NEILLSVILLE PRESS (Neillsville, Clark County, Wis.) 01/31/1929 Neville, Philip
(22 Jul 1869 - 25 Jan 1929) Philip Neville, an
old resident of Clark County, Wis., died at his home on the North
Side in Neillsville, Friday morning, Jan. 25, 1929, his death being
due to apoplexy. Mr. Neville was
born near Quebec, Canada, July 22, 1869. He came with his parents,
Mr. and Mrs. Mike Neville, to Clark County when he was four years
old. He grew to manhood on the old farm in the town of Weston, and
has lived in this locality practically all his life, except some
time spent in working in Canada and the Dakotas. In early life he
worked in lumber camps and at log driving on Black River, and
engaged also in farming. Since his first stroke of apoplexy some
three years ago, he has not been able to work. He was industrious
and upright in character, cheerful and pleasant in manner and well
liked by all who knew him. He was never
married. He leaves three brothers and one sister: Mike in Alberta,
Canada; James and William Neville in Neillsville; and Mrs. John
Schmoll of Marshfield. One sister, Mrs. Robert Syth of Greenwood,
died about ten years ago. The funeral will
be held at St. Mary's Catholic Church, Wednesday morning, Jan. 30,
Rev. Fr. Peter Weber officiating. © Every submission is protected by the Digital Millennium Copyright Act
