INTRODUCTION TO THE SNODGRASS SOURCE BOOKS The state source books were created by Charlou Dolan. She began this massive project ca. 1986, organizing and typing the accumulation of Snodgrass research when she got "boxes and boxes" of files from Scott F. Hosier (he was Editor of The MACE 1978-1986). Those files formed the nucleus of the "source books". During her tenure as Editor of The MACE, 1987-1993 and since, Charlou has been hard at it: gathering and entering into the source books Snodgrass data, making trips to courthouses and libraries across the country, collecting files & family data from past & present members of The Snodgrass Clan Society, as well as soliciting information from many other Snodgrass researchers. The source books are one of the best tools available to anyone researching Snodgrass. One for nearly every state, each is organized by county and within each county, info is arranged by date. These source books contain a wealth of Snodgrass research. Census readings - wills - deeds - misc. court records - marriages - deaths - obits - histories - Bible records - even queries found in genealogical publications ... all Snodgrass! Charlou's comments on the collected data are shown as < . > throughout. Any comments marked [ . ] or [vss -] were added by me, Violet "Suzie" Snodgrass Schoolcraft beginning in 1997, the result of my reading the source books and tracing families since I first joined The Snodgrass Clan Society in 1993. PLEASE keep in mind that the source books are meant to be a reference work - they give us an idea of what has already been found. Perhaps more importantly, they show us where to look next for what is yet to be done! REMEMBER, extractions & transcriptions, notes & comments may have errors or may be missing certain portions of the original material. ALWAYS refer to the original source material whenever possible, using the source books as a starting point to guide you in your individual research. If it is SNODGRASS we at The Snodgrass Clan Society continue to collect it! Please send items (with sources cited!) you want to share with others to: Paul D.

L.M. Crist, 1914. JAMES SNODGRASS The student interested in the history of Boone county does not have to carry his investigations far into its annals before learning that James Snodgrass has long been an active and leading representative and that his labors have proven a potent force in making this a rich farming region. Through several decades he has carried on diversified farming and stock raising, gradually improving his land, and while he has prospered in this he has also found ample opportunity to assist in the material development of the county, and his co-operation has been of value for the general good. He is one of the honored veterans of the Union army who, when the tocsin of war sounded in the nation's greatest crisis, uncomplainingly went forth to defend with his life, if need be, the honor of the old flag. His career in every respect has been one of commendation and is well worth study and emulation. Mr. Snodgrass was born January 24, 1835 in Hancock county, Indiana. He is a son of Robert and Rebecca (Gregg) Snodgrass, natives of Kentucky. The grandparents, John Snodgrass and wife, were natives of Virginia, from which state they removed to Hancock county, Indiana, as early as 1812, four years before the state was admitted into the Union and when it was still principally the home of red men. Here the elder Snodgrass entered land from the government on which he established the future home of the family. He was a man of courage and thrift and succeeded in the face of the great obstacles encountered by every frontiersman. John and Fannie (Spillman) Gregg, natives of Culpepper county, Virginia, came to Rush county, Indiana about 1814, and were thus also among the early pioneers of this state. Mr. Gregg was a soldier in the war of 1812. He finally removed to Hancock county, this state where he settled in woods and developed a farm. Here the parents of our subject were married and began life on a farm, but Robert Snodgrass was also a flour miller, and he traded extensively in land, which he bought and sold. He and his wife spent the latter parts of their lives in Clinton county. The father died August 5, 1876; the mother died in November, 1879. James Snodgrass, of this sketch, grew to manhood on the home farm, and he attended the subscription schools in Boone county, later in Mechanicsburg. He learned to read at Thorntown and after he reached man's estate he attended writing school and learned to write. He remained with his parents until the breaking out of the Civil war, enlisting on August 22, 1861, in Company K, Tenth Indiana Volunteer Infantry, and he served under General George H. Thomas in the army of the Cumberland, in Kentucky, later in the Mississippi army. He saw much hard service and proved to be an excellent soldier. Among the engagements in which he participated were those of Mill Springs, Perryville, siege of Corinth, Crab Orchard, Louisville, on the pursuit of Bragg, Tullahoma, Pigeon Mountain, Chickamauga, Tunnel Hill, Resaca, Kenesaw Mountain. At the battle of Chickamauga he was wounded below the right knee by a rifle ball on September 19, 1863, which resulted in his spending two months in a hospital in Nashville. Besides the above battles, he was in many skirmishes while with the army in Kentucky, Tennessee, Mississippi and Georgia. After his recovery from the wound he rejoined his regiment with which he remained until he was honorably discharged September 19, 1864, after which he returned home, his parents then living in Clinton county.

