Anthony Neale receives other land from Wm Rosewell as part of a marriage agreement to his daughter Elizabeth. as mentioned earlier, Wm Roswell's 1695 will gives William's Folly to his grandson Anthony Neale Jr. Don't know how the orginal tract was conveyed from John Williams to Wm Roswell, but John Williams' son or brother Thomas Williams d. 1713 had a piece of William's Folly as mentioned in his 1713 will. Thomas' daughter Elizabeth Williams married Nathaniel Suit of Newport Hundred area and she mentions William's Folly in her 1773 will. Anthony Neale Sr's 1723 will also mentions William's Folly which was given to his son Raphael. Anthony Neale Jr d. 1722. There is no further mention of the Williams Folly land in Raphael records or in his 1743 will. the only found conveyance for this land is the 260 Acres – James Muncaster from William Cooper, 10 Nov 1748....and James Muncaster mentions William's Folly in his 1753 will. there may be another moiety relationship which will help explain how the Williams family also held a part of the same tract as the Neale's during the same time. ==== Charles County Maryland Land Record Liber Z#2, 1744-1753; Page 296. At the request of James Muncaster, the following deed was recorded on Dec 2, 1748.
