It is presumed that Adam Neff is buried in Sandusky County, Ohio since he is listed in the 1830 and 1840 Census living in Sandusky County. It is possible that he is buried in Hill Cemetery in Sandusky County since his wife is buried there.

Hill Cemetery was the first cemetery in Ballville Township. On April 23, 1842 Jacob and Catherine King sold 1 acre of ground to the elders of German Reformed and Lutheran Churches which included a burying ground already situated on the King farm. The farm was purchased by the King family in 1832 from the Frary family.