Snodgrass September 13th 1891 at his home in Sugar Creek Township, Clinton County, Indiana. James Snodgrass in the 86th year of his age. Deceased was born June 20th, 1806 in the State of Virginia. In 1818 he came with his father to Jefferson County Indiana, where he was married to Miss Anna Jones, January 15th, 1828. In 1831 Mr. Snodgrass moved to Decatur County, Indiana where he remained until 1847, when he came to Clinton County, settling in Sugar Creek township, where he lived until his death. In 1887 his wife, the love of his youth, the helpmate of his life, and the joy of his old age, was called to rest. This sore affliction was a terrible blow but he survived it, calmly awaiting the summons of the Maker to come also. The desceased had five children living at the time of his death; Samuel Snodgrass of Kirklin township, Susan Reed, wife of William Reed, Leonard Snodgrass of Michigan township, Jemima Gano and James Snodgrass of Sugar Creek township. In early life Mr. Snodgrass united with the Christian church, since which time he always had that blessed hope of a crown of life that fadeth not away, believing in the restitution of all things spoken by God through the mouths of his holy prophets since the world began. Thus in his death passed away an advocate of temperance and sobriety in every form, as an old pioneer, a life long democrat, a practical Christian and a respected father." ----------------------------------------- 25 Oct 1892 -- (child) Snodgrass born, s/o John Snodgrass & ___ Smith (Book H3, page 8). 7 Dec 1892 -- (child) Snodgrass born, s/o James M.

James Snodgrass ...you are advised that the schedules for Sugar Creek Township, Clinton Co., IN, as returned for the year 1860 have been examined and our report sent you under date Feb. 6 1911 has been verified, and found to be correct as given of record. An examination has also been made for Sugar Creek township, Clinton Co., IN, for the year 1850, and below is given statement showing returns of the family of James and Ann Snodgrass with which is recorded James Snodgrass. By a comparison between the returns of this family for 1850 and 1860, it would appear that James Snodgrass should have been returned for the year 1860 between his brother Joseph and his sister Jemima, and not as the youngest child of the family. This would agree with his statement to you as to his age: Sugar Creek Township, Clinton Co., IN, enumerated Oct. 11, 1850.

Snodgrass is one of the leading farmers and stock raisers of Mount Pleasant township, and is descended from Kentucky ancestry, in which state his parents, Samuel and Mary (Polly) Snodgrass, were born, the father on the 4th of October, 1802, and the mother on May 9th of the same year. Samuel Snodgrass left his native state in 1816, accompanying his parents to Preble county, Ohio, where he remained until 1835, at which date he removed to Indiana, Kosciusko county, which was his home for a short time, returning thence to Ohio, and settling in Darke county. After a residence there of a few years, he returned to Indiana, and from 1837 to 1843, resided in the county of Randolph. In the year 1847, he became a resident of Delaware county, locating near the present farm of Robert M. Snodgrass, where he purchased 91 acres of land, upon which he resided until his death, 25 Sep 1879. Samuel Snodgrass was a man of excellent parts, a most highly esteemed citizen, and for many years an able minister of the Christian Church. He was a farmer by occupation, and during a long and useful life did much, in a quiet way, for the moral and spiritual advancement of his fellow man. Robert M. Snodgrass was born 28 Aug 1838 in Randolph Co., IN, was reared to agricultural pursuits, and remained under the parental roof until attaining his majority, having in the meantime received a fair English educatioon in the common schools. By diligent application to his studies, he was enabled, at the early age of nineteen, to engage in teaching, which profession he followed successfully for a period of nine or ten years. In 1862, when the war cloud spread its dark folds over the country, he responded to the call of volunteers, and enlisted 13 Aug of that year in Co. D, 84th Indiana Infantry, for the three years service or during the war. He remained with his command until honorably discharged 24 Apr 1865, and during his service period participated in a number of battles, including Chickamauga and Kenesaw Mountain, where he was wounded. He was with Sherman in his celebrated march from Atlanta to the sea. From the effects of disability incurred while in the service, he is now remembered by his country with a pension amounting to $6 per month. At the close of the war Mr. Snodgrass returned home and engaged in farming, purchasing his present