Hello!
I was so excited when I found your web site this evening! I have been res
earching my grandmother's family. The information I have for you is as fo
llows:
Charles Henry Jackson Farley married Georgianna A. Henshaw
They had four children that I knew of:
(1) James E. Farley
(2) George R. Farley
(3) ELEN R. (or sometimes K.) Farley aka Ellen and ELLA
(4) William Farley
Ellen Farley married Benjamin Franklin Hopgood of Kentucky in 1897. Th
ey were married in Gallatin, Illinois. Together they had three childre
n. (1) son who died in infancy (2) Meota Hopgood (b. 1903 KY) and (
3) Ethel Lynn Hopgood (b. Dec. 19, 1905 KY) Ethel was my grandmother.
I did some research at the library in Carlsbad, California, were the who
le second floor is dedicated to genealogy. There I found evidence that t
he Georgianna Farley died in childbirth around July 11, 1873.
Ellen (most people called her Ella) and Ben moved fromKentucky around 19
13 and moved to El Centro, California. You can find them there in the 19
20 Imperial County Census. While living there their two daughters marri
ed to Aynes brothers. Meota married Cecil Harold Aynes and Ethel marri
ed Samuel Jay Aynes. Ellen and Ben moved to San Diego, California. Th
ey were living separately by 1930. Unfortunately, Ellen developed alzheim
er's disease and lived out the rest of her life in an old folks home in S
an Bernardino, California. A relative told me he thinks she died the
re in 1942. I am trying to find the exact date and place where she is bur
ied.
I do have some pictures of her. If you would be interested in having a co
py I will e-mail them to you. Do you have any pictures of the Farleys?
Sincerely,
Cathy Rising
