bullet  Research Notes:

This person Sarah A Dinwiddie may be related to William burial was in Greenhalgh Cemetery, Cooper County, MO:

Alexander H.; born 12 Jul 1826 in Kentucky; died 02 Jul 1902; son of James and Nancy A. née Henderson Greenhalgh; husband of Sarah A. née Dinwiddie Greenhalgh
Nancy A. née Henderson; wife of James Greenhalgh; died 08 Jul 1874; aged 76 years, 9 months, 21 days; born 1798; daughter of Alexander and Sarah A. née Dinwiddie Henderson
ALEXANDER H. AND JOHN GREENHALGE, farmers and stock raisers and dealers. These gentlemen, who conduct a large farming business in this county, and have also important farming and stock interests elsewhere, are the only two surviving members of a family of five brothers and sisters born to James and Nancy A. Greenhalge, for many years worthy and highly respected residents of Cooper county, but now deceased. James Greenhalge was a native of England, born in Lancastershire, August 6, 1797, but when he was four years of age his parents immigrated to this country, landing at Baltimore and proceeding thence to Garrard county, Kentucky, where they settled and where the son was reared. Being of a quick, active mind and ambitious to advance himself in the world, young James Greenhalge applied his attention to books at an early age and studied with great assiduity, thus acquiring what was justly considered a superior education, taking the time and his opportunities into account. On attaining his majority he came to Missouri, and taught school in St. Charles county for some time. From there he went to St. Louis, and was connected with the police department of that city. After this he returned to Kentucky, where he remained until his removal to this county in 1836. In the meantime, however, in 1825, he was married in Kentucky, his wife being a daughter of Alexander and Sarah A. (Dinwiddie) Henderson, of that state. Settled in this county he became a large farmer, which occupation he followed until his death December 9, 1862. His wife followed him in death July 18, 1874. Of their children Eliza J., wife of John Crawford, died in 1855, leaving a son Henry, now a resident of this county; Amanda died in 1852 and Sarah A. died early in life. Alexander H. and John were born respectively July 12, 1826, and March 14, 1828. From early life they have been constant and equal partners in then farming and other interests. Their farm here contains an even section of land, and this is devoted to grain and stock raising, which they carry on a somewhat extensive scale. In the state of Nebraska they own a large tract of land, where they have a cattle ranch. Alexander H. is now in that state and has charge of their cattle interests, while John remains here and supervises their Missouri affairs. Besides this John looks after important landed interests in Bates county. Both are men of great enterprise and business ability, and most excellent and worthy citizens.

He then taught school for several years including the 1898-99 and 1899-1909 terms at New Lebanon. Dr. A. E. Monroe was practicing medicine at New Lebanon then and former students of McNeil recall that he spent much of his free time with Dr. Monroe. How much that association influenced McNeil to go to the medical school at St. Louis University, from which he graduated in 1905, is not known. Dr. McNeil practiced medicine in Sedalia until his death in 1944; ironically Dr. Monroe was in attendance upon Dr. McNeil during his last minutes of life.]