mercantile business in the town of Bethel, this county, but since taking charge of his farm, has given his entire attention to agricultural pursuits, in which his success has been most encouraging, owning at this time a finely cultivated farm and a beautiful and commodious brick residence--one of the best appointed farm dwellings of the township. Having been very fortunate in all his transactions, Mr. Snodgrass is now able to live a life of retirement, and knows hot to enjoy that quietude which only one who has successfully battled with the world for so many years can fully appreciate. He has always taken an active interest in public affairs, and for four years served the county in the responsible position of county commissioner. Mr. Snodgrass was married 24 Sep 1861 to Miss Malinda Isley, dau. of David and Isabella Isley, natives respectively of North Carolina and Indiana, and of German origin. Mrs. Snodgrass died 20 Mar 1870. She was the mother of Mary I., deceased; Thursy Ann; Robert E., deceased; Orphia and Minnie M., deceased. On 9 Apr 1874, Mr. Snodgrass was married to Mary E. Jetmore, dau. of Jacob and Martha (Branson) Jetmore, to which union the following children were born: Emma M., deceased; Marion M., Vena Pearl, Ina Florence, and Eda Ethel. The parents of Mrs. Snodgrass were born 7 Jul 1833 and 22 May 1833 respectively. Jacob Jetmore was a farmer and stock dealer, and a member of the Baptist Church. He died in the year 1875, and Martha Jetmore died in 1870. _________________________ 12 Mar 1894 -- Cora Snodgrass married John Curts (Book C10, page 533). 11 May 1894 -- Mary E.

Mr. Snodgrass was born on a farm in Mt. Pleasant township, March 19, 1853, and is a son of James P. and Rosa L. (Smith) Snodgrass, the latter of whom also was born in this county and is still living, now nearly ninety years of age, at Muncie, residing at 719 West Powers street. James P. Snodgrass, a former representative in the Indiana state Legislature from this district (1871-1873), was born in Kentucky and was about eighteen years of age when his parents, Samuel M. and Mary Snodgrass, both native Kentuckians, came with their family to Delaware county in 1847, and settled in Mt. Pleasant township. Samuel M. Snodgrass was a substantial farmer and landowner and a minister of the Christian (Disciples) church. Both he and his wife spent their last days in this county, his death occurring in September, 1879, and hers in the following May. Both were born in 1802. James P. Snodgrass took an active part in his father's farming operations when the family settled in this county and in time became a considerable landowner in Harrison township. He also studied law and became a member of the local bar. His activities in local politics made him one of the leaders of his party in this section of the state and for two terms in the early '70s he served this district in the lower House of the Indiana General Assembly. He died in 1879, at the age of forty-eight years, and, as noted above, his widow still survives, for many years a resident of Muncie. Reared on the home farm in Harrison township, Ira E. Snodgrass received his schooling in the schools of that township and remained at home until his marriage at the age of eighteen, when he began farming on his own account in that township, and was thus engaged until in 1893 when he left the farm and came to Muncie, where he since has made his home. Upon coming to Muncie Mr. Snodgrass became employed in the grocery store of George Hosler and there became thoroughly familiar with the details of the retail grocery business. In 1918 he became engaged in this business on his own account, opening a grocery store and meat market at 485 Hoyt Avenue, and has since been thus engaged, proprietor of a well appointed retail establishment there. Mr. Snodgrass is a Republican and is affiliated with the Improved Order of Red Men and with the Sons and Daughters of Liberty. Ira E. Snodgrass has been four times married. His first wife, Mary E. Reed, died leaving four children, James Emery, Frances, Ulysses D. and Arthur A. James Emery Snodgrass married Maud Seitz, who died leaving one child, Hansel. Frances Snodgrass also is married. Following the death of the mother of these children Mr. Snodgrass married Lizzie Justice, of Harrison township, and following her death he married Viola Ramer, of Muncie, who died leaving one child, a son, Oakley, also now deceased. In 1899 Mr. Snodgrass married Mrs. Rosie L. (Birch) Proctor, of the neighboring county of Blackford, and to this union one child was born, a dau., Clara Opal, wife of Robert Ingersoll, of Muncie. Mr. and Mrs Snodgrass are members of the Jackson Street Christian church. They reside at 487 Hoyt Avenue. - - - - - - - - - - pages 327-328: Alva L.

