| 1801 | Archie was the last Gaelic speaking member of his family. He was very interested in local and family history. Archibald Murray Macfarlane's obituary outlines his working life and touches briefly on his interests historical. 1 - Archibald Murray Macfarlane 11.10.1907 - 30.1.1986 At the end of the week there was the sudden death of Archie Macfarlane, Esher Crescent. He was 78. A native of Callander, Mr Macfarlane belonged to a family with a slaters and plasterers business, whose origins have been dated back to the 17th. century. For that time, it has been said, the business has been operated from Bridgend. After a schooling in Callander Public School, Archie Macfarlane became a tradesman in the business, but in the depression that followed the Wall Street Crash, gave up his slatering and plastering for an early career in the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders. He was wounded in France during World War 2 and retired from the army to take up employment with Glasgow Corporation Water Department at Loch Vennacher Sluices. His service with the Corporation lasted 33 years and, when he retired, he was superintendent of aqueducts and lived in Blanefield. The early years of his retirement were spent in Irvine, but a return to Callander soon followed. In Esher Crescent, he was able to continue a life time of study, not only of his own lifetime of Callander experience but also of details of general Callander history and folklore. His knowledge extended throughout the general Trossachs district. The death of Archie Macfarlane leaves Callander the poorer of a native with a wealth of knowledge of his birthplace. After a service in Callander Kirk on Monday of this week, the funeral was to Callander Cemetery. Archie Macfarlane is survived by a son and two daughters. His wife died in 1979. Archibald Murray Macfarlane was born on the 11th of October, 1907 at 96 Main Street, Callander, Perthshire, Scotland, the youngest of the nine children of Archibald Macfarlane and Isabella Rattray. 2 - Archie senior was a partner in the family business P. Macfarlane & Sons Slaterers & Plasterers which operated from a property called Loch Sloy at 14 Bridgend. The family also owned the adjoining property, number 16 Bridgend, known as Ivy Cottage. During Archie's childhood his parents bought another property Pollochro at 25 Bridgend. Archie's mother, Isabella, in addition to looking after her large family, took in guests to pay off the mortgage. Pollochro remained in the family until the 1960s when it was sold and renamed Kilmory. | Macfarlane, Archibald Murray (I14230)

In the 1900 Census, he is shown as a Shoemaker living at 5 Washington Street in South Braintree, MA (now Route 37 - just south of South Street in Braintree) with his son, Austin L.

It is possible that the mother is the Jane in question. She was born in England.)
