Clan McFarlane Guest Book

Hello,

Good website -- keep up the good work, and thank you!

Although my parents said several times that we were largely descended from Scots, the only direct connexion I've been able to establish is through my paternal grandmother.  Her maiden name was Miller (from Kansas USA at the time of her birth in the latter part of the 19th Century).  Supposedly, some of the Joneses (i.e., my paternal grandfather's lineage) descended from Scots, although the direct patrilinial sequence seems to have been Welsh.

Naturally, I'd be delighted to learn more.

Best regard to all,

Bob Jones, Waiotehue, New Zealand

Further to my previous email -

Neil Leslie's father was Robert Peter McFarlane and his family was:  Jim, John, Robert, Will, George, Dave, Alfred, Henry and Christine (Sis)

My father John and grandfather James were born in Carrick Furgus NI  Can anyone give me more information?

Don't know if you're aware, Clan McFarlane are the descendents of Malcolm Parlane (pronounced Farlane).  They started calling themselves Clan M'Parlane (pronounced Mah Farlane) and eventually became known as McParlane, McPharlane, and McFarlane, even MacFarlane and McFarland.  The immediate founder of the Clan was Gilchrest, second son of Aluin, Earl of Lenox (12th Century Scottland).  His great grandson was Parlane and his son was Malcolm M'Parlane.  I can trace my own family to Hugh McFarlane, one of the founders of Portage, Wisconsin, who came to America from Plumbridge, County Tyrone, Northern Ireland July 1835.

Hi!  My name is Pat Hickey-Dukes.  I live in Morristown, Tennessee.  Would love to share my ancestry with you.  I have been able to trace the McFarland (McFarlane) line back to Scotland John who was born in 1708 in Arroquah, Scotland in 1708.  I am aware of descendants of John and his wife Mary Montgomery (1719-1782) who are now in Texas, Missouri, and in East Tennessee.  The McFarlanes immigrated in 1746 to Virginia.  Would be interested in those in other places.  Would also like to be advised of family pictures, coat of arms, etc. that I can print from web sites.  Thanks!  Pat Hickey-Dukes.

Hi!  Great site you have here.  I have always wanted to delve into my family history, but it seems overwhelming.  my paternal grandparents were Thomas McFarlane and Anna McManus.  I'm told that they met and married in Edinburgh, Scotland, and came to the U.S. at some point.  Anna's brothers Rodney and Frank (Francis?) emigrated with them.  I'm told that one or more of their children may have been born in Scotland but most were born here:  Donald, Helen, Elizabeth (Betty), Katherine (Kitty), and Richard (my father).  My grandparents lived in Oakland CA.

My father, Richard Bruce McFarlane, married my mother, Marjorie Janke, and they had three daughters, myself, my sister Rebecca, and my sister Cynthia.  My parents were divorced in about 1955, and my father went on to marry two more times and had, all told, something like 13-17 children.  The only other one of my father's siblings to marry was Helen, who had three children:  Judith, Thomas and Robert.  If anyone has additional information, I'd love to hear from you.

Thanks!  Robin Welch nee McFarlane

Very Impressed.  Great job Jerry.

Hi  my name is Jodie Mc Farlane  I'm living in Tenerife but come from Nottingham England  I'm 21  My dad John Mc Farlane and his family about 12 of them moved from Glasgow Scotland to Nottingham in the 70s  It's nice to see there are so many Mc Farlane's in the world.                                     

Hi all McFarlane's!!!!!  Unfortunately I do not know anything about my ancestry ... my father was William Desmond McFarlane, his father was William and mother was Isobelle.  They lived in Perth, Western Australia.  My father had two sisters ... Margaret and Esme.  Unfortunately, my dad did not have any brothers and he bore 3 daughters only, with my being the eldest ... thus our McFarlane name has reached the end of the line.  If anyone can help me find out a bit more about my ancestry, I would love to hear from you.

Thanks, Karen Moir (McFarlane)

I just happened on this site.  I am originally from Morristown, TN.  My parents have (had) a book on the McFarlane clan.  They moved this summer and the book has not been found but I am still looking.  The book details all of the history of our line back to the 1700's in Scotland.

My grandparents on my father's side were Zouella Bowers and James Hickey.  When I find the book, I will be happy to copy and share with folks.

Thanks, Gayle

Hello,

We have just discovered your site, and very impressive it is.

My fiance' and I went to Edinburgh last year to search for 'his tartan' as he recently discovered his grandfather had Scottish roots and he desperately wanted to find out more about his history.  His grandfathers name was John Jacob Miller and we were told whilst we were in Edinburgh that Miller is part of the Macfarlane Clan.  Is this correct as we are getting married in May 2005 and are traveling up to Edinburgh in November for my fiance' to get measured up for a kilt made out of the Macfarlane tartan?
Keep up the good work with the site,
Yours in anticipation

Hi, I have just recently started to look for some information on my McFarlane heritage.  My great grandfather was Montigue McFarlane and was married to Julia Belle Kendric.  They lived in Council, VA.  If anyone can help me, please let me know.  Thanks.

I posted a message back in December of 2001 -- that I was looking for information on a Joseph Kilburg who married Emma Schmitt.  I have found him, and have tracked his Kilburg family in Wintrich back to Petrus who was born in Kesten, and then to Petrus' birth in 1706.  During the searching (outside of Mormon tapes which provided all the documentation) I found out that a group of Joseph's cousins (Susanna Kilburg Steffen, Margaret Kilburg Wultz, Nicholas, Michael Mathias and John) came to the US a few years after Joseph, and most went to Iowa.  They are children of Michael Kilburg, younger brother of Johann Anton Kilburg (normally called just Anton).  When I copied my family's records from microfilm, I copied their's also, but have been unable to contact any of their descendents.  My name is Joan Norek, and I am a patent attorney in Chaicago, which can be checked on the Internet.  I want to mail these documents -- Just tell me where you are.  I see Maureen in CA, but no contact info.  Please contact me.

