The thesis that Thomas Fargher and Ann Vondy are the parents of John Fargher creates an interesting problem. It would suggest that John Fargher and his wife Margaret Fargher als Kneal were, at the least, second cousins. From our prior threads, you will recall that Margaret Fargher als Kneal is the daughter of William Kneal and Joney Kneal als Clucas (Clugas). Joney Kneal als Clucas' parents were William Clucas and Bahee Clucas als Vondy. Bahee Clucas als Vondy was the daughter of Thomas Vondy and Joney Vondy als Radcliffe. Judging by the dates, I would guess that the Ann Vondy who married Thomas Fargher was the daughter of one of the siblings of Bahee Clucas als Vondy. I think she may have been the daughter of a brother named Patrick Vondy. Her eldest brother Willliam Vondy had a daughter named Ann, but I think she married a man named John Clark. There was another brother named John, but I have yet to identify his family.

So, you theory works well, as long as it was O.K. to marry your second cousin. Any thoughts.
