Their children ^{[6] [1]}:

Research Notes

• Mary and Lewis may have been married under common law prior to their official marriage in 1872. The 1870 census shows Lewis Farley (farm laborer, age 18) and Columbia Farley (age 16, without occupation) living in the household of Clay and Mary Farley ^[9].
