General Notes: Husband - Reynolds Christy Neill
He was born in County Antrim, Ireland, where the Reynolds and Neill families were as old as the Pillar Towers. He emigrated to America when a young man, and located at Canonsburg, Washington County, Pennsylvania. Soon afterward he married and engaged in the mercantile business, riding to Philadelphia on horse-back to order his goods, after which they were hauled over the mountains to Canonsburg. He was engaged in the mercantile business for many years and also purchased a farm in North Strabane township in 1810, one mile south of Canonsburg.
He came to Washington County in 1790, and started a store in what became Canonsburg, and conducted business continuously until 1830, when he retired.
