My sixth great-grandfather William Neill is mentioned in a family history. However I not been able to find out any more information about him. Here's the quote from William Jolliff's book : Historical, Genealogical and Biographical Account of the Joliff Family of Virginia: Also sketches of the Neill's, Janney's, Hollingsworth's and other cognate families "The first Friends' Meeting organized in Ireland was held at William Edmundson's house in Lurgan, in the year 1654. This William Edmundson was a native of Westmoreland, England, and had been a captain in Cromwell's army, by whom he was settled in Ireland on dispossessed lands. Another meeting was begun at Cavan in 1655, and to this meeting a William O'Neill joined himself in 1656. Dropping the " O" from his name, he ever afterwards wrote himself as " William Neill." Sewell speaks of him as William Neill." I've also look thru Sewell's book online but not found this supposed reference. Anyone have information on the Cavan meetings? Bob Neal
