  • Notes 
    • Mary Helen Haines notes:

      What if this Alexander was the son of Alexander McFarlane, son of William of Wolf Creek. That Alexander moved to Kentucky, Cumberland Co. in 1795 where he is recorded as being Maj. Alexander McFarlane on Indian Creek. then he moved to New Madrid MO, and died in 1812 in Arkansas. This Alexander could have then moved to Alabama to join relatives.

      I do not know positively who Alexander is the son of. He appears in Jackson Co. Ala in the 1840 census on p. 43. Near by (p. 41) is Joseph and William W. McFarland. It is curious he did not show up on the 1830 census anywhere that I can find. His daughter Amanda stated she was from Jackson Co. Alabama and her father was A. McFarland. In the 1840 census, Hardin Long's father Arthur Long was on p. 35 and Alexander McFarland was on p. 43.

      In 1850 census: Jackson Co. Ala, Dist. 19, p. 9,
