Clint was born in 1850 in Putnam Co., IN, the second son of James and Permelia O'Neal, my great, great grandparents.

Hi Larry, I neglected to add my dad also died if pneumonia. You are right about families growing, but my branch has shrunk. I am sure there are many cousins out there I knowing bout as now I only communicate with 2. One in Caliph and one in VA. Rod

Thanks John, One correction about Bible. The first entry is the Birth of Oliver O'Neal in 1798, not 1784 as I stated, and the entries are not all that many, about 3 1/2 pages. The last entry is the death of Oliver. There were fourteen children total (2 Marriages) and as I recall 11 children births and some deaths are listed. I can dig it out and e-mail entries if you are interested Rod

Rod, Thanks for your reply. You are right about the similarities between our lives. It is kind of like we are living parallel lives. It is amazing to me how large the O'Neil family is today. However, 12 and more children was common a few years back. At that rate a family grows large very quickly.

Well Rod you tipped your hand now we want to see all of what is there. There are a whole bunch of O'Neal's waiting for you to sort out 100+ years of the Bible writings. If you need help just ask us and we will give advice. John O'Neal, Embreeville, PA

I am looking for O'Neills from Leinster, particularly those from the Rathvilly - Clonegal areas. These O'Neills were sometimes called the O'Neills of Moyacomb and some say the O'Neills of the Decies. It is purported that the famous playwright Eugene O'Neill hails from this group. I am looking for O'Neills from Prospect (aka Coolmelagh or Coolmela); those related to Jackie O'Neill who was killed in the aftermath of the 1798 Rebellion, his son Danny Neil, or his grandsons John O'Neill (who emigrated to Queensland, Australia after 1882), Patrick (who died in America in 1896), Myles who died in 1891, Daniel who died in 1896, or Michael (who was born in 1858 and lived in New York City until at least the 1920s). The last mentioned Michael was married to Mary and had at least two children, Mabel and Daniel P., both born in Ireland in the period of 1886 through 1889. Mabel was listed in the 1920 census as an operator, ladies dresses and Daniel as a bookkeeper for an aircraft company. In later City Directories Daniel is listed as living at 16 Arden in the Washington Heights/Inwood section of Manhattan. He was also listed as being an accountant for a jewelry company. Dan J.

Amy, This is fantastic. I was born David Larry O'Neil in Tullahoma, Tennessee. My dad died from pneumonia when I was 3 days old. My mother remarried a childhood sweetheart when I was 8 and we moved to Texas. When I was 10, my stepfather adopted me. That is the reason for the change from O'Neil to Nix. My stepfather is now dead too and so are his parents. However, my mother knows a fair amount about his family. I also have a half brother that lives in the Dallas, Texas area and one that lives in Germany. I can get information on the Nix clan from them too. I have only been working on my family tree for two or three months. So, I am pretty new at this. I did have a good start on the O'Neil clan since my grandfather had written a very good account of our branch of the O'Neil family that traced all the way back to their entry to the USA from Ireland. My e-mail address is: oilman@lx.net Hopefully we can communicate direct and help each other trace our roots.

Larry, Sorry your names don't seem to fit in. I have Jesse's first wife as Annie Brown and his second wife as Tirza Teague. Mary

Larry, Please allow me to butt in here. I was born Rodney L. O'Neal in Electra, TX. My dad died when I was 3 years old. My mother remarried when I was 8 years old and we moved to Monahans, TX. My Stepfather was Otis W. Hooper and the Hooper's have printed a very extensive book on US Hooper's. I have a sister who lives near Bullard, TX, and another in Phoenix, AZ. I too am new at genealogy, but I was fortunate to have the O'Neal Family Bible which starts at 1784 and ends 1884. My gggrandfather was born in NC and moved to Wilson Co TN before 1820. In 1830 the family moved to Missouri. Forgive me for butting in but reading the similarities between your life and mine I had to respond Rod O'Neal

Ummm I think you e-mailed me by mistake...You were addressing "Larry" but I'm "Lori". Since I've got you reading this...do you know of any info regarding O'Neill's from Grand Cascapedia, Quebec, CAN? OR O'Neill's from Northern California?? They would be the same family...Came from Ireland to Canada and some went to California. Thanks Lori Shelton lori@ipong.com www.ipong.com

Larry, This is strange (maybe not) but I am a Nix, too, but I married an O'Neil. I joined this email board because we know nothing about our O'Neil ancestors; however, I likewise know nothing about my Nix ancestors. Both my husband's O'Neil grandfather and my Nix great grandfather died young. It seems that the family histories were buried with them. My husband is from upstate New York (Syracuse), and I am from North Georgia. Do you know about any Nix ancestry stemming from North Georgia?

Larry Nix you get an AttaBoy. My Henry O'Neal (spelled O'Neil in the Cocke Co, TN 1850 Census) is listed as age 34 with his wife Lucinda age 36. These O'Neals settled in Knights Prairie, Hamilton Co, IL. Two other O'Neil families are listed, Joseph and Nancy as well as Pleasant and Mary. 1830 census has heads of families Darius Oneal, Joseph Oneal, Margaret Oneal and Washington Oneal. Drop me a line personally and let's see if we can figure out who is whom. John O'Neal, Embreeville, PA

Mary, I just read your reply to Micha concerning Jesse and his two wives. I have a Jesse listed as a relative that had two wives. His first was Julia Sneed (Lane?) and they had no children. I think his second wife was a Susong and they had six children. They were Ida, Fannie, Laura, Raymond, Doll, and William. William was born May 13, 1831. Jesse had two sisters. They were Pleasant and Fannie. Does this match your tree, or does it match anyone else's tree?
