ave Elizabeth FARROW married to John DAVENPORT on April 25, 1867 in
Clinton Township, Essex County, NJ, if that is a help to anyone. She is my
great grandmother so if it connects with anyone I'd be glad to hear from
you.

Carol,
as a bit of trivia, one of the most famous rifle shots in the late 1800s was
a man named Farrow who later developed the Farrow rifle. Mr. Farrow wrote
"How I became a crack shot" and won just about every competiton he entered,
including a famous match with both the Britts and Irish teams.
I have read his book and can tell you more if you like.
