It is reported that they killed twelve families near Harker, and proceeded up the road, murdering all small parties with which they came in contact. Mr. J. H. Woodworth (familiarly known as "Muggins," by many of our citizens) was killed last Saturday evening at Big Timbers Station, near Cheyenne Wells.

     John Farrell was the son of William Farrell and Judy Croke.^3,2 John Farrell married Mary Kinney. John Farrell witnessed the note of Edward Patrick Farrell and Patrick Farrell; and their Irish ancestry is based on the fallowing: 1) Edward Patrick alway's said that he was born in the Parish of Balingarry, in County Tipperary, Ireland; 2) His wife, Eliza Laura was said to tease him about the fact that his mother was a Kenny (supposedly an "Orange" family name; 3) According to some family lore, when he first came to the States, he lived with a relative perhaps in Minnesota or Wisconsin. 4); In a reply query by Joane Pratt Striebich on the ballingarry.freeforum.org in 2012 she received the fallowing: "I have read you message and would like to let you know that my great grandfather was a brother of Edward Farrell. The family lived in Gortfree and there were nine children in the family. one name I am unsure of but the others were called: William, Elizabeth, John, Brigid, Mary, Patrick and my G Grandfather Michael. Their father's name was John Farrell and he married to Mary Kenny. John's father's name was William and his mother's name was Judy Croke. William's father's name was John Farrell(1751-1811) and his mother's name was Mary Egan(1761 - 1829). John's father's name was patrick and he was born in 1721 and died in 1782"; 6) A Patrick Farrell, of the correct age to have been a brother of Ed's father, immagrated to the States from Tipperary Ireland circa 1848. He married a "Kate" either in Ireland or the States circa 1848. That Patick Farrell settled in and raised a family in Rock County, Wisconsin; 7) A desicendant of that Patrick Farrell has a reasonably close DNA (shared 39cm across 2 DNA segmants) match to at least 2 decendants of Edward Patrick Farrell. 8) There appears to be no other family connection between the descendants of the Wisconsin Patrick Farrell and those of Edward Patrick Farrell. Ergo, Patrick and Edward are prabably bothe from the Farrell family that was living in the Ballingary Parish of Tippararry Ireland during the mid 19th century. Since the DNA match indicates that the relationship at least a 4th generation relationship, it seems that while there may be a generatiional Edward Patrick and Patrick were at least 1rst cousins.^3,2

     Margaret Gaines was the daughter of Daniel Gaines and Margaret Bernard ?^1,2 Margaret(Gaines?) married Francis Slaughter before 1679 in Sittingbourn Parish, Rappahannock County; That Margaret Gaines was the Margaret that married Francis Slaughter circa 1679 is supposition based on an article written by by George King and publishred in Some SOUTHERN COLONIAL FAMILIES, Volume 3 (by David A. Avant JR.)³ Margaret Gaines died after 1705 at Richmond County, Virginia; Richmond Co. Deed bk. 4, pp. 13-14.⁴ She and Francis Slaughter While the identity of Francis Slaughter's first wife remains in question, it is possible that she was Margaret Gaines, daughter of Daniel Gaines. While many report that Margaret Gaines was married to Symon Miller, George King proposed that she was married to Francis Slaughter. Some list his wife as Margaret Hudson but he did not marry Margaret Hudson until well the birth of his last child. The fact that he was married to a Margaret before his majority is clear and George provided the fallowing supposition: "The Will of Daniel Gaines reads as if Margaret had already received some property from her father and this would suggest that she must then have been married. On 2 Jan. 1677/8 Francis Slaughter and Daniel Gaines, 'elected of & by the said Francis Slaughter,' joined in making a deed of land Francis had inherited from his father (Rappahannock Co., Va., Book 1677-1682, p. 21a-22a). Francis was then under age and had to have someone join with him who would be responsible if he did not subsequently clear the title when he became of full age. On 2 Apr. 1679 Francis Slaughter of SIttingbourne Parish, Rappahannock Co., planter, and Margaret his wife confirmed the previous deed(Ibid.,pp. 70a-71), and this deed of confirmation was witnessed by Danll. Gaines, Ralph Rowzie and Bernard Gaines. Here we have Francis Slaughter very closely associated with Daniel Gaines and married to a Margaret by 1679." Documentation to prove other wise does not seem to exist.⁵
