Notes |
Mary Helen Haines notes: I wish to thank Jim Black for his photocopies, Mary Kegley for her books, Sharon Sinner and Jerry McFarland for their information about Tazewell county and Burkes Garden, and others for their e-mail exchanges that motivated this complilation.
This James B. McFarland is not descended from the line of Alexander and Elizabeth Tennent McFarland. He is not the son of Levin and Sarah Bonecutter McFarland of Frederick County, and did not live in Shenandoah County, VA. The James McFarland of Shenandoah County, born abt. 1807, is still present in Shenandoah County in 1850 and beyond, while this James B. McFarland is in Wythe and Tazewell Counties.
I came to the conclusion that James B. McFarland , must be the son of Rhoda McFarland and a male with the surname Burress (Burris) because of the results of DNA testing. Two males from the line of James B. from 2 of his eldest sons do not match the line of Levin McFarland's 3 descendants from two different sons that do match each other. However, the descendants of James B. McFarland do match the surname Burris or Burrows.This and the following documents that Rhoda was a daughter of William McFarland, and that Rhoda had a son named James made this seem the logical conclusion.
I recieved various e-mails over the years from people who are descended from the line of William McFarland of Wolf Creek that led me to information that William McFarland, who died in 1791 in Wythe Co. might have had a second wife named Louesa, and children by her named Rhoda, Martha, and there is one more girl named Rachael that shows up in records.
Rhoda shows up in records in Tazewell Co. when she was bound out in 1801, and then when she binds out 2 children, James and Nancy in 1810, and she is married to a man named Robnit by 1810. Following these hints, then going to the county records and census records I have been able to follow where James lived and his children, and follow Rhoda in her life.
Starting with William McFarland. William arrived in the Wolf Creek area about 1770. Back home in Augusta Co. (Jackson River area), his wife must have died and in 1775 his father-in-law went to court asking for the children to be bound to him. William had 300 acres surveyed on Wolf Creek and settled there, but the formal documents for this property were not finalized until after his death.
William's children began moving to Wolf Creek. The eldest girl Eleanor, married to Thomas Neel in Augusta, moved here in the 1770s, and probably lived on William's land. When William died in 1791, his son James was named the administrator of his estate.(March 8, 1791, in Annals of Southwest Virginia, p. 1361) This is in the Wythe Co. records also. However, there is a gap in their county court records from 1792-95, which may have some critical records where the estate goods were sold, or the heirs signed over property. It is not till 1801 that records in Tazewell Co. show that William's son Daniel in Cumberland Co. KY sign over his rights to brother James. In 1817, Isabella McFarland Crawford sells her part to brother James while she is living in Greene Co. TN.
Concerning Louesa:
1793: Louesa (Lucresa) McFarland is on the tax list for Wythe Co., owned 2 cattle.The census taker (John Davies Commissioner for area north of Walkers Mt) visited her on May 22, the same day he visited Thomas Neel(husband of Eleanor McFarland, daughter of Wm), who had 3 tithes and 10 cattle, and William Kidd. This indicates they were all immediate neighbors. This land becomes Tazewell Co. when the county was formed in 1800, and then Bland Co. when it was formed in 1861. It is near the present town of Grapefield today.
Louesa must have died in the late 1790s because daughter Rhoda was bound out. Source: Archives of the Pioneers of Tazewell Co. by Netti Shriner Yantis, p. 5, from Order Book 1, p. 20, on January 6, 1801 "Overseers of the Poor bind Rhoda McFarland infant of William McFarland to John Peery, Gent." Mary Kegley informed me that the Peerys were prominent people in Tazewell Co. This statement does not mean she was an infant the way we think of it, but that she was too young to be independent. Later census records for Rhoda indicate she was born abt. 1789, so she was abt. 11 years old.
Her probable sister Martha marries George Justice in 1802 in Tazewell Co.
Another entry in Order Book 1, p. 210, in 1806 has Rhoda MacFarlane and John Peery testifying in a Tazewell court proceeding. (p. 64 or Archives)
In about 1805, Rhoda gave birth to two children, which she binds out in 1810. Order Book 1, p. 357, March 27, 1810, Ordered that the overseers of the Poor bind James and Nancy McFarlin, children of Rhoda McFarlin, now Rhoda Robnit [usually Robinett] to William Smith (WR) as the law directs. (Archives, p. 104)
It is not clear from census records whether they were twins or born closely together. Both show up in later census records as being born abt. 1805.
