  • Notes 

    • Eric Stevenson's letter to Don Macfarlane dated 1 Dec 1987 reports a miniature New Testament and Psalms sent to "John Macfarlane with love from Grandmother, Edinburgh 1887". This was presumably dedicated to John Edwin not 'old John'.

      Anne Macfarlane died 23 April 1890, Edinburgh, aged 81 years.

      The death record shows that she was married to John Macfarlane, Retired Teacher
      and that her parents were:
      Father: John McNeale (deceased). Sea Captain.
      Mother: Anne McCaghan (?) Deceased.
      and that the Informant was Jane Macfarlane, daughter

      This all seems to fit but has not been verfified as our family as at 28 Feb 2009.
