     Rufus and Elizabeth have not been found in 1850, but from what information we

     have found from the Biography of his Nephew Edwin R Farrington taken from “1900

     Biographical History of Miami OH 2187” mentions that the Farrington’s were

     from Baldwinsville, near Syracuse, New York. Edwin was the son of Philip and

     Mary Hayes. The short paragraph on Rufus states :

     “Rufus Farrington, a brother of Philip Farrington, was a very prominent Mason,

      who died in Memphis, Tennessee, of cholera. He had a contract with the government

      to move the Indians west of the Mississippi river and to supply them with blankets

      and provisions for a number of years. He went to Washington, District of Columbia,

      to get his money from the government, but before his claim was allowed his death

      occurred.”