Snodgrass was born at the town of Leesburgh, Kosciusko Co., IN, 6 Mar 1836, and is the sixth son of Samuel M. and Mary (Polley) Snodgrass; parents natives of VA and OH respectively. Samuel M. Snodgrass was born about the year 1801, and for fifty years was a minister of the Christian Church. He began preaching at the age of eighteen and remained in the work until his death, 26 Sep 1881, aged 87. The subject was brought up on a farm and enjoyed but limited educational advantages, attending school but little until after reaching his majority. He then applied hiimself very diligently and in a few years obtained a fair knowledge of the common branches of learning, and some knowledge of those of a higher grade. At the age of 14 he began reading medicine in Clark Co., OH, under the instruction of his brother, Dr. B. D. Snodgrass, with whom he remained some time, beginning the practice of his profession in the year 1854. He remained in Clark Co. until the fall of 1857, at which time he moved to Indiana and located at the village of Eaton, Delaware Co., Where he resided until the fall of 1860. In the latter year he came to Grant Co. and located in the county west of Marion, where he practiced his profession until his removal to this city in 1870, where he has since resided. He entered the Physio-Medical College at Cincinnati in 1877, and graduated the following year. After graduation he lectured in the college for some time on chronic diseases, which he has made a specialty in his practice. He was made dean at the Physio-Medical College organized at Marion December, 1881, and is one of the active supporters of that society. Dr. Snodgrass has been twice married, the first time 5 Sep 1855 to Miss Sarah Antrim, of Clinton Co., OH, by whom he had six children, three of whom are living, viz.: Samuel, a physician in White Co., IN; Telitha and Emma J. Mrs. Snodgrass died 21 Nov 1869. The Doctor's second marriage took place in 1870 with Mary J. James, dau. of Hon. Henley James, of Marion; four children have been born to the marriage, viz.: Laura A., Alva C., Earl P., and Alfred C. Snodgrass. Mrs. Snodgrass is a woman of more than ordinary powers of mind, and a regular graduate of the Physio-Medical College of Cincinnati, completing the course at that institution with her husband. The Doctor is a member of the I.O.O.F., and with his wife belongs to the Christian Church of Marion. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1900 Census Center Twp., 23-24-9-77: David B.

Snodgrass Recalls Long Career As Educator At the age of 88, James P. Snodgrass of 345 S. Green St., in Brownsburg can look back on a varied career as a farmer, teacher, school administrator, county prosecutor, and bookkeeper. A useful and interesting life that was to make him one of the most outstanding men in Hendricks County began in 1878. Mr. Snodgrass was born on a farm seven miles from Frankfort. The nearest town was Boyleston on the old Michigan Road, he recalls. Later the family moved to a farm three miles east of Kirkland, and young Jim went to a one-room school house in the country. "One room and one teacher," was the way he described it. For a man who was to become one of the most prominent school administrators in Hendricks county, the farm boy got off to a poor start. He quit school for a time and became a full-time farmer for several years. "I finally finished school at a rural settlement called Tail Hold, although the post office called it Pickard," Mrs. Snodgrass explained. In those days if you could "make" a teacher's license, you could teach. He passed the test and took over a grade school in 1901 after a teacher quit in mid-year. He was persuaded to teach another year by the school superintendent. "I had no idea of becoming a teacher," Mr. Snodgrass chuckled, "and still didn't think too much of teaching after nearly two years of it." However, he was interested enough to come to Danville where he enrolled in old Central Normal College in 1903 and was graduated in 1907. Shortly after graduation the young teacher accepted a position at the little town of Hydro in the Oklahoma Territory. "I remember that the town was on the old Choctaw and Western Railroad, about 60 miles southwest of Oklahoma City," Mr. Snodgrass recalled, "While I was there the people voted on the state constitution and were admitted to the Union (Nov. 16, 1907)." Mentally alert despite the fact he is nearing ninety years of age, Mr. Snodgrass chuckled as he recalled his days in the Sooner State. "The capital wasn't in Oklahoma City