• Notes

  My great grandfather, Philip J. Howard, son of Philip & Margaret Minerva (McFarlan) Howard, was born one day after his father was killed due to being hit over the head with a barrel stave. My great grandfather was born Mar. 11, 1840 and his father was killed on Mar. 10, 1840. Margaret Minerva McFarlan Howard, daughter of James & Elizabeth McFarlan, married James Kirkham after Philip Howard's death. My great grandfather had a half-sister and three half-brothers from his mother's second marriage. [http://www.emporia.edu/~delmottp/McFarlanCemetery.html]
