When creating dynamic TextViews assign a reference to the unique TextView as a tag using setTag to each of them. 

TextView uniqueTextView = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.unique_id);
TextView neighbourView = new TextView();
neighbourView.setTag(uniqueTextView);

You can later get the reference back using getTag

public void onTextViewClick(TextView view) {
    TextView uniqueTextView = (TextView)view.getTag();
    String text = uniqueTextView.getText().toString();    
}
