    3. "I have a copy of Elijah Field Neavill's death certificate and it says his parents were Elijah Neavill and Sarah Greenwalt. The informant was a Lela Lucker." Ryan 1850 census - Pheba age 24 1860 census - Phebe age 36 1870 census - I did not fine Pheba or Elijah? Marriages: Elijah F. Neville .....parents Elijah Nevills and Phila Greenwood to Amanda Austin Jan 16, 1886 Henry E. Nevill .......parents Eliza Nevill [Elijah] and Fealy Greenwood to Edith E. Hatcher Apr 8 1886 Lela Neavill .......parents Elijah Neavill and .......Austin to Paul Tucker Sept 16 1912 So, maybe Elijah's grand-daughter, Lela Tucker, got it wrong? Her grandparents were propably dead before she was born? The Greenwood/Greenwalt switch is understandable, but how did we get from Pheba/Phebe/Phila/Feely to........Sarah? I thought maybe her name was Ophelia? The only other idea I came up with is that Elijah left the county and married a second time to a Sarah? His son George left the county ca 1870, maybe Elijah did too? Elijah Field Neavill ended up in Logan Co IL? [Elijah had a daughter Phebe and also a daughter Sarah?] So, have I made my case for Pheba/Phebe/Phila/Feely Greenwood?? ____ Barbara
