From THE MARYLAND SEMMES AND KINDRED FAMILIES by Wright, pg 301:
"Raphael Neale, son of Anthony and Elizabeth (Roswell) Neale, was born about 1683, deposing to be aged 59 in 1742. His wife was Mary, daughter of Colonel Baker Brooke and Anne Calvert, his wife. She was unmarried at the death of her father in 1679, but received land on the north side of the Patuxent River in Calvert County. In 1716, Leonard Brooke, brother to Mary, named his brother-in-law, Raphael Neale, the executor of his estate."
(Here are named the children of Raphael and Mary (Brooke) Neale.)
"He was styled "father" in the will of his son-in-law, Bennett Hoskins, in 1734 who directed that the agreement between him and Edward Neale for making over "St. John's" and "St. John's Addition" be fulfilled.

"Raphael Neale of Charles County, son of Anthony and Elizabeth (Roswell) Neale, was doubtless named for his great-grandfather, Raphael Neale of Drury Lane, London. He was born in 1683, and died in 1743. His age is given in depositions as 49 in 1732 (Charles Co., Lib. 37, fol. 155), 59 in 1742 (ibid. Lib. 39, fol. 425, 464), and 60 in 1743 (ibid. Lib. 39, fol. 663). He married Mary daughter of Baker Brooke of St. Mary's Co., and Ann his wife daughter of Gov. Leonard Calvert (see Magazine, i, 69-70, 184). She survived him some twenty years, and died in 1763. The will of Raphael Neale of Charles County, dated 20 July 1743, was proved 10 December of the same year (Charles Co., AC no. 4, fol. 178). In it he bequeaths to John Lancaster the land he lives on for life, and after his death it is to go to the heirs of my daughter Elizabeth Lancaster; testator makes bequests to his daughters Mary Taney, Henrietta Neale, Monica Digges, and Ann Thompson: " I desire that what appears to be duo to my grand-children the Hoskinses be fully paid, including what Mary Hoskins, now Mary Boarman, hath already had" etc.; my grand-children Ann Hoskins, Mary Boarman, Raphael Taney, John and Joseph Lancaster; his wife executrix. The accounts etc. show that his wife's name was Mary. The following document from the Charles Co. Records (A. I., part 2, fol. 359) throws much light on Raphael Neale's family. 26 June, 1755, Partition of Wollaston Manor. John Lancaster, Jr., son and heir of Elizabeth Lancaster deceased, eldest daughter of Raphael Neale deceased; Thomas Taney who married Mary, a daughter of Raphael Neale; Basil Brooke who married Henrietta another daughter; Ann Thompson, widow, another daughter; Edward Digges married Monica, another daughter; Richard Bennett Boarman married Mary daughter of Bennett Hoskins and Eleanor his wife, which Eleanor was also daughter of Raphael Neale. The will of Mary (Brooke) Neale widow of Raphael is dated 29 September 1760, and was proved 24 May, 1763. She mentions her daughters Ann Thompson, Mary Taney, and Henrietta Brooke ; her grand children Eleanor Thompson, Raphael Thompson, Mary Eleanor Combs, John Francis Taney, Raphael Brooke, John Digges, and Eleanor Digges; and her sons-in-law John Lancaster, Edward Digges, Thomas Taney, and Basil Brooke."
