• Notes

  In 1855 James McFarland give Elijah Sebastian and Sarah a deed for 44 acres from the grant to R. Smith that James had purchased. He also gave 106 acres from his own James McFarland grant. Both these are taxed by Elijah in 1857. When Jane McFarland died in 1872, and inventory was made of all the children's property that had been gifted. Sarah Sebastian was credited with 160 acres. I cannot find a record of his service in the Civil War, other than E. Sebastin signing up for the 14th Brigade in 1861. He dies during the war, but do not have any record of why.
