• Name: Mary Olive McFarlin

Notes:

Olive Mary McFarland was the second child of Anderson and Sarah McFarland to live to maturity. She was born in February, 1856 in Coitsville, Ohio and grew up on the family farm as had her sister, Lovina, just two years older than she. The sister s apparently led similar lives; both became local school teachers and both married in their mid-twenties.
Olive was not at the McFarland/McFarlin family home in 1880, and might be found in Youngstown, Ohio. By 1881 she had married Albert Ross of Youngstown, she twenty-five and he twenty-seven.
They had only one child who apparently died young, as no children are listed as living in the 1900 census. Olive and Albert stayed alone together for at least forty years, moving to Columbus in the early 1900's.
She probably died before the 1930 census

(Research):, and vital records should be checked.
