John Neill, third child of Lewis Neill and Lydia Hollingsworth, married Anne Hollingsworth, who was born June 12, 1751, and was the daughter of Isaac Hollingsworth and Rachel Parkins, his wife. They had nine children, namely, Rachel, who married a Carter; Ruth, who married a Miller; Lydia, who died young; Phoebe, who married a Chandler, and afterwards Wharton; Mary, who married a Taylor; Isaac, who died single; Lewis, who married a Parkins; Thomas, who married Mary McPherson (daughter of John and Hannah, of Berk[e]ley County, in 1804); and Abraham, who died single. His father left him a large tract of land situated in what is now Clarke County, a negro man named Forrester, a house and lot in Winchester, and a sum of money to be paid out of his movable estate. Some of these lands are hold by his descendants to this day. John Neill was not a Friend, though his wife was.
