Notes:

Mary Helen Haines notes:
Why he is called James "Ray" is not known. Have not run across this middle name yet in any found records.

The marriage record should be in Jefferson County, TN, but it is not in the county records. The only James McFarland in the Jefferson Co. record for this time period is to Eliz. Carmichael, Oct. 3, 1798.

There is a deed record in 1792 in Greene Co., Deed Book 2, p. 203, where a James McFarland purchases 114 acres from Joseph McFarland. This land is at the mouth of the Little Chucky River where it flows into the Nolichucky. I now think that this land was purchased not by this James McFarland, age 19 and unmarried, but instead by James McFarland, son of Robert McFarland born in 1730.

The fact that this James' father deeds him land in 1803 in NC, rather than he purchasing the land, makes me think this land in NC is his first land.

This particular James (son of John) is in the 1800 census for Buncombe Co.

1803: Buncombe County, North Carolina Deed Book 9, pp. 31, 34, 36. John Sr. is deeding land to James (253 acres on Jonathan Cr.), to Reuben (175 acres on Jonathan Cr.) William (196 acres on Jonathan Cr.) and David (116 acres Jonathan's Cr.)

James is mentioned various times in the Haywood Co. NC Minute Book of Court Pleas. On p. 12 to lay out a road from the store to Jonathan Creek, Reuben, James and David are assigned in 1809. In 1812, in Vol. 2 (1812-1815) he serves on a grand jury p. 11, and p. 47, p. 90 in Dec. 1814, he is ordered to appear as a grand juror, along with Jacob McFarland, and Alexander Caldwell.

Haywood Co. Deed Book B, pp. 364-365. James McFarland of Haywood Co. sells to Malcolm Henry part of his parcel of land on Sept. 18, 1809 for $225. It is described as being on both sides of Jonathan Creek and begins on the south fork on the west side of the Creek. This was not registered until 1826.

When he arrives in Cooper County, he patented 80 acres on Aug. 1, 1825 on Otter Creek in the southwestern part of the county.
He is in the Cooper Co. census of 1830 on p. 230 with three sons on the same page: John and Benjamin next to him, Willliam at the bottom of the page. He is on the same page as Carroll George, married to Sarah Hale McFarland, and Reuben A. Ewing, the Weirs and the Kavinaughs.

The listing of all the children and their birthdates comes from a letter written by Walter Leftwich (copied as Lettwich in 1963) in 1884 to his brother George W. McFarland. Walter was living in Mount View in Benton Co., MO when he wrote the letter, mentions his daughter Jane in Eureka Springs married to George H. Williams, plus two youngest daughters Margret R. and Eliza. He also gives the birthdates of his father and mother, but did not have their dates of death.

Notes:

Mary Helen Haines notes:

Their marriage should be in Tennessee, but there is no official record found so far.

F. McFarland, 78, born VA. is living in Benton Co. MO in 1850 census with a W.L. McFarland, 36, MO, and his wife E.J. 17, KY. Fam. 80, Fristoe, Benton Co. #554

She is in the Mortality Census of 1860 in Cass Co. MO. Says she died in March 1860 at 90 years old.

There is a will connected to her name in Isle of Wight, Virginia1798, where Anne Barlow Webb is dispensing with her inheritance from her father and names daughters Frances and Elizabeth Webb. However, she was married by that time, so wouldn't her married name appear?
