Eleazer Farr, married at Boston, Mary Preston, daughter of Daniel Preston.

From the will referenced below in the comment section, in addition to his wife (unnamed), it appears ________ Johnson? and Aunt Bowne(?) were also named. The existence of son Gibson is confirmed in oddly dated Guardianship papers that states he was the son of Eleazer, late of Boston, deceased. [1]The "odd" part is that it's dated 7 Aug. 1686, a point in time that Gibson had probably reached the age of majority. He chose Lt. Ephraim Sale as his guardian.

Daughter Margaret was born 16 Nov. 1663 per the Boston record.[2] She probably did not survive early childhood given she appears not to be named in Eleazer's will.

The Wikitree profile of Christopher Gibson link refers to his will and reference to "Gibson Farr that lives with his grandfather Preston" and "to Gibson Farr."
