QUESTIONABLE LINK: Joseph is not listed in will of father, but is listed in
book by T.S. McFarland. Since the record of death of Joseph is incorrect in T.
S. McFarlands' book, perhaps Robert never did have a son Joseph?
SOURCE: "Genealogy of the Joseph and William McFarland Branches of the
McFarland Family 1675 to 1910" by Thomas S. McFarland 1910 Cable, Ohio. Copy
at Greene County Room, Greene County Genealogical Society. "Joseph was
accidentally shot in the 'Whiskey insurrection' in Pennsylvania, July 17, 1794.
He was captain of a company called out to quell the disturbance."
CONFLICT-ERROR: About Joseph who "died in the Whiskey Rebellion". It was a
James McFarland who was killed, not Joseph. Further, the James who was killed
in the Whiskey Rebellion had immigrated from Scotland, not Ireland. SOURCE:
James A. McFarland, descent from Robert McFarland of Lancaster County, one who
documents his research.
CONFLICT: Since he died in 1794, and his fathers will was made in 1792, why
did his father not include him in it?
