Esther Neill Frederick Co. Virginia

Have been researching my ggg grandmother Esther Neill
for many years but can find nothing on her family.

We know that Esther married Ezekiel Stansbury/Stanbrough
19 Aug 1788 Winchester, Frederick Co. Virginia. One of her sons stated that her maiden name was Neil/ Neill and that she had married a Kramer/ Kremer First then Stansbury.

Cannot find any Kremer/ Esther Neil Marriages in Virginia unless she married and then migrated to Frederick Co. Va with her husband

Esther's birth per Stansberry researchers was Dec. 5, 1761
Lurgan, Ireland. Not one single Source for her birth, so
its very hard to take the birth as fact.Her last child Esther was b/ 1815, I don't think Esther was still having children at 54 so I'm sure her age is incorrect, per 1830 census her birth was 1770-1780 50-60

I think it may be possible that she was related to the Neills of Frederick Co. Virginia if Esther was a Neill, WHO WERE LARGE LAND OWNERS but have found nothing that will connect her to these Neills.

I'm thinking that she was in fact, Esther Neil Kremer
and her son was incorrect.This could have been a Stansberry story that was simple not true, no one seems it have a real Source for the story, that her maiden name was Neil/ Neill.


Ezekiel and Esther Stansbury migrated to Greene Co. Tennessee and was there about 1797 and had a large family.
Esther died in 1850.

Anything that may lead me to her family would be greatly
appreciated.

Jerry
