This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Neal, Holderness Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.illinois.counties.sangamon/2222.1.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: My great-grandmother was Calista Neal. My grandmother was her daughter, Anna Cantrall m. William Allen Holderness in 1872 and my mother was Anna and William's daughter, Ruby. My 2nd cousin is also a descendant. My mother married her 1st cousin, Neal Snyder whose mother was Ruie, Anna's sister. Confusing enough??? Hope to hear from you to share any further information. I would love to have Calista's line if you want to share. Kristie
