I would very much like to learn information about D. and Clary (Clacy) Neely. Their birthdates are unknown, but Clary is from North Carolina. No documentation has been found to tell us where D. was born, but family lore has always been that my gr-grandfather Thomas' father was from India. Their one known child is Thomas (Tom) Neely who was born 1867 in North Carolina. He lived in Red Banks, Marshall County, Mississippi with his wife through the 1900 - 1910 census. It is not known if he moved to Memphis, Tennessee yet he died there in January of 1930. His daughter Fannie Little was the informant so he may have lived with her at the time. He was a widow so I am also looking for information on the death of his wife Mary Curry Neely. Getting back to D and Clary (Clacy) Neely, I would like to know if they migrated to Mississippi and have any and all information I can find out about them.

I am researching African-American NEELY and BURTON families from the Holly Springs and Byhalia , Mississippi areas. Thomas NEELY born May 1867 in North Carolina and Mary CURRY NEELY born July, 1867 in Mississippi or Georgia . I would like to know the parents of both and and what area of North Carolina and Georgia they were from.

Children of Tom and Mary NEELY were: Fannie born March 1885 in Mississippi , Jessie born August 1886 in Mississippi and Elder NEELY born April, 1880 in Mississippi . Elder married Nina Mae Eliza Beatrice Jane BURTON born May 1892 in Mississippi whose father was Charles BURTON and mother was Alma (Duck) HEARN BURTON. I would appreciate any information on ancestors or descendents.

I am very interested in finding out about Neely slaves. I have been told Thomas' father was brought to America as a slave from India .

I would love to hear from anyone with information. You can find more on my families as well as links to other Neely researchers at http://www.debdavis.org/.
