    " Dr. Benjamin McFarland and his family moved from Campbell County, Kentucky in 1826, (to Indiana) and settled on Lick Creek, half a mile east of the Shelby Pike. He was the first settler in this county who practiced the healing art. He made himself very useful to the early settlers as a physician. He built the first sawmill on Lick Creek and soon after added a gristmill, so as to furnish his neighbors both bread and lumber. He had two sons , Samuel and William, both living in the neighborhood, enterprising and respectable citizens. He had two daughters, Jane E. (who married John McCollum) and Eliza (who married Thomas N. Thomas). Benjamin McFarland died at the house of his son Samuel McFarland in the year 1860, in the ninetieth year of his age, his wife having died some years previous. The McFarland family has a marked individuality. They have always been in the advance from a moral and educational standpoint. "