William Smith is in the 1810 census record in Wythe Co., Image 36/46. In his household is one male under 5, and 2 females under 10. In 1820 William Smith is in Tazewell Co. and also has the appropriately aged children to be James and Nancy.
By 1830 James McFarland appears to be living in Wythe Co. near Walkers Creek area, where he appears in the census as James D. McFarland, p. 345. Image 66/109. He is a male 20-30, wife the same. There is one boy under 5 (Lorenzo Dow probably) and then 3 other children who would not be his.
In 1840, James Mcfarlane is still in Wythe Co., He is male 30-39, with wife the same. There are 2 males under 5 (Stephen, David), one 5 to 9 (Jacob), one 10-14 (Lorenzo Dow) and one 15 tthru 19 ?. One female under 5 (Elizabeth), one 5 thru 9 (Susannah, Jemima?), one 10 thru 14 (?), one 15 thru 19 (Jane who appears in the 1850 census, who might be a niece). Since the census is not alphabetical, we can see his neighbors: Ambrose Grayson, William Heninger (married to Barbara Lambert),John Lambert Jr, Samuel and Henry Lambert, Solomon Perkey (married to Peggy Lambert),Francis Gullion, Solomon Kimberling. From Mary Kegley's history of the Lambert family, we see that John Lambert Jr. obtained 159 acres on Walkers Creek, so this is where James McFarland was living in 1840 and 50 before he moved to Tazewell Co. by 1860.
In the county court records of June 8,1840 a record appears in Abstracts of Court Records of Wythe County, Virginia, 1790-1791, 1795-1810, Volume 1; Mary B Kegley,p. 168.
" Claims for killing wolves and foxes:....James B. McFarland (Ben R. Gibboney & Co.) 1 old wolf, $5.00."
During these years in Wythe County, the children were attending school. However, James and a few of his neighbors could not afford to pay the fees, so the Commissioner would ask the teachers to fill forms outlining the names of the children and parents who could not pay, so that the teacher could be compensated. Mary Kegley gathered this information into her book The Lost Children of Wythe County, Virginia,1790-1878.

Info from e-mail received in 2014 concerning the parents of James B. McFarland:
I am researching the family of James B. McFarland (1809-1876) who lived in Tazewell Co., VA. It appears that he was the son of a Rhoda McFarland and unknown Burriss because he is alternatively called James Burriss in some records, but mostly he is always called "James B. McFarland" in all Wythe and Tazewell Co., VA records. James' mother, Rhoda McFarland is mentioned in court records first as "infant of William McFarland" and then two of her children are bound out in 1810, James and Nancy McFarland, and she is referred to as "now Rhoda Robinett." As to her father, William McFarland, he appears to be the one that died in 1791 in Wythe Co., VA. There are deeds in Tazewell Co., VA where Daniel, James, and Isabella Crawford are named as William's heirs. I have only checked books and I have never checked the deeds themselves, but I suspect there are other deeds.
(1) "Overseers of the poor bind Rhoda McFarland, infant of William McFarland, to John Peery, Gentleman." 6 Jan 1801 Tazewell Co., VA. My interpretation of this is as follows: About this same time in Tazewell Co., VA, George Justice marries Martha McFarland. When William McFarland died in 1791, James McFarland became his administrator; however, no estate was ever administered. A Lucinda/Louesa/Lucy McFarland is on the tax lists until the late 1790's. When Rhoda "McFarling" Robinette died in Wise Co., Virginia in 1867, her parents were given as Wm. and Lucy McFarling. So that Lucinda McFarland on the tax lists would be the widow of William McFarland. I think William's first wife died around the time of that court record where Alexander Gibson got custody of his kids (1775). For some reason, William McFarland's land grants for the surveys he made in the early 1780's were not actually granted until 1800 and 1805. There should be deeds from all the heirs, but I need to go there because I can't find them in available books. From William McFarland's marriage to Lucinda, he had at least Martha and Rhoda - perhaps more.
(2) "Overseers of the poor bind James and Nancy McFarland, children of Rhoda McFarland, now Robnit, to William Smith (WR) as the law directs." 24 Apri 1810. Tazewell Co., Virginia. Nancy married Jacob Giffitts in 1825 and raised a large family. She had daughters named Rhoda and Louesa/Lucy. Nancy died in Tazewell Co., VA after 1880.
