Notes - Mary Helen Haines notes:
Margaret McFarland, age 50 to 60, is in Cooper Co. MO in the 1840 census as head of household. She is on the image 43/90, next to John Cathey age 40 to 50, and J.W. Mcfarland, bet. 40 and 50. Not found after.
Possible father of Margaret is John McDowell, a neighbor of John McFarland Sr.
Clark Medford in his book, ( The Early History of Haywood County, ) Published in 1961, Waynesville, NC; writes several abstracts regarding "Flowery Garden" John, Daniel and also the John which I feel is my third great-grandfather Rev. John McDowell. On page 44, he states that "John McDowell did not confine himself to just one home. After coming here from Burke to the vicinity of Canton, he made improvements there (his Flowery Garden", etc.) where he at first spent much of his time. But meanwhile, he also bought tracts in the vicinity of present Lake Junaluska on Richland Creek, including his "Kaintucky Bottoms". Here he made "improvements', and lived at times----perhaps so he could be near Waynesville in his business of land speculation. His "Kaintucky Bottoms" he describes as "lying on both sides of Richland Creek."
Margaret in in Cooper Co. MO in the 1840 census as head of household. Not found after.
