Three women and child in the boat Lorena, c. 1907

Three women and child in the boat Lorena. Child is probably William Maule McFarlan (1905–1982). Concrete train bridge (built 1905) in background.

William Dowling McFarlan Jr. (1836-1925), brother Robert M. McFarlan (1843–1914), and cousin Louis Cass McFarlan (1850-1913) and his wife Lorena Maule McFarlan (1873-1962) and young son William Maule McFarlan (1905–1982) were regular winter visitors to Stuart from their home in Pennsylvania, between 1895 through about 1910. Both William, a retired merchant, and Louis, a cloth merchant, purchased several properties in Stuart between 1904 and 1907. William first wintered in Rockledge, Florida, but found the fishing in Stuart to be superior.
