His father, John McFarlin, came to this section from New York state when a boy and settled in Sharon township, afterwards moving to Bath. The son Anthony had spent his entire life on the farm where he died. He always was a lover of home life and his farm today shows the marks of his industry and thought, in its fertility and beauty. Mr. McFarlin had always been a farmer and took great pride in his work. He was public spirited and willing to lend his aid to anything that he thought was for the public good. Mr. McFarlin had been failing for some time but made a brave fight for life until Sunday, July 24, when he became worse and passed away the next day, surrounded by his entire family. He married Frances Hurd Nov. 15, 1860, his wife preceding him to the grave four years ago. He leaves three children, one son and two daughters: John McFarlin and Corinne, wife of Jason Sumner, living in Akron, and the other daughter, May McFarlin living at home, where she had tenderly cared for her father. There are six grandchildren. The funeral services were held Wednesday at the home, conducted by Rev. Charles Searles of East Granger Disciple church. The remains were laid to rest by the side of his wife in the East Granger cemetery. Additional Comments: Granger Twp., Medina Co., OH Forwarded by r. sizelove, 12 March 2009.
