?Chris I agree with you it is probably as mistake by the transcriber.
I tried to get the digital copy but said unavailable so will try again in a day as that happened a few days go for another death certificate and then when I retried a few days later I could get it, if not will get the pdf for ?8. Our exchange rate is so bad.
Do you think that her children wouldn’t be registered in the deaths or maybe went their own way.
Was interesting to read about the Friends Burial ground. Shame there is no headstones left. Came across a short YouTube on it.
Agains thanks for your invaluable information

I am lucky enough to have many years of the Annual Monitor on my
bookshelves so I can check the original printed copy. It says Widow of
John Farrar. If FMP's transcript says Thomas, it must be a mistake by the
transcriber.
If you want to double check, there should be an original "burial note" in
the Brighouse MM records in Leeds University Library which would be the
source of the Annual Monitor entry. Easier to obtain, however, would be a
digital copy of her civil death registration (more detail than the index
entry I quoted), which you should be able to order for 3 pounds starting
at the index search page here (you may need to register on the site
first):

Hi Chris,
I found the record for Hannah’s death in the Quaker Monitor Annual, but
when you look on FMP script of the record it says widow of Thomas Farrar,
but in the Monitor it
says John Farrar ?
