1962 genealogical charts from Walter McNeill of Red Springs, NC, given to my brother, Jay Edgerton; Research by Ruth McArthur of Wilmington (deceased); Research of Steve Edgerton of Raleigh, NC.

HUSBAND

Neill2 McNeill

Neill2 McNeill is a mystery. He is very likely the Neill McNeill that Mary McNeill claims as her son in her 1790 will and who is an adult that year,and according to her will, is living in his own household adjacent her own property. His wife is supposedly named Flora, and her maiden name may have been Riddle. Many of their children's birth dates below came from the 1850 census, e.g., Archibald's is based on an Archibald McNeill (dwelling #26) living very close to Neill T. McNeill (dwelling #23) in the census. Archibald owned part of the original McNeill land with his brother Neill T. McNeill.
