  • Notes 
    • 1 - Charles McFarlane, eldest son settled at Rockland, Kingston Parish, Kings County: m. 19 May 1829 in Saint John, Eleanor Johnston:

      2 - The marriage date and place we have came from the family bible stating they ( Charles and Elinor) were married in St johns on 05/29/1829 by Rev George Burns. They had eleven children Elizabeth (1)Jane 04/07/1830-11/10/1830 (2) Elizabeth Catherine 10/19/1831-11/26/1837 (3) Mary Jane 12/27/1933- (4) John Johnston 02/16/1836-10/11/1927 (5) Elizabeth Eunice 03/27/1838 -? 11/24/1881 (6 James 05/28/1840- ? (7) Robert 12/17/1842-06/14/1846 (8) Matthew Law 02/06/1845- 04/16/1916 (9) JOSEPH ROBERT 09/04/1847-08/28/1915 (MY GREAT GRANDFATHER)
      (10) Margaret Eliza Isabella Emila 06/14/1849-09/12/1873 (11) Sarah Rebecca 12/08/1851-09/12/1852.

      3 - It appears that he emigrated in 1831 according to the census of 1851 and that he was married before he came because his wife Eleanor came with him it seems. If that is true, then he could not have married in New Brunswick in 1829...or one of the records is wrong. All the children were born in Canada starting with daughter Mary in 1833. [Both previous daughters died young so were not included in 1851 census-Ed.]
      In the 1861 census it states the family is Episcopalian. That means that back in Ireland, they could have been members of the Church of Ireland.
      there is a tree on Ancestry for your Charles, however it says he was born in Drumore, County Fermanagh, not Tyrone. Drumore (Dromore) parish crosses into both counties I believe.

      (Research):This e-mail from Scott Jude Macfarland, new CMW member #421, and DNA tester, kit #424770. I believe you have his genealogy form, but if not, I will forward it on also. It does look like his Charles might be the brother of Barb Duff's and Ken McFarlane's William.

      Andrew, you don't have Barb and Ken's line linked to the above. Their William is the same as the William above. I have this verified by census records. I found William and Frances in the 1861 census with Barb's Charles and Ken's Richard. Living in Johnston, Queens NB.

      Hopefully Scott's DNA results will confirm they are all part of this same lineage from James.
