Isaac Farr.
Died in Lively, Ala., June 30th, 1884, Isaac Farr, in the 56th year of his age. Brother Farr was partly raised in Chambers County, Ala., and in 1851 he was united in holy wedlock to Miss Elizabeth Langley, who was then and yet is a consistent and devoted member of the Primitive Baptist Church at Mount Pisgah (Chambers County), Ala. In 1875 he related the dealings of the Lord with him to the church at Sardis, Harris County, Ga., and was received as a member and baptized by Elder H. M. Higginbothem. In 1878 he was received by letter into the fellowship of the church at Mount Pisgah (Chambers County), Ala., and there remained until he was called away by death.
The earthly remains of our dear Brother Farr was brought on the cars from Brownville, Ala., to Opelika; thence four miles out to Mount Olive Church, where by request of the bereaved family and friends, we preached to a large congregation by sympathizing relatives and friends, basing our remarks partly on John 14:1 ? "Let not your heart be troubled," and partly on Isaiah ? "The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart; and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken from the evil to come." After these services all that is mortal of Isaac Farr was laid in the silent tomb, there to await the summons of God, who created it, to rise the dead immortal and incorruptible.

Isaac married Elizabeth LANGLEY on 25 Nov 1852 in , Chambers, Alabama, USA. Elizabeth (daughter of James LANGLEY and Elizabeth BANDY) was born in 1830 in , , Georgia, USA; died after 1883. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

James is a Revolutionary and the young men are farmers. The 4s, 8s and 9s on this census are hard to distinguish, making the ages difficult. James is worth either $4500, $8500 or $9500.

James married Elizabeth BANDY on 11 Nov 1806 in , Baldwin, Georgia, USA. Elizabeth was born about 1786; died before 1841. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

No one knows what became of Elizabeth. Depending on which records you reference, she either died in Georgia, or she died just after they moved to Alabama.
