General Notes: Husband - Simon McFarlane


He was born in Scotland. His parents remained there, and some of his brothers went to Australia. He came to America when twenty years of age and lived for one year in the state of Maine, living at Bangor, and from there made his way to Williamsport, Pennsylvania, where he engaged in cutting square timber and rafting logs. He married there and then came to Clearfield County and engaged in lumbering and in the mercantile business at Utahville and followed lumbering until his death. He died in an attempt to save a nephew from death from a boiler explosion, both being killed.
