Age Years 48 Birth Year 1812 Birth County Antrim Birth Country Code UK Birth Country Ireland Biographical Text From http://haroldwilliamthorpe.com/irish-immigration-to-iowa-county-wisconsin/ Newlyweds Hugh and Margaret McNeill immigrated to America from County Antrim, Ireland, in the 1840s, after being disowned by both of their families. Hugh was Irish protestant, Jane Scotch Catholic; their union was deeply disapproved of by their parents. “They were banished. It was as if they had died,” says their great-grandson, Bob McNeill, who grew up in Iowa County. Hugh and Margaret bought a farm near Hollandale in 1848. In the town of Waldwick, on a road that still bears their name – McNeill Road – they built a rock farmhouse that remains standing today. Descendants went on to farm there for generations. The house, sold about ten years ago by the McNeill family, is now privately owned.
