Introduction
I started researching The Neeley's [Neely] family because they have American Indian Ancestors which I am trying to Verify, (Nealy, I found this spelling in my research papers that were passed on from another family researcher). Now I'm working on the Nicholson/White because my ancestor married a White whose mother was a Nicholson and a Nicholson married a daughter of Chief James Vann. I have just recently received copies of the Cherokees Roll with 22 Nicholson's listed from this Nicholson line.
Most of the Neeley's of various spellings also migrated from different states, my line is from Pennsylvania, North Carolina, to Indiana, Tennessee, some through Arkansas then down to Texas & Oklahoma then to California after ca. 1932 when Edward C. Neeley passed away.
There are a few people who have contributed to finding the information enclosed on this site. The information on William Neeley family has come from several sources, my cousin Chris Neeley of CA had been researching the LDS History center since 1991 and found some info. sent in by Eloyce Hubbard Kockler from Montana, she had also been in contact with David Nealy/Neeley of TX.
The rest was found by another cousin Charlene "DeTurk" Howard, daughter Nena Bernice Neeley & Lester DeTurk of CA, by going to OK after her mother died, she had to go to OK to settle a dispute with a Jim Walter over the mineral/oil rights of some land owned by Edward Charles & Alice May Neeley [Edward is the son of Jesse Powell Neeley & the brother of William Wallace Neeley who is the father of Alice] this land was willed to their heirs Francis Kenneth, Newlen, Bernice, Delbert & Estas Neeley. He was stating he couldn't find them & wanted the court to give him claim to land to get the oil out, even though he had been sending them Royalty checks since Alice died in 1957.
My Step-Dad's Line

Neeley & Susan Jane Ussery, their son

William Wallace Neeley & Jessie
Powell Neeley Which makes my dad & his siblings double cousins.
Joseph Warren Neeley & Thomas G. Neeley II [the second], information by David

William Wallace Neeley & Margaret Elizabeth White daughter of [Joshua White &
Florinda Nicholson] Retta Cunningham & Susan Morris were a great help with the

The Mississippi Neely/Neeley Clan of Jacob Neeley/Neely line.
Suzanne Neely Burden of TX, Frank Roberts of MS, Gwen Brewer of LA, Ben
Carroll of MS.
Mary Neeley & Matthew Pryor Jr. Connie Bauman, Nancy & Sunny of CA.
I also found the 2 Pigg lines on the internet & the Ussery line.
I have found most of the
spouses through my research on the Internet Mailing Lists, through RootsWeb.
I know there are various spellings for Neeley but for consistency I will keep the
spelling as my family has
know it to be.
Thanks

One must realize that back when our Ancestors were raised they didn't know how to spell [neither did the census takers] so there will be various spellings for the same surname which sometimes makes it possible to overlook a name just because it isn't spelled the same by each line. The connection is still there but a little different. I have birth, death & marriage records & each one has a different spelling.
The Neely Name - (Note: Neely is spelled many different ways; Neeley, Niely, Neelly, Neelie, Neilli, Neala, Neilly...the spelling probably depended on how the census taker thought it should be spelled).
