Welcome on board!
I don't know for certain, but I've always believed the original Farringdon Street station to be where the relatively new office block next to the Thameslink platforms is, and perhaps slightly closer to Kings Cross.
I think that Alan A Jackson's excellent book London's Metropolitan Railway will give the definitive answer although I'm not sure of the chances of getting hold of one.
