Thomas McNeil - Private
|
Thomas McNeil (McNiel, McNeill, McNeal), born about 1835 in County Roscommon, Eire, enlisted October 1861 in Company C, 35th Massachusetts. Invalided out February 1863. Evidently re-enlisted with a veteran's bounty in the 28th Massachusetts, Company K, in February 1864. Captured at Reams Station, Virginia, August 1864. Incarcerated at prisoner-of-war facility at Salisbury, North Carolina, where he died in January 1865. Wife Hannah (Sullivan) McNeil, married 1856: she and children lived in Dorchester (now South Boston) during the war. Believe he was father of our ancestor John Alexander McNeil, born 1857 in Dorchester.
