Stewart Farrar 1916-2000 Janet Farrar 1950- Stewart and Janet Farrar were both Londoner's who were initiated by Alex and Maxine Sanders in 1970. This came about when Stewart met Alex Sanders at the preview of the film 'Legend Of The Witches' based on a biography of Alex Sanders. Stewart Farrar was interested in Sanders and that evening Alex Sanders invited him to an initiation by Maxine Sanders and into their coven. It was in this coven that he also met his future wife to be, the then Janet Owen. Stewart and Janet first met when Stewart was asked to sample and narrate "A Witch Is Born". After receiving their 3rd degree from Alex and Maxine Sanders, they left the Sanders coven to start their own. Stewart was the author of "What Witches Do" and several detective/thriller novels. During World War 2 he was an anti-aircraft instructor, rank of Captain. He was one of the first British Officers to enter Auschwitz. Janet Farrar ( nee Owen ) became involved in the Craft after a friend started regularly visiting the Sanders. She was from a Christian background and went along to dissuade her friend from becoming involved, but was impressed by the structure of Wicca. They moved to the Republic of Ireland in 1976 where they lived and worked together as writers and operated a coven. Then in 1988 they returned to England for a while but in 1993 returned to Ireland. It was there that they were joined by Gavin Bone with whom they entered into a polyfidelitous relationship. The three of them co-authored two more books- The Healing Craft and The Pagan Path. The Farrar's books including The Witches Bible, have becaome some of the most influential in Witchcraft. Stewart Farrar passed from this world on 7th February 2000 after a brief illness Janet Farrar and Gavin Bone have continued to author books and have given a number of lectures on Wicca in the USA and Britain. Their current religious practice is described as Progressive Witchcraft and is also the name of their 2004 book. Janet & Gavin
