    Notes:

    Mary Helen Haines notes:


    A William McFarland appears in Greene County Tennessee records as a witness to various deeds as documents with John McFarland.

    1793: July 29. William McFarland purchased a North Carolina land grant #1201 for 100 acres at a cost of 10 pounds for each 100 acres on the north side of the Nolachucky on waters of Bent Creek. Roll 16, Book 5, Image 240/328. (Jefferson Co. Deeds, p. 301. Bent Creek This is probably another son of Robert McFarland, b. 1730, who has been misidentified. He is married to Rebecca Kirkpatrick.

    1799: Robert McFarland (Jr.), attorney in fact for William McFarland sold his 100 acres in Jefferson Co. to Patrick Nenney for $1000. Vol. D, p. 309 (p. 88). This indicates that William has left the area, and is likely the William McFarland who settles in Greene Co. Ohio by 1802. DNA has proved he is a son of Robert Sr.

    The Kirkpatrick family has long been associated with these McFarlands and were neighbors and intermarried in PA, then moved to Rockbridge Co. VA and then to Greene Co. TN. This is probably where William met and married Rebecca, although there is no record.

    Much earlier there are these records that are recorded in Gary Morris's site: Some have associated this William with the line of Robert McFarland that lived in Rockbridge Co. VA.
