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
