      Roger Neal was the youngest son of David and Joannah Neall. He was born circa 1735 in Amelia County Virginia where he died in 1785. Roger married Ann Hatchett, who was born in 1742, daughter of William Hatchett and Margaret Remay Neall. Margaret Remay was first married to Roger's uncle John Neall and married William Hatchett after John's death. In William Hatchett's will, dated August 28, 1784, it states that his daughter "Ann Neal, deceased, formerly the wife of Roger Neal", so Ann died prior to 1784.

      On January 25, 1758, David Neall gave his sons Roger, Stephen and William each 100 acres on Beaver Pond Beach. David also gave Roger "the land and plantation whereon I now live". Other deed records show that Roger lived on the South Fork of Beaver Pond Beach of Deep Creek.

      1. David Neal, 2. Thomas Neal, 3. John Neal, 4. Archibald Neal, 5. Tabitha Neal, 6. Abraham Hatchett Neal was born in 1774 in Amelia County Virginia. He married Eleanor "Elly" Short in Halifax County Virginia on May 25, 1803. Abraham primarily lived in Pittsylvania County Virginia but owned land in Pittsylvania and Halifax Counties. He was closely associated with his brother Thomas who lived in Halifax County and according to deed records Abraham may have lived in Halifax County at one point. Although Abraham owned several hundred acres of land, the 1850 census lists him as a shoemaker with a real estate value of $200.

      David Neal was born in Ireland. His will is dated 24 Jun 1775 and recorded in Amelia Co., VA, WB 2, p. 176. His personal property was appraised 10 May 1776 (Amelia Co., VA, WB 2, p. 194).

      David's will names his children: Thomas, Stephen, William, John, Roger, and Mary Morgan. He also names grandchildren William and Joannah Reeves. Son Roger was named his executor. His wife was not named. Other sources record that David's daughter Mary married Samuel Morgan and daughter Eleanor married Thomas Reeves.

      David's son Roger married Ann Hatchett, daughter of William Hatchett and Margaret Remay. Some of their descendants lived in Caswell Co., NC (see listing under Roger Neal and Anne Hatchett).

      Roger's will, dated 16 Mar 1785 is recorded in Amelia Co., VA, WB 3, p. 331. He died prior to 22 Sep 1785, the date his executors sold his plantation. He named 6 children: David, Thomas, John, Archer, Abraham, and Tabitha. It was his will that all his land be sold and the money be equally divided between his 2 youngest sons, Archibald and Abraham; that the remainder of his estate be sold and the money applied to the schooling of his sons John, Archibald and Abraham. He appointed as executors his sons Thomas and John Neal and Robert Marshall.
