- MCFARLIN, Mrs. Wm. - Mrs. Wm. McFarlin died at her home in the south part of Rogers last Thursday morning. Death was a result of a stroke of
paralysis. She had been quite feeble for some time and her age precluded much chance for recovery. Funeral services were held at the South Methodist church
Friday afternoon and were conducted by Rev. Sherman of Van Buren, a former pastor of the church here and a particular friend of Mrs. McFarlin. Mrs. McFarlin
was seventy- seven years old and was born in Bedford county, Kentucky. She united with the Methodist church when she was twenty years old. She was
married to Wm. McFarlin, who survives her, in 1881. They came to Rogers that same year and were therefore among the first residents fo the town. She was an
aunt and step-mother of H.G. McFarlin, Mrs. Allen Tribble, and Miss Lizzie McFarlin. The deceased was held in high esteem by all friends and neighbors and
her death closes a long career filled with many acts of Christian love and good fellowship. [Rogers Democrat 5/3/05]
