    1. [NEVILLE-L] early Nevells & Richardsons Cecil/Balt. Counties
    2. For those of the Edward Neville (?-1756)/Cecil County line descending through his son John Neville (1740 - 1800) MD>PA>OH>PA, married a Sarah Richardson (?-?) and had several children in Maryland prior to moving to PA in 1797 or so. Note: The earliest Edward Nevil record in Cecil County that I've found is dated 1721. The earliest Maryland Edward Nevel record I've found is 1699 in Dorchester County. I found a few records that are new/new to me: 1709 - SARAH NEVELL, widow, of Cecil County, Maryland, power of Attorney to John Anderson, of Baltimore County, Maryland. Signed SARAH NEVELL. (Baltimore County, Maryland Deed Records, V.1 1659-1739. By John Davis, Heritage Books Inc. 1996.) Richardson, Thomas. 1719 - estate inv. By WILLIAM NEVELL and Thomas James. Value: 73.6.6 Inv. 4:108 (Baltimore County, Maryland Estates, VI. Robert Barnes. 1968) Also, Shirley gave me a copy of the following Nevilles listed with a bunch of Richardsons: WILLIAM NEVILL. Baltimore County Taxables 1702 and 1703, Southside Gunpoweder Hundred. THO. NEVILL. Baltimore County Taxables 1702, 1703 and 1704, Southside Gunpoweder Hundred. (Baltimore County, Maryland Tax List 1699-1706. Compiled by Raymond B. Clark, Jr & Sara Seth Clark. p. 22) This established (to my mind): a) a Neville - Richardson connection in Baltimore County, and b) a Nevell Cecil County - Baltimore County connection. Does anyone know when Harford County was created out of Baltimore County? Happy New Year! Peter Neville

    1. [NEVILLE-L] 1880 Laclede Co. Osage, MO Census
    2. I have found Leroy Brownlow m to Elizabeth Nevill ? and children on the 1880 census. ED 77 pg 77 line 10 dwelling # 39 Family # 139. If someone has access to this census I would appreciate it if they would look and see if the person listed below dwelling #40 Family # 140 is a Nevel ?. I can't read it on the copy that I looked at. It was a very poor copy. I am still looking for my gr grandmother Elizabeth's parents.

    1. [NEVILLE-L] More on Dutch Jean deNeufville
    2. Neville, Gabe
    3. Here are a few more sites mentioning that Dutch Jean de Neufville. He's clearly a prominent person in Dutch history, so he can't be the same person as the doctor. They may be related, however? Surely the name is French. The first two sites are in Dutch. Anybody who knows a related language may be able to make some of it out. http://www.geschiedenis.com/hoofdlijn/1750.html http://194.229.98.107/Oudover.htm This one lists his birthday as May 25, 1729...40 years after the doctor arrived in New York. It also says he started the "fourth English War"...whatever that was. http://tekka.wwa.com/~mjm/almanac2/may/0525.html "1729, Jean de Neufville, Dutch/US merchant (started 4th English war)" Sounds like an interesting character!

I don't guess this could be "our" Jean deNeufville? or related? I would guess not,e xcept that his letters' inclusion at the LOC implies some important American connection. Might be interesting....

One problem: Dorothy Kimbrel's theory that Edward was the son of John Neville, and grandson of Dr. Jean deNeufville makes a little less sense to me in light of this letter. Would deNeufville's great-grandson still identify himself as French a century later? I doubt it. I'm starting to place more credence in the suggestion that Edward was the original immigrant...this seems, certainly, to suggest that very strongly.

Date: Mon, 4 Jan 1999 06:45:38 -0500 Jan thank you for your helpful info on how to find out more on my ggfather Wm..J. Neville I checked the Accomack co. census and find evidence that he was there in both 1870(found his name in index but couldn't find on actual census) In 1880 census I found his family but not him although he was still living in the area I am almost sure. He had a daughter born in MD. in 1855 and my grandfather Wm.. J. Neville 2nd was born in MD. in 1859. another daughter was born in VA in 1875. Both census I checked indicate Wm.. SR was born in S.C. and that would have been Jan 23 .1819 So it appears that he is likely the Wm.. J. Neville in 1850 S.C. census and moved to MD sometime before 1855 and then to VA. by 1870 I am still digging up info. but things seem to be coming together a bit. I am copying this to two other people who are researching Joshua Neville .

