I'm still trying to find out all the information I can on my great grandparents. Tonight I'm concentrating on my great grandmother, Mary Undine Brown, who married my great grandfather, Joseph Abner (Joab) Johnson. They married in Pontotoc Co. in July 1858, and then must have moved rather soon after to Neshoba Co., as my grandfather, John Randal Johnson was born in Neshoba in June of 1859. In 1861, they had another son, James H. Johnson. They were listed on the 1860 Neshoba Co. census, Joseph being 23 and Mary, 21, with one child, John R. Johnson. Joseph was listed as being born in Alabama and listed as being a wagon maker. The only other record I have found on him as an adult was where he bought land from a Washington Fry - 40 acres in the Williams or Williamstown area, west of Philadelphia. I cannot locate him after 1860, so I assume that he probably joined up with the Confederacy and was either killed or died of a disease and never came back to Neshoba Co. Mary rem! arried within only a couple of years to a neighbor, a widower by the name of Judge Samuel McNeil. He was much older than Mary, having been born in 1800 and he had a grown son - Green Berry McNeil and at least two daughters - Mary Elizabeth McNeil and a married daughter, Sara Durant. I have a copy of Judge McNeil's will, but it really doesn't tell me anything about Mary Undine, except that she was the Executrix and she inherited everything. Now, I believe they had one child together - Alice. One of the McNeil girls married a Duke and the other, an Osborn. Green Berry McNeil was married to an Arledge girl. I thought maybe if I mentioned some of these names, somebody might descend from some of these people and might know something about Mary Undine (Brown) Johnson McNeil. Well, Judge McNeil died in 1865 and there was Mary, with her own two sons by my g grandfather, the two mcNeil girls, and one other child - William. I don't know how he could have possibly belonged to J! udge McNeil, but he is listed in the household with all the rest of them. Later, in the 1880's, Mary married a third time to a Pinckney C. Webb, but they had no children together. He was a widower also and did apparently have children, as I once heard from one of his descendants by e-mail. This descendant did not have any info on Mary Undine either except that he knew she was buried in the Good Hope Church Cemetery. Thanks for any help you can give me. Sue (Johnson) Howard
