This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: McFarland, Haskins, Nettleton, Simons Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/FG0.2ACIB/1019 Message Board Post: I'm wondering the reason for the McFadden middle name addition on ancestry.com and else where to the McFarlands from Worcester Mass and later North Adams MA? There appears to be an Andrew McFarland who came to the US in 1818 and his wife was Agnes McFadden, but obviously these are not the same McFarlands who came to the US sometime between 1718 & 1750.