when they started," he explained. "It was in some little town, and the government records were moved by stealth to Oklahoma City - then the officials just left and never came back." In 1908 Jim returned to Central Normal College and was in school until 1910. About this time, as he remembers, the Danville school superintendent and the school board asked him to become principal of the town's grade school. It was just two blocks south of the town square, where South Elementary School now stands. "We had four rooms and about 125-130 students," he continued. "I had three teachers, and I was a teaching principal." He ran the school for about two years, and then another field of service -- politics -- beckoned the talented young principal. He decided to run for county prosecutor. "I was a Democrat in that Republic hotbed," he chuckled. "The vote was two to one for the GOP -- same as now." Mr. Snodgrass had just finished a series of night courses at "CNC" and had received his law degree. He was elected in 1912 and won again in 1914. "It was a two-year office in those days," he explained, "and I remember very clearly that my first commission as prosecuting attorney was signed by Gov. Thomas R. Marshall." Marshall was later Vice President under President Woodrow Wilson in 1913. "That Marshall was really a crackerjack," Mr. Snodgrass recalls. "He was always telling funny stories -- mostly on himself." In 1916 he returned to his old job as principal of the Danville grade school. "The s school board members were all Republicans, but they took me back," he laughed. "In those days we could fight over an election, and when it was through, we were still good friends -- not like today." He continued teaching there until 1917 when he was elected county school superintendent -- a four-year office this time. In 1921 he left the political field for good and accepted the job of principal of Brownsburg High School and held that office nearly 20 years. Until 1940 there was not a boy or girl graduated from BHS who had not learned to respect the able and affable Mr. Snodgrass. "I remember that when Fred Roark was in high school, he was always fooling around with welding," the old teacher declared. "He showed so much promise that Allison Division got interested in him, and that is how he got his start." In 1940, when approaching the age of 64, he resigned his position in Brownsburg, but became a teaching principal at Brown Township Grade School in 1941. He taught the seventh and eighth grades and had a staff of three teachers. Although he had passed the compulsory retirement age, the state waived this requirement each year. Finally, he retired from teaching for good in 1948. "The superintendent up there (in Brown Township) wanted me to teach another year," he said, "but I was starting to get a little tired in the afternoons." He was then past 70 years of age. But seven score years did not worry the old teacher. He had never spent much time sitting around. He took the full-time job of bookkeeper in the Brownsburg State Bank the same year he "retired." "I left the bank in 1952 or 1953 -- I can't remember which," Mr. Snodgrass mused, "and then I retired for good." His wife and companion for many years died Aug. 12, 1955, a couple of years after he retired. "If she had lived another month, we would have been married exactly 41 years," he said. They were married in September of 1914. He fell silent after that. Perhaps he was recalling the years he had spent with his wife, who had a career in her own right. She was Nell Switzer from Seymour and had been a teacher herself for some time in her home town. After her marriage she was a substitute teacher in Brownsburg and Pittsboro for several years. She was also librarian at the Brownsburg Library for some time. "We met at Central Normal," the old man explained cheerfully. "It was one of those college romances." He didn't seem sad. Maybe he was just remembering the happy and useful life they had together. -------------------------------- 17 Dec 1973 -- The Messenger, Plainfield, IN: Missing Man Drowns in Wrecked Auto Hendricks county recorded its 25th traffic fatality of the year when the father of five children, reported missing for three days, was found at the bottom of White Lick creek lodged inside a nearly-submerged wrecked automobile. Dead is Gerald B. Snodgrass, 34, an associate of the One-Hour Cleaners in Plainfield. Sheriff's deputies said the 1972 Chevrolet must have plunged some 40 feet off the road down a steep embankment before flipping into