Buchlyvie, Kippen, Stirlingshire, Scotland; was christened on 12 May 1745 in Comrie, Perthshire, Scotland (son of Parlane McFarlane, of Ballawell and Elizabeth McFarlan); died about 1826 in Aged 84 yrs; was buried in Buchanan New Churchyard, Stirlingshire, Scotland. Other Events and Attributes:
- Name: John McFarlane
- Occupation: Weaver Arrochyluig
Notes:
History of Clan MacFarlane by Mrs C M Little shows John has children, John, Parlan, George, William & 3 daughters but doesn't name a wife.
1 - An IGI search of Stirlingshire births shows most likely mother to have been a Cathrine Mcfarlane. IGI shows she and John had sons John, Alexander, Peter, Parlan, Duncan, Walter, George & daughters Mary, Janet, Jean & Helen.
We have to assume transposition of Walter for William and early deaths of Alexander, Duncan, Peter and one of the daughters to end up with surviving children mentioned in Mrs Little's History.
This is made more interesting by IGI search of Buchanan parish marriages for John Mcfarlane and Cathrine Mcfarlane, to find there were three in the timeframe meaning these children could be spread amoung all three marriages.

There appear to have been two couples called John & Cathrine MacFarlane in the same parish who married within a year of each other. It will be impossible to say which children belong to which set of parents.
