  • Notes 

    • Mary Helen Haines notes:

      James would appear to be the oldest son since he was given the job as executor of his father's will.

      CENSUS: 1830 VIRGINIA, Russell County, page 163 James M. McFarlane 1M 30-40, 1 F 0-5,
      1F 5-10, 1F 15-20, 1F 20-30, 11 Slaves. (page 161 is
      Alexander McFarlane, p. 162 is Augustus McFarlane, and on same page as James is Christopher McFarlane).

      CENSUS: 1840 VIRGINIA, Russell County James M. McFarlane 2M 10-15, 1M 40-50,
      2F 0-5, 1F 20-30, 1F 50-60.

      Living in the county at this same time is the household of Michael Lark. DNA testing has shown that descendants of James M. Lark, (born abt. 1829 in Russell County, VA, the bastard child of Polly Lark) matches the DNA of the descendants of James McFarlane, Sr., father of this James M. McFarlane. The young man James M. Lark, was ordered to be bound out in 1834 to George Finney in Russell County. In the 1850 census for George Finney, living in his household is James McFarlane, 21, a laborer born in Russell Co. It appears that he used that name in the census in 1850, but by 1860 and from then on, he uses Lark as a final name.

      Marriage to Martha Gose is verified by:
