Neal on 19 Nov. 1846 in Andrew Co., Missouri. In the Missouri 1850 census, a Lewis and Jane Hale are listed. After examining the the image of the wedding license with a magnifier, I am pretty sure it's Lewisa J. Neal, not "I." I think this is the couple you are looking for, but the birth dates are off a little (which is a frequent event in genealogical research!) Lewis Hale was 25 (born 1825) in 1850; Lewisa Jane was 22 (born 1828). Both born in Tennessee. There was one other Neal marriage recorded: Charles Neal married Nancy Perry 10 Mar 1849, in Andrew Co., MO. Might be a relative of Lewisa. Hope this helps.
