Betty,
My great grandfather was John McNeill.Although I am sure he is not specifically the John McNeill that you are interested in, he may be related.My John was born in Cushendun, Co. Antrim, Ireland between 1847 and 1865.He died in Cushendun on 18 Aug 1945.I just received his death certificate in the mail stating that he was 98 yrs old when he died.Personally, I don't believe it because he had three siblings who emigrated from Ireland to America.They all seem to have been born in the 1860s.
His father, though, was James McNeill who came from the townland of Ballyteerim up the hill from Cushendun.I believe that James McNeill's mother was a McBride.The McBride family owned the Cushendun Hotel.It is possible that your John is my John's uncle or grandfather?Does anything sound familiar?
Please let me know.I'm always interested in swapping info.
Mike
