  • Notes 
    • MATILDA (MCFARLAND) PRICE (1826 to ca 1891)
      (Research by Peter Folsom McFarlin - May 2012, revised Oct 2018)

      William (son of "John") McFarland, "...reared a large family. Eleven c hildren arrived at years of maturity. But one son is living, Anderson , at Coitsville. Four of his daughters are living, viz: Mrs Lydia Maha n, Liberty, Trumbull county; Miss J emima McFarlin, Niles; Mrs Matild a Price, Coitsville, and Mrs Lavina Harris, Youngstown..." (*1 p 168) . In the sketch for Elizabeth Loveland (*1 p 165), Williams wrote, ".. .Elizabeth became the mother of six sons and six daughters." All abo v e written in 1881-1882.
      Matilda Elizabeth McFarland was born in 1826 on her parents farm in Co itsville, Ohio. She was the eighth of the twelve children above, and w as enumerated in the 1830 and 1840 censuses as part of her father's ho usehold.
      She married William B Price of nearby Hubbard about 1847, and in the 1 850 Coitsville census they were living quite close to her parent's far m, with one daughter, aged one. When her father William McFarland, die d in 1853, Matilda, with husband W illiam and children, are reported t o have, " moved into the stone house", with her widowed mother, Bets y (Loveland) McFarland (*2 p 859). Their stay there was short, as the y were in their own, different, homestead by 1860. At that time, the y h ad two daughters living with them, Betsy C Price, age ten, and Mar y M Price, age two. Also in their household was her sister Lavina McFa rland, age twenty-five.
      By 1870, she and William were still at their farmstead with daughter s Ellen B (age twenty-one, at home), and Mary M (age twelve, at home a nd attending school). Then, again in 1880, Matilda and William Price a re in Coitsville, but now living alo ne. In this census, Matilda identi fies that her mother (Elizabeth Loveland) was born in Vermont, and tha t her father, (William McFarland), was born in Ireland. Both daughter s had married and moved to homes with their new husbands. Daughter El l en Price had married Thomas Creed in 1871, and was bringing up her fam ily on the farm right next door to her mother's farm. Daughter Mar y M Price had married Henry Creed in 1878, and perhaps lived in nearb y Youngstown.
      Matilda was still alive in 1882 (*1 p 168), but she died sometime befo re 1900, since her husband William Price, widower, appeared then witho ut her, living with their daughter Mary Creed and her husband Henry Cr eed. his obituary in the Youngstow n Vindicator of Aug 19 1901is quote d here; ''...His first wife, who in her maidenhood was known as Matild a McFarland, died some ten years ago..."
