During the time they he lived at Gilly's Mill, George Farrar was active in the community, serving on the jury, acting as appraiser and processionar of land in 1736. In 1759-61 George Farrar sold his land. He and Judith moved to Mecklenburg County, Virginia (formerly Lunenburg County) to be near her brother, Field Jefferson. Judith's brother, had established a large estate on the north side of the Roanoke River near the Howards, where he operated a ferry for years (shown on Peter Jefferson's Map of Virginia). The will of George Farrar, written March 16, 1772, does not name his wife, but researchers have proven she was Judith Jefferson, daughter of Thomas Jefferson II, and aunt of President Thomas Jefferson. Judith is mentioned in her husband's will as follows: WILL OF GEORGE FARRAR OF MECKLENBURG CO & PARISH OF SAINT JAMES, VIRGINIA PROVED OCTOBER 12, 1772: "I give to my WIFE the right to the full use of the remaining part of my estate, both Negroes and movables, during her life. I desire that at the death of my loving WIFE my Negro fellow Dick may choose which he please for his master of those of my sons, THOMAS FARRAR, WILLIAM FARRAR or JOHN FARRAR. ****** Judith was likely a red head like her brother Peter Jefferson, but I have found no evidence saying so. Her red haired descendants, trace their red hair to the Jefferson line, of whom Judith's nephew, President Thomas Jefferson, was the most famous red haired member. The 1782 Census of Heads Of Families in Virginia lists Judith Farrar in Mecklenburg County. Judith Jefferson Farrar, at the age of 84, is listed as the Head of her household and the only white person. She had four slaves. Her son William Farrar and his family lived on the neighboring property, and sons Thomas and John also lived closeby in Mecklenburg County. Judith Jefferson, born 1698, lived long enough to see her nephew, Thomas Jefferson, write the Declaration of Independence and to see the newborn United States win the Revolutionary War gaining independence from England. But she died about 1786 before seeing her nephew elected third President of the United States.

I thought it too long to post to the Lacy list, as it is mostly the FARRAR line. I have no original info on these LACYs, & haven't much time to verify sources of info at present. Just interested in knowing if others have been re-checking the sources & verifying this info, & if it seems to be correct according to their research.
