    Notes:

    Mary Helen Haines notes:
    Is there any record that shows his name as Robert Henry? Also, is there any record that shows him to be the son of Alexander? Couldn't he be the son of Robert, son of Duncan?

    Augusta Co. VA

    There are three documents for a Robert McFarland in Augusta County during the Revolutionary War period. They could be for this Robert McFarland, or they could be referring to the Robert McFarland, born abt. 1725, supposed son of Duncan. It makes more sense, because of age, for it to be this one.

    First: in 1775 Robert McFarland was paid for his service during the Dunmore Expedition time period. He was paid for 13 days as a scout, and also for 25 days hired...it seems to read something about horses. This is from p. 23 of Dunmore's Expedition: Payrolls and Public Service Claims 1775, pub. 1930, Library of Virginia. Also, on p. 105, Robert McFarland is paid for 112 days duty with Capt. John Lewis' company, on the same payroll as Alexander McFarland.

    A Robert McFarland also appears in Staunton court in October, 1776 where he is called as a witness against Alexander Miller, a Rev. who has refused to be disloyal to the King. Robert is also being paid for travel accompanying said Miller, and the distance he travels to Staunton indicates he is coming from Duncan's area near Warm Springs, not Reed Creek area. Found this is Vol. 1 Abstracts from the Records of Augusta County,
    Virginia, by Lyman Chalkley, on-line:

    "To Robt. McFarland, summoned by the officer; to assist, for going 50
    miles, at 4 pence per mile. To the witnesses for attending one day each, 25
    pounds of tobacco, or two shillings and one penny, viz: William Ewing,
    Silas Hart, Mary Erwin, James Montgomery, William Givens, Robert McFarland,
    Thomas Smith, and James Hill."

    William Givens is a neighbor to Duncan.

    1777: Nov. Muster Roll of Cap. Joseph Crockett Co. of the 7th Regiment by Col. Alex McClenachan (from Augusta Co.). Robert McFarlane is listed, says enlisted for 3 years. On furlough in Nov. 1777. In this company is Robert Sayers as 1st Lt. There is a Richard Scaggs. The rest of the names are not familiar.

    Washington Co. VA 1782 tax list:
    in Capt. John Kinkead's district:
    Robert McFarland, one tithe, 4 horses, 13 cattle. In this district are the same people who sign to create Russell Co.: Richard Price, Thomas Price, William Willoughby

    1784 tax list: Mr. Robert Campbell's district.
    Robert McFarlin, one tithe, 4 horses, 10 cattle

    1783: Surveyed 96 acres on both sides of Clinch River, assignee of Moses Dortan

    1785: Washington County
    Petition to Form Russell County, Virginia
    December, 1785
    The petition of sundrey inhabitants of Clinch River, Moccasin Creek, Powells Valley, and others, citizens of Washington County humbly represent that your petitioners are situate from the line of Montgomery as it crosses near the source of Clinch River, down the same eighty miles; thence to the extreme settlements of Powells Valley forty more. ...
    Included in this list is Joseph McFarlan, with Robert McFarlan next to him. They are near Samuel Vanhook, James Shewmaker, William Price. Then further down the list is Alexander McFarland. Other lists that show everone's signature also has a Robert McFarland Jr. listed. Not sure who this Joseph McFarlan is. The Joseph McFarland of the Duncan line that is known, is the son of Robert Henry and was born in 1775, therefore too young to sign a petition, one would think. However, there may be children of Robert from Augusta Co. Warm Springs area that are not known or are mixed up with the other Robert line.

    Older notes:
    QUESTIONABLE LINK: Is this Robert Henry McFarlane the same one who married Ann
    R. Walkup?
    QUESTIONABLE LINK: *********** IT SEEMS FAIRLY REASONABLE THAT Robert Henry is
    a grandson of Duncan McFarland.
    QUESTIONABLE LINK: Robert C. McFarlane (1781) is said to be a Junior in
    some records, which would make his father also Robert mcFarlane (?), married to
    "Ann"--?---. (See also under son Robert C.) Researcher James C. McFarlen
    states that Robert C. was son of Robert HENRY McFarland.
    LINKS: There are several suggestive links of the daughters, Angie and Rebecca,
    as being the same as the girls who lived in Clark (now Taylor) County,
    Kentucky, and who married YOUNG brothers. See that family.

    SOURCE: James C. McFarlen (1998) in THE HERITAGE OF JACKSON CO., ALABAMA
    (1997-1998). Lists much of this early family including the name Robert Henry
    as father to all the listed children. Robert Henry had daughters Angie and
    Rebecca.

    FAMILY: This family has definitely linked Joseph, William Monroe, Christopher,
    and Robert C. as siblings. Other siblings: Angie, Rebecca and B.L. supplied
    by James C. McFarlen. It is also believed that there was a brother James, but
    the early birth date of 1767 is troubling.
