    • ...I take the year of Joseph Neville's birth from a statement in the William and Mary College Quarterly, Series I, Volume II, page 286, where it says: "Depositions taken in Hardy County at William Bullitt's house show that Joseph Neville, Sr., father-in-law of thomas Dodson, was 83 years in 1790". if both this statement and the deposition are accurate, Joseph Neville was born in 1707 and was the youngest child of John and Elizabeth (Bohannan) Nevill. this deposition is important in a matter more vital than merly determining Joseph's year of birth. It indicates that Joseph had a daughter who married Thomas Dodson.
