Notes |
- Jacob McFarland wills his land to his only living son Francis M. McFarland: the farm and plantation of 160 acres, filed March 7, 1864, Vol. 1 of Will Records on pp. 47, 48.
Francis Marion sold this land to George Bradley in St. Francois County (Book K, pp. 47-48). That explains the Bradley burials in the same plot with Jacob and Mary McFarland.
Francis Marion must have moved to Texas for a while. He was in Grayson Co. in the 1880 census with 4 children, then is in the 1900 Arkansas census in Benton County, where he remains.
F.M., Mary Jane, Jessie, and Edwin McFarland are buried together in Block 11, Lot 35, in the Oak Hill Cemetery in Siloam Springs, Benton Co., Arkansas. O.B. Kiepe of St. Francois County recounts that McFarlands from Arkansas used to come up to visit the old house and cemetery years ago (2006).
