Lee Neal stated in the 'History of NW Arkansas,1884,Goodspeed; "His great-grandparents (Younger Neal Sr) were French and left their native land on account of the religous intolerance there.( Only the one great-grandparent could have come from France as Younger Neal's wife was Sarah Petty). the daughter of James and Martha Petty.

Young'r Neel and others.
Younger evidently supplied some supplies to the colonial troops. In DAR #217654 application it states : (BOOK-IX-4-3, "An account of certificates delivered into the treasurer's office exchanged pursuant to act of the assembly passed in Dec.1789. To whom originally issued delivered into the comptroller's office by Jn. Armstrong by Mebane andNichols...No. 5462..To whom granted : Younger Neal...Date Oct. 1783..Sum:13:10."
There is an inventory of the estate of Younger Neal in The Chatham County, N.C. Wills, tec. 1782-1794 -tract of land 230 acres and one of 100 acres. Among the purchasers were Sarah Neal and Stephen Neal. In Chatham County, N.C.Court Minutes, 1781-1785, Vol.2 Page 86 A., Administration of the estate of Younger Neill.. Granted to Sarah Neill.She giving James Stewart Sr., and James Stewart Jr., Security upon there turned an inventory and sale granted. And on Page 96 B., Account Salesof the estate Younger Neill and John Strawan returned into court.
Book K , page 29,1797: gives William Neale , James Neale, Younger Neale, and William Neale as guardians for Thrasley, Stephen, and Elizabeth Neale, heirs of Younger Neale,dec'd. (Please note the variety of ways that Neal was spelled in the various records.)
Sarah Neil in November 1791 is listed in the Chatham County, N.C.Court Minuets 1790-1792, page 57, is listed a deed from James Stewart to Sarah Neil proved by Phillip Meroney. In Chatham County, Book N, page164: 1803 , gives William Neil, James Neil and Emsley George as heirs at law of the late Sarah Neil in a deed of land to Wm. Headen. So Sarah died before 1803.