    1. [NEVILLE-L] Bonham & Neville
    2. Shirley L Wilcox
    3. George, If you haven't already done so, I suggest you look at the 1850 census of Howard Co., MO. Perhaps the N. M. Bonham living there was your Nehemiah Martin Bonham. Note that a Presley Neal is in the same county. Should it have been Neavil? N. M. Bonham, Howard Co., MO, p195 Presley Neal, Howard Co., MO, p150 In Iowa I found a Martin Bonham listed in 1852 at Clayton Co, IA, p4, but nothing for 1850. Other Bonhams of possible interest in 1850 Iowa: Emily Bonham, Johnson Co, p128 John Bonham, Delaware Co, p344 S H Bonham, Johnson Co, p11 1850 Grant Co, WI: Francis M Bonham, p81 Francis H Bonham, p31 Ormesher, Susan, MO Marriages Before 1840 (Baltimore, GPC, 1982) p22 Bonham, Francis H & Mary A Neville, 23 Dec 1830, Pike Bonham, Nehemiah M & Mahala P Nevil, 11 Jan 1838, Pike p166 Nevil, Samuel E & Charlotte Boon, 7 June 1832, Pike Neville, Presley & Delila Keithley, 30 Apr 1835, Pike p227 Tribue, Edward & Lydia Nevill, 23 May 1835, Pike The Shelby Co, KY Nevills are a group I know very little about. They may descend from Oswald Nevill who m Mrs Charles Roger 17 Nov 1795, Shelby Co, KY. He or another man by this name m Susannah Wardfall, 3 Apr 1805, Shelby Co, KY. She may be the Susan Nevill, b 1 Apr 1783, d 12 Feb 1872 bur at the Christianburg Cemetery along with William Nevill, b 4 Dec 1808, d 17 Jly 1873. She was living with Henry Nevil, age 46 on the 1860 Shelby Co, KY census. By the way, I used to use the Sutro Library almost every Friday afternoon when I was attending San Francisco State College. It was a great place to research except that most books were on closed shelves.

    3. Hi Jan, and Happy New Year to you all, Sorry, no sources given on the three specific Neville cards save as noted in my message--and I sorta doubt that any are provided on any of the other reels. This needs checking. My message was a direct quote of the cards--less any errors on my part. My finding these reels was as per the usual set of events: my goal for the day's work on NC and SC census (Yelverton/Yelvaton) was completed, my bag was packed for moving on, then my eye happened onto a small booklet just sitting there on the shelf some 30 feet from the microfilm cabinets. I was meant to see it. Same booklet describing the below mentioned cards. I looked at only the N's. I was pushing a meeting time and thus no time for detailed reading. Next time my travels take me through Athens, Ga.----------! Now here is a switch in topics for you, a real "Pie in the Sky" thought for your consideration--we know that Yelverton/Yelvaton was b. Va, moved with Dad to NC where both fought in the Revolution, went to KY and then on to TN where he received bounty lands and where he is buried. We know he married Elizabeth and had a passel of kids, but Elizabeth who? (whom? I never did know the difference here). As per his Rev. War pension/bounty land applications, we know he served three different times--protecting the border and also marching off to burn out the Cherokees. Now another switch--I saw a reference last year which described benefits provided to the Cherokees who had been moved out west--if they could prove their family linkage back to the eastern side of the USA. Some Neville Cherokees were mentioned and somewhere I have to find the microfilms which have whatever details there might happen to be on these Nevilles--another task listed with all the other "gottados". Now ! just for speculation, could Elizabeth have been Cherokee? Taking the name Elizabeth to forsake here birth name? Now don't fry me on this one--as I said, "Just for speculation!" You all have a safe and sane New Years, be sweet the rest of the year, and remember who you are. Tom >> Jan & David Faulkner <[email protected]> 12/29 12:01 PM >>> Hi Tom, Thanks for taking time to transcribe the Neville references. Did the author of the notes by any chance post the source for the following two references? Card 3. Neville Jacob Jr.: Wit.