the water north of here. Divers went into an estimated five feet of water before discovering anyone was in the auto. A crewman from the Penn Central railroad contacted the sheriff's department reporting that the back left wheel of an automobile was visible in the creek from a train trestle over county Road 625 East. The vehicle was reported at 1:42 p.m. Friday. Sheriff's department officials were not able to detect whether or not anyone was in the vehicle until the divers went into the water. Sheriff Russell Carmichael first believed the car had been stolen and stripped of parts. Deputy James Sutherlin said it is believed Snodgrass must have been driving north on the county road sometime Tuesday. The path of the car, according to the deputy, showed the vehicle left the road at a curve and traveled some 200 feet into the creek. Damage to the vehicle showed the car hit a small tree stump, debris along the bank, and finally a larger stump, forcing the vehicle to flip into the creek. Hendricks county coroner Charles Baker said the cause of death was due to drowning. Deputy sheriff Sutherlin said there was also injury to the chest caused by the steering wheel. The divers hooked a chain to the vehicle. Wrecker crews from Miller Shell station at Danville, pulled the water-soaked car straight up over the embankment. Snodgrass was then taken from the automobile. The accident scene was some five miles north of Plainfield, about two miles west of Avon, and on the south side of what is known as the 'haunted bridge", one-half mile south of U.S. 36. Deputies said Snodgrass was dressed to be outside with several shirts and layers of clothing. Christmas packages were found in the trunk of the car. The Plainfield man was reported missing when he did not arrive Wednesday to pick his wife up where she works at the Hendricks county hospital. The widow, Carolyn, survives. Funeral services were today at the Hall-Baker funeral home with burial in Maple Hill cemetery. The Rev. Bill Cox officiated at the services. - - - - - - - - - - [Dec 1973] Gerald B. Snodgrass Funeral services were conducted Monday morning in Hall-Baker Funeral Home, Plainfield, for Gerald B. Snodgrass, 34, who was killed in an automobile accident December 12, while driving a country road southwest of Avon. Born December 26, 1938, at Cartersburg, he was the son of Charles L. and Wilma Clanton Snodgrass and was a graduate of Plainfield high school. He was affiliated with the One Hour Cleaning Service at Plainfield. He was a member of the 38th Street Christian church, Plainfield Optimist Club, and Plainfield Jaycees. Survivors include the widow, Mrs. Carolyn Snodgrass, and children, Leanne, Robin Lynn, Angela Kay, Cynthia Diane, and Gerri Lou; parents, Mrs. and Mrs. Charles L.

At 10 yrs. old I went to high school in Holle. At 14 yrs. I commenced to learn the cabinet trade. I could not leave Germany until I was free from Military laws. I was then 23 yrs. old, then I went off to america. Started the 10th of May 1858 from Bremen to New York 27th of July. Had to stay here 3 or 4 days, then they put us on an emigrant train that took us over 3 days to get to Freeport Ill. Often we footed it for miles behind the train. Stayed 1 night in Freeport. Next morning we went 15 or 18 miles out in the wilds, we thought. We were 3 young fellows together. We wanted to get into the wilderness as fast as we could, as we thought we could get rich quick, but instead we had to be glad to get a place to stay and work for our board all winter. But I was lucky. I got in a good family with no children. Their name was Marsh, 3 miles from Lena, Stevenson county, Illinois. In the spring of 1859, I got work with carpenter George Ely, a fine young LDunker near charlie. I stayed here a year, then wanted to go farther into the wilderness. At that time all was wild across the Missouri river. Indians and buffaloes. One of our bosses wanted to go out west. He wanted some fellow to help him drive the oxen. Everybody went by ox team on the plains at that time. (was no automobiles yet you know). His name was Waddams. He had a frau and 3 children and cousin. Had a horse team and ox team. Started the 10th of May for the Missouri river, but when we got over into Iowa, it was not half settled yet. Every night and morning we would go hunting after we had the cattle unhitched, or fishing. We had fresh meat every day. After we passed Omaha, (it had only about 18 or 20 shanties) it was only a shopping place for Government teams and soldiers, we didn't wander so far. But