    Joseph and Ann were cousins. He settled in Prince William Co, VA about 1745 where that county on 27 Nov 1752 and again on 25 Oct 1753 granted him a license 'to keep ordinary at his house.' Since his house was located "on the branches of Cedar Run at the throroughfair of the Rapahannock Mountain," he was a neighbor of his brother Capt George Neaville, who, also was an ordinary keeper. His son, George Neaville, Jr., succeeded him in the operation of the ordinary in 1766. Another son, Joseph Neavill, became a general in the Revolutionary War, and a third son, John, served in that war as a colonel.
