A Texas Historical Marker here references him as one of the cemetery's benefactors:
Located on 3 acres donated in 1883 by E.M. Curtner, N.E. Young, P.H. and N.C. Neal for a cemetery, school and church. First school (a 2-story building) was 30 yds. west of cemetery. First church was about 300 yds. south of the cemetery. About 1913 a new school was erected on original school site. In 1930 the school district consolidated with Boyd district. The structure was then used as a church until it burned, 1959.
Anneville, one mi. south, had 2 stores, a post office, gin, grist mill, and other businesses. It was probably named in honor of Mrs. Annie Davis, early settler.
The inscription on his monument is:
P.H. Neal
Jan. 23, 1851
