Wife of James Kendrick, who died in Elk Garden Russell County, Virginia, August
2nd 1877, aged about seventy-seven years......She had lived a member of the
Methodist Church South fifty-five years.....James Kendrick's father must have
been Captain Kendrick in the Revolutionary days of Washington County, when it
included all of southwest Virginia. His wife's mother was a Price, a daughter
of Colonel James McFarlane and his father was William, who was in the great
Indian battle at Point Pleasant in 1774. He was wounded in this battle having
one of his eyes knocked out by an Indian arrow. William McFarlane was a Captain
during the Revolution. He was an Indian fighter, a Captain of his company in
case of Indian raids. His son, James, also was a Colonel in the War of 1812. He
had a son, Alexander, who was the father of John McFarlane who was the father
of the present McFarlane generation. SOURCE: INTERNET:
CHAPTER VI
The John McFarlane Family: His father was Alexander and his father was Col
James and his father was William, who was in the Indian battle at Point
Pleasant, Ohio as has been stated. Children of John were William, Albert, John
Carl and George. His wife was Lou Hurt. One daughter Lizzie, died young. Col.
James was the father of Dr. McFarlane and Clarissa McFarlane. Their mother was
said to be a Price. Clarissa was the wife of James Kendrick.
...George Hopkins lived in Rosedale most of his life. He lived to be
seventy-one years old and was buried west of Oaks Garage. Just a short distance
from where he is buried is the old McFarlane Cemetary, where Col James, his
wife, Father William and son, Dr. McFarlane are buried. Williams's grave has no
marker, just where it might be is lost forever to his posterity.
