• Notes

  He moved to Queen Anne's Parish in Prince George Co., MD about Sep. of 1700 when he made land purchases there. His property that he gained over the years was on the border of Prince George's and Frederick Co., MD. There is a Samuel Farmer that was born in Maryland in 1660 that he could descend from. This line is well developed in the Ancestry Public Member Trees but without supporting evidence. It goes back through Lincolnshire and then Leicestershire, England. Some theorize that he is the son of Thomas and Ann Roome Farmer of Virginia who descends from the original Thomas Farmer (who came to the Jamestown area in 1616 from the Aylesbury region of England). However, I feel this is unlikely as YDNA studies have shown a great diversity in the ancestry of the Farmer families. I have also not seen any of the original Thomas's descendants migrate to Maryland in these branches. I and my mother have a cousin match with the brother to Janice Johnston on Chromosome 7, starting with 164003 for about 8 cM's with our only common surname being Farmer. According to her, 2 of the cM's in this segment come from a native American whom has yet to be determined.
