 1648.).

Fabyan who was born in 1570, sought the hand of his kinswoman, Jane Hungerford, in marriage and their sons had restored the ancient estates of the Farley's.

Fabyan Farley married Jane Hungerford. After his marriage he resided in Torothorpe County, York, England, where he had two sons. His first son, Thomas, was born in 1602. His second son, George, was born in 1615,

In the lives of these two sons of Fabyan Farley the American Farlevs have special interest. Thomas emigrated to Virginia, with his wife and one servant, Nicholas Shotter. They landed at Archer's Hook, a projection of land opposite Jamestown, Va., February 4 ,1624, on the ship Anne, the third ship after the Mayflower. They had a child, Anne, named in honor of the ship that brought them over. She was the first Farley born in America.

But the movements of Fabyan's other son, George, are of the greatest
