I no longer receive copies of my posts, so I do not know if they are
reaching others.
I am researching John Parry Farnum (abt. 1823-1889) and Esther Day who lived
in Guyana. Esther may have been born in Barbados.
Their children included John Parry Jr. (lived in Sinclair, Trinidad;
daughter: Leslie Farnum), Charlie (maybe Charles Edwin Dey), Arthur, Ada
(possibly married to Legge) and William on whom I have precious little
information. John Reginald Farnum may be a son or grandson. If you can
help with information on any of the above, please let me know.
I have extensive information on their sons, Richard Henry Ali Farnum and
Ernest Gilbert Parry Farnum and their descendants. One exception is
Richard¹s son, Sidney Farnum who married a Thornhill and migrated to
Jamaica. They had 3 daughters: Deya (married cyclist, Lance Haile), Daphne
(Dapho) and _______.
Richard may also have had a son named Evan, about whom I do not have
additional information.
I would appreciate hearing from anyone on the list, even to let me know that
this message has been posted.
There are other Farnums in Guyana that I would appreciate hearing
from/about:
Frank Farnum Sr. and Jr. who both worked at Guyana Pharmaceutical.
Frank Sr.¹s sister, Margaret Farnum who worked at Bookers - Guyana Stores,
formerly married to Leslie Gonsalves (Guyana Stores Electrical Dept.
The children of Eustace Farnum¹s brother, _____ Farnum who lived in
Albouystown (Compton, Angela, John and 6 others)
Hoping to hear from one or many of you,

I had the same problem of not receiving my own posts when sky moved over to
gmail some time ago
For some unknown reason gmail omits mails from yourself "to help save
clutter in your inbox" according to them, I think we should be the judge of
that
I found a way around the problem with gmail but don't know if it would work
with your emailer
One way around your problem might be to use a second e mail address and cc
your posts to that address, at least then you would see it
Best wishes Nivard Ovington, in Cornwall (UK)
Thanks for the suggestion. I am trying it out.
Sonia
Thank you for your great tidbits. With all the repetition of names in the
family, I still need to do some work to ascertain if this is our John Parry
Farnum, Jr. Still, in the first citation, there is that connection to
Dargan (I assume Patrick Dargan) whose daughter later married the son of
John Parry Farnum.
It would be wonderful to read the complete articles.
Our family tree project has come together with amazing speed. I have never
seen anything like it. In just a couple of months the tree has grown from
155 people to almost 400. We have over 40 family members, actively involved
in adding details and using the internet to track down long-lost relatives.
Then there are others like you who have helped us to access great resources.
Thank you from the Farnums worldwide,
Sonia