Hello, to all fellow clansmen, (and women).  My name is Christopher Newton, and I'am the grandson of Jessup McFarlane.  My father was raised by his Uncle, Chris Newton, and took his name with his mother passed when he was 12. Names may be different, but the blood isn't.  LOCHSLOY!

My name is Louise Mcfarlane, 30 years of age.  I live in Melbourne Australia.  I am getting very excited about travelling to Scotland for the very first time.  Have always wanted to since I was little because of my heritage.  My great-grandfather was from Scotland somewhere!!!  My grandfather was Charles Zealandus McFarlane.  My father Philip Mcfarlane, if anyone could help with more information that would be great.   sexysneeze@optusnet.com.au   Terrific site, Good place to start.

Someone wrote they'd be interested in a clan reunion, I'm not sure if it's the same branch or whatever but the McFarlane clan meets every two years for a reunion.  This year it's being held in SD.   I'm really interested to learn more about my heritage, and ur page helped out.   My grandmother is a McFarlane and she is my only really close link to the clan.   I really think u should expand upon the family tree, but that's my only criticism.   =0) keep up the good work.

I am researching my grandparents:  Andrew McFarlane born Glasgow 1868 died 1936.  Catherine Black Wasson born Glasgow June 1st 1871.  Died 1936

They were married 31st December 1891.  They had 12 children.  My mother was the youngest.  Unfortunately my grandparents died before I was born so I have no memories of them.

Any information would be appreciated.

Hello,   My name is Ann Helme, I'm from Melbourne Australia.  What a great job you have done putting your web site together, a lot of thought went into it as well as a lot of time and effort.  I am trying to trace Francis Thomas Hoffman and Mary Andrews they married in 1902 in Salford Manchester UK.  I know Francis Thomas B:1879 father was Francis Hoffman B:1846 (furniture broker) and Francis Hoffman's father was Conrad Hoffman.   Does this ring a bell with anyone out there.  keep up the great job your doing.

my name is Tim McFarlane, and I just ofund this site by accident.. it looks good. i am not sure if i am related to anyone here, but it feels good knowing there are many of us out there.  i am from ontario, Canada.

I can tell that a lot of work has gone into your site.  However, to be honest, there really doesn't seem to be much information on the Matin line.  Please don't take this as a negative comment, b/c if any one knows how impossible "they" seem to be to find, it is me!!!  I have been searching for two years for "My Martin's"!- So,. it truly is not meant as a "negative comment, only one of disappointment."   All I know of my line is that my g.g. grandfather was Edward Martin, he was married to a Barbara Slitter- I believe that they both were born in Switzerland.  My g.grandfather was Edward Norman Martin b.1883 in Allegheny co., Pa.-  He was married to Antoinette Shedwick,born in 1883 in Stolberg, Germany.  I will come back to visit this site from time to time in the hope that someone may know these names, and will be able to give me some help in this search.  Good luck in all of your continued searching!  Melinda Martin Fletcher - If anyone knows anything abt. my Martin line, please email me:  msf@nb.net .  THANK YOU!!

Please note that the Canadian McFarlane's can not spell.   Interesting is a difficult one for us.

Hi.  I was seaching the internet for information on Orange County North Carolina and came across the Andrew's name.  I just happen to be the great great grand daughter of Marths Andrews and John Wesley Dodson of Orange County North Carolina.  I though that Andrews was a Clan Ross name.  That is what Charlie Ross and Fran Buaman told me when I joined.  My ancester has a historical marker at Dodson's cross roads in Hillsborough North Carolina.  I have them traced back to 1693 in North Carolina.  Did not get out of this country with them, does any one you know have any more information on my line.  If so, please email me at MSDODSON1@aol.com .  You have a great webpage.   God bless

Port Lincoln, South Australia - g'day all!

Hi, My name is Rhonda McFarlane and I was born in Sydney, Australia.   I don't know much about geneaology but have been browsing the web for anything interesting and was very glad to come across your site.  Cheers!

This is a very interesting site.  I hope to see many of you in Germany this summer.

Found your site after downloading a MARTIN genealogy, and Emailing its submitter.  This is wonderful.  The music is great.  Though the Martin's and Morris familles are my husbands decedents, I'm of the CRAIG name and bagpipes are in our blood.  Terrific site, I just bookmarked it.

This is a very nice site to visit.  Geneology study is one of my favorite hobbies and this site helps so much.  I am new to the internet, so sites such as this make me feel like a kid at Christmas.  Thanks for your efforts.

. . . excellent web page.   Although our Prestons don't connect (mine are from New England), I may be back to listen again to the music.

That is a great web page.  I will include it in the next newsletter.  Thanks for all your work. 

I have really enjoyed looking over the Monner relations shown on your website . . . I had no idea there are so many Monners around . . . Thanks again for all your work on this interesting website.

I got on your web page today and I have to say it is one of the finest genealogy sites I have seen . . .

I am SO IMPRESSED!! What a great web site!! I don't even want to think of how much time that must have taken you . . . I look forward to checking the site out further.  Congratulations on an OUTSTANDING creation!!!
