  [S3] Mary Frances Reynolds Eggleston, http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/m/a/y/Lyndall-J-Mayes/WEBSITE-0001/UHP-0106.html. William Farrar (son of William Farrar and Cecily) was born Abt. 1627 in Jordan's Journey, Henrico Co. Virginia, and died February 01, 1677/78 in Charles City, Henrico Co. Virginia. He married Mary on Abt. 1656 in Virginia. Includes NotesNotes for William Farrar: William Farrar II was the eldest son of William Farrar and Cecily Bailey Jordan Farrar. He was probably born at Jordan's Journey where his parents resided for a few years after their 1625 marriage. William Farrar, born in 1627, was the second child of his parents and joined a thriving family then consisting of half-sisters Temperance Bailey 10, Mary Jordan 6, Margaret Jordan 4, and sister Cecily Farrar 2. William was the first boy and no doubt the long awaited little prince of the family. His father sailed back to England in the summer of 1631 to settle the estate of his father John Farrer the Elder. It is not known if Cecily accompanied her husband or if they brought the children on the trip with them. William Farrar II, his sister Cecily Farrar and mother Cecily are named in the deed of sale of the inherited properties for which Cecily and the children released their rights to the inheritence. Upon return to Virginia William's father patented and founded Farrar's Island on the former site of the Virginia colony's second settlement in Henrico County, a 2000 acre estate that would remain in the Farrar family for 100 years. William was only about nine or ten when his father died in 1636. The Farrar's Island patent was granted by King Charles I posthumously to his father June 11, 1637 and put in his name at that time. As the son of one of the colonies distinguished landed gentry William Farrar II was raised to take his place in Virginia society... Comments: William II, like his father, became rather prominent in Virginia society. He served as Justice of the Peace for Charles City Co. (1657) and for Henrico Co. (1677), and also was a commissioner for the Henrico Co. Court (1669). However his most notable contributions to the colony were made as a member of the Virginia House of Burgesses, where he served for 18 years (1659-1676). He also wore the title of Colonel as a company commander in the militia.
