HUSBAND

Turquill McNeill
of the Argyll Colony

Notes: Turquill McNeill immigrated with the Argyll Colony in 1739-40. His lands were located on Buffaloe Creek, Carver's Creek and on the Cape Fear River in Cumberland Co., and on Wilkinson Creek in Bladen Co. (now Robeson). He appears to have been a relative of James McNeill of Rockfish Creek, aka Jimmie McNeill of McCaskills. There is a small sandstone block in Phillippi cemetery with the inscription "J (or T) McNeill APTH 1800" carved upon it, and it is within the graves of the family of Turquill's son, "Long Duncan" McNeill. Beside it is another small sandstone block, perhaps the grave of a wife.
