Neill, John C.

History of Washington County
John C. Neill, a representative business man of Canonsburg, is proprietor of a large grocery establishment here, and he is a member of one of the oldest families of the place, the oldest tax payers and people who were identified with the growth and development of the borough since its organization, having been established in this section of Washington County for 119 years.
He was born in Cross Creek Township, April 29, 1870, and is a son of Samuel and Elizabeth (Berry) Neill.
The father of Mr. Neill was born in North Strabane Township, Washington County, Pa., and still survives, at the age of 76. The mother was born in Nottingham Township, Washington County, and died in April, 1909, at the age of 74 years. For many years the father was a farmer and stock raiser in North Strabane Township, moving from there to Cross Creek Township, and ten years later to Humeston, Iowa. The paternal grandfather, Reynolds C. Neill, was born in Canonsburg and inherited the old homestead farm in North Strabane Township from his father and lived and died there. His birth place was on the corner of Center avenue and College street. His father, also Reynolds C. Neill, was born in County Antrim, Ireland, and came to Washington County in 1790, and about that time started a store in what is now Canonsburg, and conducted business continuously until 1830, when he retired and he died in April, 1842. He married a Miss Bowland. The second Reynolds C. Neill married Flora McCormick, of Ohio, and they had the following children: Thomas, Samuel, Sarah and Nancy, neither of whom married, and James M.
On the maternal side, Mr. Neill is able to trace an ancestry almost as far back. The great-great-grandfather was Abraham Leyda, and his daughter Mary Leyda, married John Berry. She was born and reared near Pigeon Creek Church in Washington County. To Samuel Neill and wife five children were born, namely: Anna, who married W. P. McCormick, of Knox County, Ind.; Flora, who died in Oklahoma in 1902, was the wife of Ira Porter; John Christy of Canonsburg; Elizabeth, who married Charles A. Fritzie of the Washington Record, resides at Washington; and William M., who is an employe of the American Bridge Company, resides at Ambridge, Beaver County, and married Clara Pigott, of Parkersburg, W. Va.
John C. Neill spent the earlier years of his life at Humeston, Iowa, attended the schools of Wayne County, the High School, and the Humeston Normal College. Leaving Humeston in 1891 he came back to the old family seat on a visit and while at Canonsburg was offered a situation with the Canonsburg Iron and Steel Company, which he accepted and held until 1901, and during the next two years was connected with the Parkersburg Iron and Steel Company. In 1903 he returned to Canonsburg, and on Oct. 1, 1903, he opened a grocery store in the building adjoining the one he now occupies, having erected the latter in 1904 in order to accomodate his developing business, which has grown to very large proportions. In his political opinions, Mr. Neill is a Republican and is a leading factor in his party in this section, serving as a member of the Washington County Republican Executive Committee, has also been president of the borough Council and is serving as one of its most useful members at present.
In 1897, Mr. Neill was married to Miss Anna D. Fife, who was a daughter of Calvin Fife, now of Canonsburg, but formerly of Allegheny County, where Mrs. Neill was born and raised. She was a lady of many Christian virtues and possessed endearing traits. Her death occurred Aug. 12, 1908, and she is survived by three daughters: Elizabeth, Virginia and Catherine, and one son, McCormick. In his fraternal relations, Mr. Neill is identified with the following organizations at Canonsburg: Lodge No. 893, Odd Fellows; Lodge No. 846, Elks; and Lodge No. 544, Royal Arcanum.
