The later entries were made by Aretha Christine (GEE) NEILL. The Bible is now in the hands of Pauline (PRICE) NEILL, from Holdenville, Hughes County, Ok. I do have a photo copy of these pages and would be happy to make more copies. This Bible begins with P. H. NEILL, my great grandfather, who I believe to be born in SC. He lived in McNairy County, TN., married and raised his family there,and died there. After his death, his wife Elvira moved to Waxahachie, Ellis County, TX. She stayed in Ellis County with her oldest daughter Callie NEILL MCCORMACK until about 1900 or 1901, her daughter Belle NEILL and her youngest son James Asa NEILL until about 1916 in the Fall of the year when Elvira, Belle, James and his family came to Yeager, Hughes County, OK. About a year later they moved to the Bethel Community, on the Seminole and Hughes County line where they spent their remaining years. I will be adding the names and a couple of corrections in [ ]. I do have much more information on this family and would like to share. I would love to hear from you if we have a connection.
