I'm looking for information on this family.
Andrew McFarland was born around 1829 and died around 1893 in Ireland. He married Anastasia Sadler (not sure of the spelling) who was born, I believe, 23 September 1837 and Christened 10 October 1837 in Ahascragh, Galway, Ireland. She died around 1891 in Ireland.
Their 10 children, all born in Ireland, were:
1. ANDREW JOHN, b. 7 Aug. 1863 and d. 19 May 1864 in Ireland.
2. MATILDA JEAN, b. 21 Oct. 1864 (or 31 Oct. 1865). She emigrated to America in 1894 and married Thomas Farley in St. Patrick's Church in New York City on 25 Sep 1894. They moved to Fountain City, Wisconsin. They had three children: Thomas G., Frederick H., and Lillian M. THOMAS FARLEY was b. Apr 1866 in the Irish free state where he worked as a horse trainer. He emigrated to America in 1893. He worked as a "section foreman" for the railroad near his home in Fountain City, Wisconsin. The 1900 census listes Matilda, her three children, and her three brothers (Thomas, Frederick, and Robert) living together in Fountain city, Wisconsin. They were living in Buffalo County, Wisconsin during the 1910, 1920 and 1930 censuses.
3. CHARLOTTE, b. 10 May 1867. She emigrated to America and married Robert Graham. It's been said she returned to Ireland and we don't know if Robert returned with her or if they had any children.
4. CAROLINE, b. 28 Oct 1868. She married Mr. Reed and had a son named Jack. Jack died before 2006 but his children are still living. Not sure in Caroline stayed in Ireland or emigrated to America.
5. ANDREW JOHN, b. 4 Dec 1869 and d. 1 Apr 1875 in Ireland.
6. THOMAS ALEXANDER, b. 29 Dec 1872 in Bally Gawley, Tyrone Co. He emmigrated to America in 1894 and married Sara Frances Burdick on 30 Nov 1905 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He d. 23 Jun 1956 in Great Falls, Cascade, Montana. Thomas was naturalized 29 Nov. 1919. He and Sara had four children: Thomas F. b. 1906; Eugene R. b. 1908; Eileen M. b. 1911; and Alberta L. b. 1918.
7. JULIANNE, b. 28 Feb 1874. She emigrated to America in 1895 and married John Knowles. They lived in Jersey City, New Jersey. During the 1910 and 1920 censuses, they ran a rooming house. They had seven children: Mary b. abt. 1899; Helen b. abt. 1900; John (or Jack) b. abt. 1904; Kathleen b. abt. 1910; Veronica and William J. b. abt. 1912; and Robert b. 1919. JOHN KNOWLES was b. abt. 1865 and emigrated to America in 1889
8. SOPHIA, b. 20 May 1875 and d. 9 Sept 1875 in Ireland.
9. FREDERICK WILLIAM, b. 30 Mar 1879. He emigrated to America in 1891. He never married. He d. Mar 1918 and is buried in Great Falls, Cascade, Montana.
10. ROBERT JAMES, b. 24 Dec 1879 (possibly 1878). He emigrated to America in 1897. He worked in a lumber camp but was lost to his family.
Birth information for Anastasia Sadler was found on familysearch.org. It listed her father as Johne Sadler, a school master, and her mother as Jane.
Legend has it that Andrew's father died at age 98 and his mother died at 89, possibly in Northern Ireland. Also, that Anastasia's father died at age 68 and her mother died at age 99, possibly in Northern Ireland.
