Rachel Neville

Leads -- Info from http://linda_walker999.tripod.com/aqwn82.htm: Parents may be John Neville and Johanna Porter . Notes from genforum: Three children can be proven for the immigrant John Nevill, whose will was probated 4 February 1664/5, Charles Co., MD. Those children were Eleanor, William and Rachel. The first two were likely by his wife Bridget Thorseby/Throsley, and the third child was probably by his wife Joanna/Joanne Porter (b. ca. 1627). After his death, and before 13 Aug. 1666, Joanna married Thomas Hussey, probably in Charles Co., MD. Children of John Nevill: 1. Eleanor, b. ca. Christmas 1640, St. Mary's Co., MD; m. John Lambert by 1662, probably in Charles Co., MD. 2. William, b. by 1645, probably St. Mary's Co., MD. 3. Rachel, b. ca. 1658, probably St. Mary's Co., MD; m. Michael Ashford by 13 Nov. 1677, probably Charles Co., MD. The reader is referred to 1. Testamentary Proceedings, Liber 1 E:87-88 for John's will. 2. Archives of Maryland 53:134 for Joanna's age. 3. Archives of Maryland 53:330 and 53:214 for son William. 4.

According to a Petition, found in the Land Records of St. Mary's County, MD (Now in Calvert County), Liber 4, Folio 186 of the Land Warrants (Records are kept in Annapolis, MD), John transported his wife, Bridget, in 1639, from England.
