    • About William Neal

      Col. Pleasant L. Neal and his wife, Corda, came to Texas with their three children, James, V.'illiam and Lou Jane, in 1879, from KcMinnville, Tennessee.

      They stayed at Moody, where some of their relatives already lived, until Col. Neal bought one of the largest and finest farms in Central Texas and moved to Troy in Bell County.

      The farm was divided by the Bell and McLennan county lines.

      The Neals (sometimes spelled Neil) wel*e early settlers in Virginia.

      William Neil moved from Virginia to Warren County, Tennessee, in about 1797.

      He purchased a large amount of land from the Federal government.

      Willliam Neil raised a family of 15 children, gave them all land and the children cleared it, put in farms and built their own houses.

      Col. Pleasant Neal died on his farm at Troy in 1903 and is buried in the Naylor Cemetery, where all the Neals and Naylors are buried. William Naylor was a nephew of Pies. Neal. [4]
