- ANDREW MCFARLAND (1812 to after 1870)
(Research by Peter Folsom McFarlin - May 2012 - updated May 2019)
Williams states that most of Alexander's seven sons and two daughters , "settled in this vicinity" (*1 p 168). This Andrew's name and birthd ate was taken from the IGI, and from his father's estate.
In March, 1833, the inventory of Andrew's father's estate states, ".. . Alex, late of Poland..." and later, that, "...Goods set off to wido w and children; Sale held 16 Apr 1833... Alex of Coitsville, some of t he buyers were: Andrew, Margaret, Wi lliam, and Alexander McFarlane...p artial settlement, mentions cash paid to Alex. McF, jr and Andrew Mc F " (*2).
This Andrew was twenty-one at the time of his father Alexander's deat h in 1833, and was likely the buyer mentioned above. In the 1840 censu s he is living in Coitsville with his wife, two young daughters an d a son under five (Alexander).
In 1850, Andrew McFarland is living in Poland, the town adjacent and j ust to the south of Coitsville. Their children's names are; Margaret , Nancy, Alexander, Rebecca, Hannah John and Emeline. The two boys ar e named after their grandfather Alexa nder and great grandfather John o r their mother's father?
This same Andrew and wife Ann are then found in the 1860 census in nea rby Irwin, Pennsylvania, perhaps near to Ann's unknown family. Their s on Alexander is now married to Margaret Book and is living next door t o his parents Andrew and Ann.
By 1870, Andrew, Ann and five children had moved to Shenango, Mercer c o, Pennsylvania where he continued farming. Andrew lived next to his b rother Samuel McFarland there in Shenango in 1870.
I could not find further information about Andrew or Ann.
