Surnames: McFarland, McKey Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/FG0.2ACIB/60.504.1.1.1 Message Board Post: I am very much in the dark on the Beaver Co., PA McFarlands. I just found out that my Sarah was from there after finally gaining access to the 1850 census images for PA. Luck was with me in finding them as quick as I did. I have no idea who she might be connected to but since she was born in Ireland, the McFarlands listed that were born in the US certainly would not qualify as her parents but maybe uncles or cousins. There had to be some reason they went to Beaver and having relatives there certainly qualifies. The only other info I have is that of the other McFarlands in Tiverton township, Coshocton Co., OH and the surrounding townships. I would expect to find that John McFarland who lkived very close to John and Sarah McFarland McKey, who is buried in Tiverton Cemetery (1809-1881), is Sarah's younger brother. Census records indicate he and his wife were also born in Ireland so if they are siblings, their emigration had to occur after his birth. Any parent that would have been listed in the census records for Beaver would have to show a birth in Ireland or Scotland. I hope to find someone with access to the Salem Presbyterian Church records that served South Beaver and Ohio townships. It or perhaps one of the other churches in the vicinity may hold some clues. It would have to be a marriage record as their baptisms probably took place in Ireland. Do you know where in Ireland Samuel came from? It might help in locating them. I found a few possibles in Antrim, Ireland but without much else to go on, there is no way to tell for sure. One thing that does suggest a connection to the William McFarland I previously mentioned is that in the census records in Tiverton for John McFarland it says his oldest daughter was born in Ireland (Margaret 17 in 1860) but the next one was born in Canada (Mary 16 in 1860.) That would mean they came to Canada about 1844. The folowing children were born in Ohio and since Sarah's childen were all born in PA then perhaps if Sarah and John are siblings, then that would have been the reason they went to Ohio. Just guessing here but John's family's route through Canada does sound very much like William McFarland's family that shows up in the 1850 census in Beaver. If Sarah, John and William are siblings then it could be that the parents never came with them to America and perhaps they stayed in Canada or never left Ireland. If a record can be found for William's marriage, perhaps his parents are mentioned. The same goes for Sarah but perhaps the marriages took place in Canada and that is why we are having such a problem finding them. When you can't find any records you really start getting creative. Thanks for the reply and if I do found any more records on them in Beaver I will certainly post them here. Denny

(b. 1837) in the 1860 Census in Ohio Township, Beaver Co., PA. Children listed are James (age 8, William, age 6, Mary R. age 3, and Allen P, age 8 months. I can't find them again until I found William in 1900. He was married to Alwilda Eliz. Kattarar (b. 1853). William, Charles, and John all worked at the Townsend Wire Mill in Fallston. Alwilda died in 1902 from "exhaustion". My grandfather, Theodore (b. 1890) was one of their children. The other children were Sadie (Sarah) (b. 1880), Anna (b. 1886-1887, Samuel (b. 1890-91), Jenny (b. 1895-96) and Elsie (b. 1899-1900). After Alwilda died, William abandoned the children, the oldest one married and gone and the rest to fend for themselves. I cant find anything on William after the 1910 census, he had been in Fallston since 1900. AFter that, i dont know. The previously mentioned John (b. 1864) and Charles (b. 1856?) are related somehow t! o William, just not sure. I know Charles parents were Alfred and Isabella, from Pulaski Township. John McFarland was married to Minnie. Alot of my McFarlands are buried at Beaver Cemetary and Mausoleum, i found that on their site. I know Samuel , Williams father came from Ireland, Williams mother from Beaver, PA. I wonder if Sarah was Williams sister? If you any other info, I'd love to share it with you.

I just recently found my John McKey and wife Sarah McFarland in the 1840 and 1850 census in Ohio Twp, Beaver Co., PA. All their children were born there and they moved from there to Tiverton Twp., Coshocton Co., OH and appear there in the 1860 census although a few of the children died there after 1855. Both of them were born in Ireland but there are McKeys and McFarlands in both Ohio township and South Beaver township to the north. I aven't found any church or tax records for them yet to try and connect them. The 1800-1840 census are no help but do list both a William McFarland and a Robert McFarland. THere was a lso a later William McFarland that might be Sarah's brother but his oldest child was born in Canada suggesting either some of them came in via that route or he moved there and came back. I went to the library today looking for info on Beaver and the McFarlands and McKeys and did run across some birographies,one on Benjamin McFarland that says his parents, Robert McFarland (d. 1862 aged 84) and Catherine Pence (d. 1860 aged, 66) came to Beaver county from Westmoreland in 1824 and settled in Black Hawk in Chippewa township first before moving to South Beaver township. THey emigrated in 1812 and moved directly to Westmoreland where they were members of the Salem Presbyterian church. Many members of that church moved to Beaver and founded the New Salem church in South Beaver township. The census records indicate some McFarlands and McKeys in Westmoreland near the Salem church so it sounds like a plausible migration. I don't know whether your McFarlands are from that area or not. I did right down from the 1820 to 1850 census what McFarlands were found in both Beaver and Westmoreland if you are interested. If any of these people or events sound familiar let me know. I don't know whether my McKeys are related to the McKees that are also found there as they always spelled the name McKey in all records, even the census and tax records. By the way there are McFarlands in Coshocton where the McKeys settled that are supposed to be connected. I do have some information on them in case some of your ancestors children moved away and you don't know where to look.

I lost the email but wanted to tell them Thank you. I finally found the records, Yes, FamilySearch.com did have it after all. BUT I didn't find them under the name I was searching. In fustration I typed in one of the childrens' names that I knew still was "at home", and sure enough there they were. They were not listed as Alexander Miller McFarland, or Alex, or Miller or A. M. or McFarland. They were listed as A. M. Mc Farlan. I had tried all spellings I just didn't think of seperating the Mc from Farland or even dropping the D. And that is how the enumerator wrote it, with out the D. So take heed and try everything then try a child. LOL A very happy lady at, this completes my Census trail of Alexander Miller McFarland from age 10 to his death after 1900. Including 1890 inwhich I was very very lucky on that one as he was listed in the Special Veteran's Schedule. Susie McFarland Lemin

My great grandfather, Alexander Miller McFarland and his wife Susannah Caroline moved to the area of Mason City, Cerro Gordo, IA between 1870 and 1880. They had 5 children with them when they moved there, John W. (died in Montana at age 18) Nancy Katurah, Mary Louisa (Lavina), William Berry, and James Alexander. The following children were reported as being born in Cerro Gordo County: Charley M. 1875, Fred W. 1878, Frank E. 1882 (my grandfather) and Tommy O. 1886. I found the family in Ws in the 1870 Census records but have not been able to locate them in Iowa in the 1880 Census. Mary married Albert Willis Allen August 18, 18886 Mason City, Cerro Gordo County, IA before they family moved to Smith County, Texas. I found Alexander in the 1890 special census records for veterans of the Civil War living in Flint, Smith Co., TX ; Charley was the only child living with them at this time, Frank was living and working with his aunt Rebecca Bell nearby. Does anyone know where I can locate census records of this family in 1880? I did not find them in Cerro Gordo County. But according to Uncle Charley's descendents he was born there in 1875 so the family had to be around someplace in 1880, as 4 children were born in the space of 11 years.
