  • Notes 

    • Mary Helen Haines notes:

      It seems that Thomas Neel married Eleanor McFarland back in Augusta Co. before moving south to join her father William.

      I found a Thomas Neal living in Augusta County in 1784 on the tax list. He was not on the Montgomery Co. 1782 tax list. So, maybe the move happened later than thought before. However, he does appear in the 1790 tax list B for the Montgomery Co. area that becomes Wythe Co. in 1790.

      In the 1790 tax list for February 20th (Walkers and Wof Creeks)Wm. Kidd, Wm. McFarland, Thomas Neil...listed.

      Thomas Neel appears in the 1793 personal tax list, James Davies Commissioner of the Wythe Co. district north of Walker's Mt. On May 22 Thomas Neel was taxed with 3 adult men and 10 horses. Also on the same day Louesa Mcfarland was taxed with 2 horses. They appear to be living close to one another because they were recorded on the same day.

      Also living in this same district are the many Peary (Peery) family and the Spanglers and the Robinetts, both Michael and Daniel.