we passed teams that had on their wagon covers written, "Bound for Pike's Peak" or "Bound to see the Elephant or bust". They most often did bust and I among them. I had 5 cents left when I got to Ohio in the end of the year. So we all got crazy for Pike's Peak like all of them. We struck out for the Rocky mountains. Well it was fine. I would not have missed it for anything. Had lots of fun. Every night in camp hundreds of camp-fires, singing, dancing, music, getting supper. Had lots of whiskey at that time, 25 cents a gallon. Had less drunkards than now. Saw millions of buffalo and Indians. I smoked the Pipe of Peace with them, but you have to watch them, they steal if they can. They drove our cattle off one night. Took 3 days to find them and 6 fine mules went off that night and we never found them again. The mosquitoes were so bad every night, we had to burn buffalo chips, to make a smoke around our heads so we could sleep. Don't know how the Indians can, I guess they don't feel em. But in daytime there was another kind of "skeeter", a big black fellow about an inch long that bit through shirt and coat only in daytime. The fourth of July we thought we would celebrate by buffalo hunting. We took the teams and went about 20 miles south of the Platte river about where Hastings is now. There we found buffalo by the 10s of thousands. No one would believe there were so many. We shot 3 buffalo but could only take the 4 hams of two. It made an awful load. It took us 3 days to cut it up in strips 1 inch thick and dry it in the sun, with a little salt on it. It made 12 sacks of buffalo shark, but it was good. If we got dry, we go to the sack and chew a big bite like gum. We divided it to 3 families. We passed a good many Indian villages and smoked the Pipe of Peace with them, and traded for moccasins for a cup of sugar or tobacco, and if I had of had a home I would have sent lots of things back. There were fine looking Bucks and finer looking young squaws and some of the ugliest old squaws dirtiest I ever saw. Water was scarce sometimes. Often we had to dig 10 or 12 feet in the bottom of the Platte river or some creek. Had to cross the Platte river on a ferry boat. One time the ferry rope broke and lost one of the company's wagons in 10 foot of water. Another time, one fell down a big hollow, lost everything breakable. But finally we got in the Rockys. Denver was not there, it was Sherry creek. Golden was 1 little shanty 12 ft. sq. A saddler bread shop. Then in the mountains, such roads, you never saw the like, up and down and across creeks. Came to one 5 or 6 ft. wide, the oxen would not go in, don't know why. I found out I could not make them. I took them by the horns with a rope, had somebody lick 'em and push 'em, finally got them to start (and if you were there and could have seen it roll over and over). Me and the oxen and all, went in mud and water clear under my arms. We got out alright, but left the wagon in the mud. Had to get horses to pull that out. Well, we got where the gold was, but not much there. That was the last I saw of my old friends. I stayed there until fall then went back in the states. money all gone, just enough to take me to Ohio, Dresden. Found work for 50 cents a day with Simon Barton. He moved to Indiana. I went with them and lived with them mostly until '62. When the war broke out I was working with Newt Snodgrass in Jasper Co [Newton V. Snodgrass]. I was plowing corn one morning and a young friend Ike Lamborn hollowed to me to "Come and enlist. They're making a company up at Renssalaaer, everybodys going." Like all the fellows, I tied my horse in the fence corner, jumped in his buggy at 9 oclock, went to Renssalaer, put our names down and was back by 12 oclock. When I got in the house, and told them, they all shook hands with me. Two of his brothers were already in the army. "Gif" [vss - Guilford Snodgrass] and George Snodgrass. July 31st, 1862, our company got in the 87th Indiana Volunteer Infantry. Was sworn in at Indianapolis, then was soon shipped to Louisville Kentucky. Had not been in the army long until I got sick and the regiment went off and left about a dozen sick. While I was in the hospital, the government wanted some men for marine service on boats. On January 18, 1863, I was transferred to the Mississippi Marine Brigade. That was better service than on land. I was discharged in 1865. I went back to Jasper co. to hunt up old friends, and the girl I left behind me, if she was not already married. Well, I worked around until fall and