Savage has George Farr dying in 1662 and Elizabeth dying in 1687.
So if true a second wife is impossible. Ann Whitmore d. 1660.

While the Kathryn Wetmore Stadel genealogy has Ann m. George
FARRAT in 1643, Savage has no surname FARRAT in any volume
or any reasonable variation on same.

He DOES have Ann Whitmore marrying George FARROW of Ipswich
but a slightly later date of marriage (1644) than Stadel
(who may have gotten her dates from the James C. Wetmore 1861
genealogy).

A query by "Emily" ()
at http://www.rootsweb.com/~mamiddle/dec96.htm#16
has Ann marrying a George FARRAR/FARROUGH in 1647
in Ipswich.

George FARRAR of Lancaster in Savage was too young
to have married Ann.

It may be a question of misspellings and grabbing
the wrong FARR(AT/OW).
