- Mary Helen Haines:
I do not know the how or why of this connection. This was in a tree for the Leven McFarland of Frederick Co. I think it was inferred that she was a child of Leven's because of the 1850 census with the James McFarland, age 5 living with Nancy and B enjamin Schultz.
There is a Benjamin Shooltz in the 1840 census, Image 57/138 on Ancestry. Shows one male 40 to 49, one female 30 to 39 and one male 10 to 14.
In the 1850 census, it is fam. 346, showing Benjamin Schultz born 1797 VA with Nancy born 1800 VA, and Henry Orndorff age 20 and James McFarland age 5.
However, other trees show Benjamin Schultz marrying a Nancy Parrill on Nov. 16, 1824 in Frederick Co. VA.
Also, in the book Frederick County, Virginia Marriages 1771-1825, compiled by Eliza Timberlake Davis in 1941, shows a Nancy McFarland m. to Asker M. Glover on July 23, 1815 (p. 36)
When following that lead, Nancy McFarland and Asker Glover show up as Nancy, born 1794, dies 1845 in Liberty, Highland Co. Ohio. Various trees show her as the daughter of John McFarland who married Mary Reed, John as son of William McFarland, wh o married Mary Graham, Loudon Co. VA
So, I do not think this Nancy should be in this tree.
