• Notes

  It looks like Stephen married a girl named Catherine, and they had a child in 1862 named Sarah Matilda. 1862 is given as the year of Stephen's death. In the 1870 census, Matilda McFarline is living with the Peter Spangler family, age 8, and on the same census page as Lorenzo Dow McFarline and his wife Matilda. Stephen Sanders McFarland is listed as a child of James B. and is found in the 1850 census with him. In 1860 he is not living with his father, however, a Stephen McFarlane, of the same correct age is living with the family of Daniel Robinette in Smythe Co. VA.
