Since you made this post in 2002 have you discovered more info on this Perrin Farrar who deeded land 1791 in Elbert Co, GA.
Perrin is a Farrar family name as you know, it entered with the marriage of Thomas to Katherine Perrin. I have a number of Perrin Farrars, but none that fit with a male who was of an age to have grown children in 1791 in Elbert Co, Ga.
From that record I have pieced together a possible history of his descendants.
Brittain Farrar (Britton Farrow) was born before 1791, per that deed, he married unknown at this time and had issue a son Brittain Farrar Jr, said Britton was murdered in 1842 in Lauderdale County by James M. King, but not before married and had issue Brittain FArrar, Jr born 1800 and died 1870 in Clay Co, Alabama. He married Eliza Brooks and had issue (at least) William Mosley Farrar, born Sep 27, 1843/45 and Thomas L. Farrar born 1859/60
In 1880 Thomas L. Farrar was a student in Randolph Co, Alabama, in the same year a child name of Wm was born to
Josephine Lambert, who in 1883 married George F. Freeman, and that son was raised as Wm Barto Freeman. The DNA of his descendants is a 34/34 match (Sorenson Molecular Genetic Foundation lab) with the Farrar Y DNA modal.
