      20. MARY5 RUSSELL (ABIGAIL4 WHITING, JOHN3, WILLIAM2, JOHN1)51 was born 1707 in Branford, CT, and died Aft. 1748 in Prob Branford, CT. She married (1) BENJAMIN FENN 5 Apr 1727 in Prob Branford, CT. He was born 1706 in Milford, CT, and died 3 Jan 1731/32. She married (2) ARCHIBALD MCNEIL52 Abt. 1736 in Prob Branford, CT. He was born 1708 in Branford, CT, and died 1752.

      Notes for ARCHIBALD MCNEIL:
      Narrative taken from "New England Families Genealogical and Memorial: Volume IV." (pg 1736)

      Archibald McNeil, founder of the Connecticut line, was of Branford, where in 1735 he purchased lands. Subsequently he was a prominent citizen of New Haven, was assessor in 1740 and surveyor of highways in 1746, and was conspicuous in real estate transactions. A circumstance of particular interest is his participation, as one of the "brothers" in founding the first Masonic lodge in Connecticut (now known as Hiram Lodge, No. 1), at a meeting "held at Jehiel Tuttle's in New Haven on the festival of St. John the Evangelist, 1750". This was only seventeen years after the first institution of Masonry in the American colonies (which occurred at Boston, July 3, 1733).

      Archibald McNeil was successfully engaged in the trade with the West Indies, in partnership with Samuel Cook (who was named as executor of his will), and was owner and supercargo of the ship "Peggy and Molly". He died in the island of Jamaica in the latter part of 1752 (see "Connecticut Colonial Records", vol. X, p. 577), and his will was probated in July, 1753, by his widow, who was placed under bond of three thousand pounds sterling, indicative of a very considerable estate for those times.

      George died at Canaan, N. Y., March 20, 1784. Phebe
      died at Canaan, April 17, 1791. She was the adopted
      daughter of William Bradford Whiting and Amy, his wife,
      and at the age of nine years went with the Whitings to
      Canaan; where at nineteen years of age she married George
      Hinsdale. Both are buried at Canaan, N. Y.
