MCFARSON
JOHN MCFARSON ( also sp. McPherson) as listed in 1793 Militia Census of NJ. Came to America from Scotland with son NATHAN MCPHERSON who was born in Scotland in 1782. It is known that NATHAN's brother ZACHARIAH MCPHERSON was born in NJ in 1790 and both brothers moved to Western PENNA. in 1809. Their mother is unknown at present. There were many other McPHERSON's in NJ at this time. Any connections to this JOHN MCFARSON (or MCPHERSON) contact me by e-mail. Some references state that the father of NATHAN and ZACHARIAH McPHERSON was named SAMUEL MCPHERSON. Both boys had sons named JOHN and NATHAN had one son named SAMUEL JOHN MCPHERSON. Any help would be appreciated
