  • Notes 
    • Mary Helen Haines notes:

      1850 census indicates he moved from NC to TN in 1825. So, he should be in the 1820 Orange Co. NC census as a 28 yr. old with wife, but no children. They could be living in her parent's household. They are not in the household of William who move s to Wilson Co.

      There is no proof that this is the son of William who moves to Wilson Co. TN.

      There is also a problem with the 1830 census record for a William in Granville Co., while the birth records here indicate a move in the 1820s.

      1830 census in Granville Co. NC, South Regiment. Head of family is 30 to 39. one male under 5, one is 5 to 9, one is 15 to 19. 2 females under 5, one is 20 to 29. Lives near James Hoskis, King, Bullock, Wheeler. P. 43. On p. 44 is Abner Adcock an d Peyton Madison. P. 45 is Nancy McFarland, age 40 to 50, widow of James.

      1850 census: Carroll Co. TN, stamp 13, fam. 151. William McFarlin, 58, NC, Everline 28 NC, Jones W. 26, Tenn., Wiliam, 24, TN, Franklin 18 TN, Dicey H. 14 TN, Amanda 12 TN, Sylvester 4 TN, then Charles McLemore 24 and Sarah A. McLemore 21 TN. So , wife died, probably with childbirth of Sylvester. There is a conflict with the birth places of Amanda in the 1860 census which says she was born in NC.

      Fam. 148 is Erasmus and Celia. Fam. 157 is James Adcock and Celia, with Nancy Mcfarlen. I think this William is the brother to James who died abt. 1819, and therefore the uncle to Erasmus.

      1860 census: Gibson Co. Dist. 1, image 11, fam. 77: Wm McFarlan 63, NC, Manda 21, NC, Sm. Harris, 21, NC, laborer, Silvester, 14, TN.
