  • Notes 
    • 1 - Malcom's parents were Alexander and Eliza McFarland. I don't know Eliza's maiden name. They are listed in the 1860 Census of Moore Co., Rollins Store Post Office, page 36, family #249. Alexander was aged 45, Eliza 29 and Malcolm was 1 year old. There is also a daughter, Sallie,
      aged 6 and a younger brother, Wm. B. J., aged one month. Eliza apparently died before the 1870 Census. In 1870 Alexander, aged 55, is listed in Sloan's Township of Moore Co., Jonesboro Post Office, page 46, family #264. The second listing for the family is Isabella C. McFarland, age 41. Isabella is listed as House Keeper but in the 1880 Census (Moore Co., Jonesboro Township, pg. 41, family #379) she is listed as Alexanders wife. Alexander had children by both Eliza and Isabella; Sally, Malcolm, Wm. Benjamin Jones, Daniel, Margaret, Mary, Flora and Betty. Wm. Benjamin Jones McFarland reportedly built the house in the 1880s that his brother Malcom A. and his bride Mary Elizabeth moved into in Harnett Co. I don't know the date of death for Alexander or his wives.
