      William A McFarland, along with his wife Mary and daughter Polly Ann, were received into the Pleasent Hill Church membership 6 Sept. 1885 at the first of two meetings of the church held at Taylors Grove Church that month. In Oct. of 1885 the church granted letters of dismission to twenty three members, including the McFarlands "to be constituted with members from other churches into a church at Taylors Grove Church". As it was the practice at that time to aid in the establishment of new churches, the Pleasent Hill Church assisted in the organization of the Taylors Grove Church. In 1887, upon petition from Wm. McFarland and J.J. Harmon of Taylors Grove for a pastor, the services of Rev. Wesley Denney were granted to the new congregation by Pleasent Hill. Brother McFarland was one of the leaders of the area Baptist Churches called by Pleasent Hill in 1892 to serve on a committee to settle a dispute between two of its members. He served as clerk of the committee. In 1897 he moved to Paenell in Wayne County where he lived for ten years to the day. Moved from Fenteress Co. Tn. between Apr. 23, and June 7, 1876 to Wayne Co.
