Title
1860 United States Federal Census – Farr Family
Description
This page of the 1860 U.S. Federal Census record refers specifically to Fairfield Township in Cumberland County, New Jersey. In this document, Ida Farr, only five years old, and her family are listed as one of the households of the township. Her other family members include her father, Eleazer (44), mother, Charity (45), sisters, Alice (19), Almira (15), and Sarah (8), along with brothers, Nathan (10) and Elmer (1). At the time this census was taken, Ida’s eldest brother, Oren, had been married and her older sister, Emily, had died at the age of eleven only a few years prior.
Eleazer Farr’s occupation is listed as “Physician & Clergyman,” and it appears that no other members of the family had a formal job. This document also specifies that, although the record pertains to New Jersey, all of the Farr children except for Elmer were born in New Hampshire.
