The information I have is that William Farr born Hamilton, Ontario, Canada on 7May1859, and died 17Mar1934, Buffalo, New York, USA is from his death certificate. His wife was Elizabeth Galloway born 1Sep1868 in Scotland, and died 19Oct1937 Buffalo, New York, USA..
Their childern were Sylvia (27Sep1895-1Jan1987) and Guy(25Jul1887-31May1961)
On William's death certificate it states his father's name as William also, however I have not been able to find a William, but I found a James born about 1831 in England who died 16May1889, married to a Mary Ann Stevens (Abt. 1838-death unknown). I do not know when the arrived Canada. They had 5 childern and the information matched on their son William matched the information I had on my William. So, I believe it is the correct family. Their childern where
William (see above)
Thomas (1862-????)
Emma (Abt1865-????)
Sylvia Sophia (10Oct1873-????)
Caroline Ann (18Jan1878-????)
Also, these names reoccur in my linage.
