c 1851
There
is a reference to him in his marriage certificate being the son of William
Farndale, a market gardener. However he may have been the the son of Robert Farndale
(FAR00307), a carpenter who moved to Putney.
1872
Possible
military service
There was a John Farndale, who was
discharged from the Grenadier Guards on 25 July 1872. He received £10
compensation. He served for 3 years and 323 days. (Chelsea Pensioners Discharge
Documents). I think this was most
likely to have been this John Farndale of Clerkenwell London.

married Emily Greenwood of full age, spinster of 36, John Street, Cambridge
