Neville was a Unionist civilian from Hardy County, Virginia (now West Virginia) who died while being held prisoner in Richmond. He was identified as a "federal soldier" in Cemetery burial records.

His remains were first buried just outside of Shockoe Hill Cemetery, along with more than 600 POWs and at least a dozen other Unionist civilians. The remains were disinterred and moved to Richmond National Cemetery in 1866, where they rest today under "Unknown" markers.

A commemorative marker (shown here) honoring the POWs was placed at Shockoe Hill Cemetery in 2002 by the Military Order of the Loyal Legion (MOLLUS). His name appears as "Evil Kaughman", as it was recorded at the time of first burial. For more on the POWs and the marker, see https://soldiersofshockoehill.com.
