Married Catherine Ann Kerwin on 23 Nov 1902. Catherine Ann Kerwin was born 17 Jun 1885 in Dover, Stratford, New Hampshire and died 18 Oct 1963 in Everett, Middlesex, Massachusetts. Children: 1. John Matthew MacNeil, born 29 Mar 1904 in Everett and died 26 Feb 1930. 2. James Joseph MacNeil, born 13 Sep 1905 in Stoneham, Mass 3. Catherine MacNeil, born about 1906 in Mass 4. Andrew Patrick MacNeil, born 28 Oct 1907 in Everett 5. Rose Geraldine MacNeil, born 26 Feb 1909 in Everett, died 3 Jan 2000 in Long Island, New York, married William Henry Wanser on 29 Nov 1931 6. Matthew MacNeil, born about Oct 1910 7. Mary C. MacNeil, born about 1913 8. Catherine MacNeil, born about 1915 9. Margaret Alice MacNeil, born 13 Jun 1919 in Chelsea, and died 19 Sep 1995 in Waltham, Mass. Married Joseph Harkins. 10. Matthew MacNeil, born 16 Jun 1920 11. Grace MacNeil, born 9 Aug 1921, died 22 Sep 1922. 12. Josephine MacNeil, born 9 Aug 1923 (?) After looking at my research, I do not think that Neil MacNeil was Matthew's father. Neil and his son Matthew appear in the 1881 and 1991 census for Canada when Matthew was in the 1880 U.S.census. Another researcher has Matthew's parents as Malcom McNeil and Mary McKinnon.
