Notes:

Mary Helen Haines notes:
Many Ancestry trees show this George McFarland, son of George and Sally Jack McF. as the one who married Elizabeth Maddox, March 16, 1812 in Greene Co. TN. If so, then she must have died and he remarried Abigail Cathey in 1816 in Howard Co. MO. This George Jr. should not be confused with the George Jr. of Knox Co. KY.

Logic dictates that there are two different George McFarland families: the one who moved to Missouri, and the one that moved to Kentucky.

According to research done in the Cathey family, this George married Abigail Cathey, daugher of George Cathey and Margaret Chamberlain, some time after the move to Missouri. The marriage took place Dec. 19, 1816 in Howard Co. MO. It was recorded as George Mcfarlin and Abigal Carthey.

In 1828, a George McFarland purchased 40 acres #10932 at 5th Meridian, 49N, 28W, NW1/4SW1/4 12, Lafayette
In 1835, George McFarland purchased 40 acres #3285 at 5th Meridian, 49N, 28W NE1/4SW1/4 13, Lafayette

In 1830 census: what appears to be this George McFarland is in Lafayette Co. with no spouse, so she must have died before that. The 1830 census shows 1 male under 5, 1 male 5 to 9, 1 male 30 to 39 (George), 1 female 5 to 9, 1 female 10 to 14. (There is no female under 5, so where is Sarah A.?)

In 1840 census, George (age 40-50) is in Lafayette Co. p. 156, along with brother Samuel. There are two males: one 10-15 (Robert), one 15-20 (Samuel A.), one female 20-30. (Still no Sarah)

George purchases two 40 acre properties in Johnson Co. in 1843 and 1848.

540 HISTORY OF JOHNSON COUNTY. "George McFarland was born in Tennessee in 1793, and died in Chilhowee township, Johnson county, in 1862. Samuel McFarland, Sr., was a native of Tennessee, and came, with all his father's family, to Missouri territory in 1816, and settled in Cooper county, near Otterville; then in about four years thereafter removed to the Sni-a-bar creek, in Lafayette county. He came with his family to Centerview township in 1843, and settled about two miles east of the present depot at Centerview. Here he purchased about 400 acres, and resided thereon till the year 1850, when he removed to Texas. He died in the year 1861. George McFarland, the brother of Samuel, came to Centerview about the year 1843, and settled about two miles south of the present village of Centerview. He died there some time before the war. He was given to quaint, dry expressions, which were wont to produce great merriment among his friends."
p. 538 "It is related that Father McFarland, his sons and sons of his neighbors, every fall engaged in a great hunt for the purpose of getting a supply of meat for the coming winter. Being a strictly religious man, wherever in the forest the camp was pitched there he also erected an altar to the worship of Almighty God, and every morning before the chase, and every evening at the camp fire, there in nature's solemn temple was heard the reverent tones of Father McFarland ascending to high heaven from among the dark trees of the forest, while the bowed head of each comrade betokened the conscientious though strong spirit of those hardy men."

By 1850 census, George is living with his son Robert in Johnson Co. MO and does not show a spouse.

This George was living in the 1850 and 1860 censuses in Post Oak Twn. in Johnson Co. with what appears to be his son, Robert McFarland, born in 1837, married to an Elizabeth, born in 1836 in KY, with their children Arabella, born in 1849, then John P. 1852, Samuel B. 1856.

1860 census is fam. 1644, Johnson Co., Post Oak twn. p. 23.

In this same census, the households include fam. 1644, Robert with father George. fam. 1645, Milly Ann McFarland (widowed wife of Samuel A. McFarland), and fam. 1646 James G. Morrow, 48, merchant from Tennessee, whom I assume is a relation of Jane Morrow, wife of the Samuel McFarland who moved to Texas.

The George McFarland of Johnson County MO died April 23, 1863 and is buried at the Sluder Cemetery in Centerview Twnship Johnson County, MO. He is buried with a S.A. who died in 1859 age 35 years. This could be a son named Samuel who was present in the 1850 census, age 27, married to Milly from KY, but is absent in the 1860 census.

If, in fact, this George McFarland, is the son of George and Sally Jack McFarland, and he married Elizabeth Maddox on March 16, 1812 in Greene County TN, then it is more proof that the George who married Nancy Golden in Knox County TN is a different George.

The George McFarland of Johnson County TN died April 23, 1863 and is buried at the Sluder Cemetery in Centerview Twnship Johnson County, MO. He is buried with a S.A. who died in 1859 age 35 years. This could be a son named Samuel who was present in the 1850 census, age 27, married to Milly from KY, but is absent in the 1860 census.

This George was living in the 1850 and 1860 censuses in Post Oak Twn. in Johnson Co. with what appears to be his son, Robert McFarland, born in 1837, married to an Elizabeth, born in 1836 in KY, with their children Arabella, born in 1849

George married Abigail Cathey on 19 Dec 1816 in Howard County, Missouri. Abigail was born on 22 Jul 1800 in Pigeon Valley, Buncombe, North Carolina, USA; died before 1830 in Lafayette Co., Missouri. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Mary Helen Haines notes:
She is not with her family in the 1830 census or after, so she must have died before. Why do family trees say she died in Pettis Co. MO in 1860. The date that some trees give for her death in 1860 is actually the date for her sister Rebecca's death. Her father George Cathey lived there in the 1840 census.
