I appear to be descended from this Neill (born around 1788-9) through his daughter Sophia and her son David (born around 1852 and father of my oldest 100% relative Malcolm J McNeill). But I can find little info on the family as a whole. It seems like he may have been a son of a relative or an illegitimate child as no father is ever mentioned and Neill (1788) was too old to be father.
