Michael Neff, son of Joh. George Neff and Anna Elizabeth Stupp was born 15 May 1756 Heidelberg Twp. Lancaster County PA. He served as a Private 6th Class in Capt. Duck's 1st. Co. 3rd Batt. Lancaster County Militia during the American Revolution. He moved to Wythe County VA after the Revolution. Children were Catharina, Michael Jr., George, Elizabeth, Mary, Eva, Leonard, John Nave, Christina, Peter and Abraham.

Michael's stone gives date of death 15 May 1756, age 69 years, 8 months, 7 days. Calculation from known date of birth based on 69 years, 8 months, 7 days would give a date of death as 22 Jan 1825. The bronze plaque placed on his grave by DAR shows incorrect dates.