Maybe it will provide a clue where William Neville/Lucy Oglesby resided in 1822 when Mahala was born. The following is an excerpt for an obituary of my gg-grandfather, Martin Neaville Bonham: Martin Bonham was born in Iowa, August 28, 1850. His mother died when he was less than five months old and his father when he was eleven months old. With his sister and three brothers were taken into the family of his aunt and uncle near Lancester, Wisconsin. Originally I assumed Martin was born in Grant Co., where the Bonham families moved after Pike Co., MO. The aunt and uncle referred to in the obituary are Francis Holmes Bonham and Mary Ann Neville. I was wondering if you have index data to the 1850 Iowa census? A search of the WFT online data yields that there is a Martin Bonham in the 1850 Iowa census, which could be Nehemiah going by his middle name, but I don't know which county. Francis is listed in Grant, WI, (I have seen the original), but no Nehemiah after 1840 census. Also, I have traced my Bartlett line back to Shelby Co., KY, where I also see Nevills. Have you connected these Nevilles to the others that you have researched? Could William of Shelby, KY and William of Pike, MO be one in the same? Again I see a familiar name of Amelia Neville in an 1808 Shelby KY marriage. Also there is a John Neville land grant on Clear Creek, which I believe is in Shelby County, and John H. Neville is the first Nevill that I have seen to appear in a Shelby Co. census. There seems to be a trail of names suggesting some sort of relationship to the Generals, but I have seen nothing posted for these Nevills. I'm trying to prepare a list of lookups to perform in the limited time that I will have at the library. I could probably spend weeks confirming leads that I have found via the internet, and I want to prioritize based upon efficiency (i.e., where I have page references). Do you have any hot Neville leads that you would like looked up?

    3. Trusting you all had a pleasant holiday. Someone on one of the lists which I receive asked about the Albertsens of Pekin, Illinois, maybe two to three months ago. And, I do not remember which list, thus sorry for this mail to the other lists. (Also sorr that my return key just quit on me!) A new book just published: "Pekin, A Pictorial History" (G. Bradley Publishing, St. Louis, Missouri 63131) provides three separate Albertsen listings: Page 130: Lambert Albertsen was a prominent merchant living in Pekin for 73 years as! one of Pekin's "oldest and most highly esteemed residents." For 43 years he was a leading grocer, merchant and the owner/organizer of the independent Biscuit & Cracker Company. His father had come to America from Germany in 1858, (after a trans-Atlantic voyage of 63 days). Son, Lambert, initially apprenticed as a buggy painter for the flourishing T. & H. Smith Wagon Company. He took over his father's grocery trade at North 4th and Margaret in 1873 after his father's untimely death. A faithful member of Grace M. E. Church, he also served for 14 years on the Pekin School Board. Page 132: Ubbo Albertsen, eminent Pekin businessman and statesman, was born in Emden, Germany in 1845. He sailed with his family to America when he was 11 years old. As a young man in Pekin, he painted wagons for the Teis Smith Wagon Works. By 1885 he had bought out John! L. Hinners' other partners and, with Hinners went on to run one o manufacturers. A Hinners' organ and piano was a valued musical instrument in churches, homes and concert halls throughout America. He next became stockholder and supervisor in the newly reorganized Pekin Wagon Company. In civic service, he was both state senator and legislator, as well as Pekin tax collector, board of education member and city alderman. He married Sophia Koch who bore him ten children. At the time of his death in 1926, he resided at 714 North Capitol and is buried at Lakeside Cemetery. Grace Methodist Church served as his house of worship. Page 169: (Picture of a house) The residence at 418 South Sixth Street was built late in the 19th century by Albert Albertsen, a prominent Pekin businessman. A native of Germany, he moved to Pekin in 1858. In 1884, he and Henry Koch established a paint and wallpaper business with funeral arrangements as a sideline. His house ! and business subsequently were the property of his son, Frederick, who with his wife, Edith Wilson Albertsen, and their son, Wilson F., occupied the home until 1929. In 1930, the home was sold to---Eugene F. Lohnes,----(later) to Dale Sarver.---The residence was unique with its bay windows, decorative wrought-iron work on the roof and a stairway "bubble" with curved windows. To the rear of the home was a carriage house which included a tack room. Hope this reaches the correct person, Tom Dirksen
