Phebe Farr Autobiography Reading
Manage episode 343194314 series 3000185
In this bonus episode we are lucky to have a guest reader, Joyce Newman from the Carlisle Township Bicentennial Committee, on the show to read from Phebe Farr's autobiography. Phebe was a child of 6 when her family settled in what became Carlisle Township in February of 1818. This reading is an account of her earlier years in the township which was published around 1894 for publication in the local newspaper. Phebe was the daughter of Henry and Eliza Halford of Ovid, New York and married Lowell Farr in 1832. They had 10 children, 9 of which survived childhood and most had children of their own. Phebe died on January 29, 1901 and is buried at South Murray Ridge Cemetery in Elyria, OH. (https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/66907558/phebe-loretta-farr).
