On a lark I googled William Farrar and Martha Batte and found this which claims that William Farrar IV, my 6th great grandfather, married 1st Martha Battehttp://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/b/u/c/Ardath-L-Buckaway/GENE2-0009.html
There is nothing to substantiate this claim. Meanhile over in the Brown Family Forum you have this claiming that Martha Batte, dtr of Thomas Batte Sr married 1stAbraham Jones, 2nd John Banister and 3rd Stephen Cocke.
I cannot vouch for that info either, however I have never ever seen anything that suggests that William Farrar IV married
Martha Batte. There is nothing in the Virginia Magazine of Biography and History that even suggests such a relationship.
Continuining the search I find this GEDCOM which claims that William Farrar, son of Thomas Farrar and Katherine Perrin married Martha Batte.http://www.famgen.net/jordan/fam02963.htm no mention of any children especially no mention of a dtr Brown Farrar.
I checked my own data base and I do have this William son of Thomas and Katherine marrying in 1709, but to an unknown wife. Very well could be Martha Batte. It is worth further inquiry.
I found this one also that makes the same connection, tentatively I will include this William son of Thomas and Katherine as spouse of Martha Batte.
