Milton and Daris, The James Nevil, b. 1796, who is in the family tree Thomas and Elizabeth Tiller Nevil, which Daris shared, shows him married to Sally Schrader 22 May 1818. I have a microfilm copy of the Amherst Co., VA Marriage records which show the marriage as follows: 1818 May 22 James Nevils, husband; Sally Shrader, wife; George Shrader, security & witness. There is one problem with James Nevil who m. Sally Shrader. He seems to be listed in two different families. In Ivan B. Nevill, Sr.'s book, Genealogy of the Nevill Family, he is also shown as James Nevil (no birth or death date), the son of Col. James Nevil who was born 1728 and died 12-20-1784 in Amherst Co., VA. Col. James Nevil does name a son James in his will, which is in the Nevill book. Ivan Nevill shows the source for the will as Amherst Co. Will Book 2, 1780-1786; he also shows the will was presented to court Feb. 7, 1785. I am trying to learn what happened to the James named in the will of 1784 and the James who was the son of Thomas and Elizabeth Tiller Nevil, who also lived in Amherst Co.. It looks like two James Nevils could have been in Amherst Co. about the same time. How did you learn that Thomas had a son James?
