What was relationship between Mary Nail and Galbraith Neill
My cousin, Lorna Gail Friehofer and I, [Kathryn Mero HOLMES Lang] are both descended from James Holmes, b. Bef. 14-Jun-1747, [Baptized 6-14-1747, Tinkling Springs Church, Fishersville, Augusta, VA] who married Mary Nail, b. Abt. 1777, -married 04-Mar-1772, -Marriages of Rowan Co., NC 1753-1868, By Brent H. Holcomb, 1986. Gene. Pub. Co.
Mary Nail Holmes was the daughter of James Neill, who died Nov-1793, and his wife Agnes.They lived on property in Rowan Co., North Carolina next to -adjacent- to property owned by Gailbraith Neill.
There is a will in Iredell Co for James Neill dated June 22, 1793. [Iredell Co. was created from Rowan County, I believe.] ~ Wife not named, children: Sarah, Hannah Kerr, William, Archibald, James and Robert. James Holmes is mentioned, also. This Neill family was sometimes listed as Nail in early records.
Phineas Holmes and his wife Rachel are the ancestors of Lorna Gail and myself. Phineas was the son of James Holmes and Mary Nail- her father, as stated being James Neill.
Sincerely, Kathryn Mero [Holmes] Lang