The source of this information was identified by Mary B. Kegley in an e-mail, Sept. 2014:
"From a published source, page 104, of Archives of the Pioneers of Tazewell Co. by Netti Shriner Yantis, she published Order book 1, and on page 357 records this: March 27, 1810, Ordered that the overseers of the Poor bind James and Nancy McFarlin, children of Rhoda McFarlin, now Rhoda Robnit [usually Robinett] to William Smith (WR) as the law directs.
On page 5 there was another interesting item (page 20 of the court order book), January 6, 1801, Ordered that overseers of the Poor bind Rhoda McFarland infant of William McFarland to John Peery, Gent. [Peerys were a very prominent family of Tazewell County]. There may be other references. "
In the 1840 census of Tazewell Co. William Smith, esq. age 70 to 79 is on same page as Jacob Stump and lots of Prewitts, one page over from James Burriss, age 30 to 40 and tons of Neels.
This would explain the YDNA match to Burress surname, but not any McFarlands. If this is true, then it means that this line is descended from Duncan McFarland (of later Bath Co.), through his son William who died in 1791 in Wythe Co. (Wolf Creek area), which is where all this group of people lived.
There is a James Burriss in Tazewell Co. born 1800-1810 in the 1830, 1840, 1850 and 1860 censuses. He is married to Mary Frances Neel. So this James Burriss is separate from the James McFarland below married to Christina (prob. Lambert). The census numbers below indicate the presence of the two boys Lorenzo Dow and Jacob Burris from the very beginning; they are not adopted children.
Some people have speculated that Lorenzo Dow and Jacob Burris were informally adopted by James B. McFarland, or were bound to James B. and that they were products of a Burris male. However, it is my belief that James B. McFarland and his sister Nancy, children of Rhoda McFarland, later Robinett, were the children of a Burris male.
The only way to know for sure is to find a male descendant of David McFarland to test their Y-DNA to see if he matches a Burress also, or matches the known descendants of William McFarland.

Burress of Bland and Tazewell County, VA
Posted by: Dave Bane (ID *****4854) Date: April 05, 2005 at 08:41:58
of 500
I am trying to establish the true parentage of Lorenzo Dow Burris and Jacob Burriss of Wythe County, VA.
I believe they were probably unofficially adopted by James B McFarland.
Although we find written records of these brothers with the surname of Burriss, they later took the surname of McFarland. It appears they lived with and were raised by James B McFarland and his wife, Christiana. Early records from from Wythe County, VA ("Lost Children of Wythe County") show Lorenzo and Jacob living with James and listing their surnames as McFarland.
Both Lorenzo and Jake's marriage documents from Wythe County show their surname as Burriss. Furthermore, records from Sharon Lutheon Church in Ceres show the brothers still using the surname of Burriss in 1852. In the 1870 and 1880 census records, the brothers are using the surname McFarland. Lorenzo is living in Bland
County in 1870 and in Tazewell County in 1880. Jake is living in Tazewell in both 1870 and 1880.
If any Burriss or McFarland searcher can help with this family, I would greatly appreciate it...Dave Bane

Hi Mary,
Do you have any information on Alex Neel, we have him married to Mary A. McFarland/McFarlane, d/o James B. McFarland & Christiana (Who I believe is also a Neel). They had several children together, but something happened as we find Mary living with her father in 1870 Tazewell County, VA. with her dau, Molly 3; Shelby 2; Napoleon (Which is Alen Napoleon Neel) 6/12 months. We also believe that Wheeling in 1880 census living with Mary's brother, Ballard and his wife Eliza Spracher McFarland is Alex and Mary McFarland Neel's son. They are found in the 1880 Census living with Eliza's father, Peter Spracher. Dane Bane a cousin of mine has found a marriage for Alex and Barbara McFarland Neel, I don't have that information as yet. If you have any information you can share, I would appreciate it. Alen N. was adopted by James & Emalilne Bane McFarland. Alen Napoleon Neel/McFarlane was my grandmother's first marriage in Leigh, Colfax County, Nebraska. I will share information with you.

Jacob McFarland (from information in The Lost Children of Wythe County by Mary Kegley) was adopted by James B. McFarland. His birth name was Burris. So he would have been an adopted brother of Alex Napolean Neel who also appears to have been adopted by James B. McFarland. Jacob McFarland was the father of James S. McFarland who married Sarah Elizabeth "Betty" (Hanshew). Both Alex Napolean Neel/McFarland and James S. and Sarah McFarland lived in Leigh, Colfax County, Nebraska.
