    Notes:

    It appears that this James had a brother Alexander, 1779-1843, who is AlM02 in this tree and the progenitor of two other CMW members. Need to have a Big Y upgrade for the descendant of this kit to confirm the common ancestor to both lines. MHH

    1 - MCFARLANE: James McFarlane«b» «/b»b. in Ireland, m. - born in Ireland: came from County Tyrone, Ireland to NB in 1819: first settled in Kingston Parish, then at Millstream in Studholm Parish, Kings County: in an 1819 land petition he mentions that he has six children, four of whom are sons:
    (Sidona Wetmore's "Protect our heritage as portrayed in the history of Kingston Peninsula", pgs. 462-463 which says they came from Drumore Parish, County Fermanagh.

    2 - My wife was browsing last night when she found the New Brunswick Genealogy Site of Provincial Families. It states that James Mcfarland (Mcfarlane) born in Drumore Fermanagh Ireland moved to Tyrone in 1819 and then to Kingston Parish New Brunswick the same year with six children (4 sons and 2 daughters) . My wife found only five childrens names, Charles (our Charles), Jane,Robert, William, and Matthew. It appeared one of the other brothers had also married a "Johnston Girl"

    (Research): I put a message about my New Brunswick ancestors on facebook to a girl. I had my brothers DNA done and he is in Group #9 of the M'Farlane line.

    Andrew - the information on the James McFarland you gave me was for another one. The one married to Eliza is not mine.
    I belong to the other one stated of the Kingston Peninsula, very close to Charlotte Co.

    Hi Andrew,
    I have just heard back from Ken MacFarlane that his lineage (as well as Barb Duff's and all the people listed below who appear under BY7791) descend from James's brother Alexander. So we need to update their lineages on the tree with this correct information. Here it is now, https://www.clanmacfarlanegenealogy.info/genealogy/TNGWebsite/getperson.php?personID=I18975&tree=UL . And below is Ken's tree on Ancestry with corrections.

    Hi Again;
    Yes I have an Ancestry.com tree. Here is the link to Alexander. The Unknown McFarlane listed as his father, I did that so I can connect James and Alexander as brothers.

    https://www.ancestry.com/family-tree/person/tree/26805488/person/342076323440/facts

    Barb and I descend from Alexander's son William. I descend from William's first child Charles, and Barb descends from William's son Richard.

    This is my section of the spreadsheet.

    It appears that we (me and Barb) do not descend from James McFarland but we descend from his brother Alexander (b. Ireland - d. 30 Dec 1843, Studholm, NB, Canada) married to Catherine (married name unknown). Alexander immigrated to New Brunswick a few years after his brother and settled in the Kierstead Mountain area. James settled in the Kingston Peninsula area.
