Dorcas is the youngest daughter of Col. Robert McFarland II. She and her husband Beverly Talley lived in a home that sat within the present day 3200 block of Springvale Road, not too far from her father's homestead and this cemetery. Dorcas recorded her parents and all of her siblings' dates of birth, and a few deaths in a family Bible. In this Bible, Dorcas's birth is recorded as July 18, 1818. Her death year is difficult to read but appears to be September 21, 1894.
This Bible is owned by a 3rd great granddaughter today (2022) and is believed to be the only complete recording of Col. Robert McFarland II's children.