on September 14th 1865 we got "hitched" O.W. to E.J.T. I put up a little log cabin and we lived there about 15 yrs in the swamps of Indiana. (the best times I ever had). We had 5 girls and one boy. In 1880, September, we started to Kansas by covered wagon. We got here Nov. 4 Garfield's Election, to Beloit Kansas, Mitchell Co. and after 4 yrs. we caught a jayhawker. It was a female too. Had awful hard times the first and second winters but we are still alive yet, and hope to be for a long time yet. [Handwritten note: Otto Wapler died December 30, 1919, at the age of 84 years. He was Luann Belknap's great, great grandfather.] ######################################### JAY COUNTY (formed 1818 from Randolph & Delaware) ######################################### JEFFERSON COUNTY (formed 1818 from Dearborn & Clark Counties) SOURCES CEMETERY RECORDS Jefferson County, IN, Records vol. 1, Cemetery Records (DAR) yes CENSUS RECORDS 1820 - 1850 census - yes 1860 census transcription - yes 1870 census - yes (don't know if entire county was checked) 1880 census - yes (don't know if entire county was checked) 1880 soundex - yes 1900 census - yes 1910 census - yes 1920 soundex - yes HISTORY & GENEALOGY Biographies of Residents of Jefferson Co., IN (DAR) NS Family Records (DAR) NS Family Records of Jefferson Co., IN (DAR) NS Family Records #6 (DAR) NS Family Records #7 (DAR) NS LAND RECORDS Deed abstracts (from files of the Snodgrass Clan) yes Land Sales at Jeffersonville, IN - yes MISCELLANEOUS RECORDS The Jefferson County Special (The Hoosier Journal of Ancestry) yes Historical Society Collection, Jefferson Co., IN, Hist.

Snodgrass & Cordelia Broadwell, 28 Dec 1872. Their marriage took place here, in the home of my parents, Mr. & Mrs. D. P. Monroe. The latter is a sister of said Cordelia Broadwell. I have been trying to find some old timer who could give me some information pertaining to the first marriage, but have been disappointed, as she, the first wife, was but little known in this community, having come here from the south with two brothers, as refugees, but a few years before her marriage to deceased Snodgrass. They were married, at least their license was issued, 21 Feb 1966 [1866]. Her name was Louisa Anna Nichols. We know of but one probable way to secure the exact facts of this former marriage, their divorce, her second marriage and death (all of these things seem to be considered well known facts among the old timers, but aside from the marriage license, I have not been able to find an atom of proof of anything), which would be to write to Mrs. Mattie Swan, Lazier, Colo., and if she does not know, she might be able to get the facts from some of her deceased sister's children, this sister having married a brother of Louisa Anna Nichols. I was told by our clerk, Edw. M. Pernett, that the laws of this state do not require this extra information concerning a former marriage. Both licenses were issued at the same place, they (deceased and last wife) have lived together over forty years, unquestioned (and some more points too legal and bigwordy to remember) and that made it an O.K. fact that she was entitled to pension, etc. I am afraid I have not helped very much, but have done best I could. Will be glad to assist any way I can. Sincerely yours, Cordelia M. Eldridge -------------------- United States of America, Territory of Utah, County of Salt Lake.

[This birth is recorded three times: Book H2, page 2; Book H2, page 2; and Book H23, page 9.] [d. 1901; obituary says he was born 2 Dec] 1887 -- Biog. & Hist. Rec. of Kosciusko Co., IN: pages 363-365: Samuel Snodgrass, farmer; section 15, Washington Twp., was born in Plain Twp., Kosciusko Co., this State, 14 Aug 1836. When he was six months old, his father removed to Whitley Co., where he lived until 1870, when he removed to the farm where he now resides. His ancestors were of Scotch-Irish descent. The father of Mr. Snodgrass, John Snodgrass, was born in Clarke Co., OH, 22 Oct 1807, where he was reared and married. He was a farmer, and followed that occupation all his life. He first settled in Elkhart Co. for a few months, then came to Tippecanoe Twp., this county, living there a short time, thence to Plain Twp., thence to Whitley Co., in Feb 1837, where he entered a piece of land from the Government. While living in this county he rented land, but in Whitley County he commenced to make a home for himself. He still lives on that same piece of land. The mother of our subject, Ann (Cowan) Snodgrass, was also born in Clarke Co., 9 Jul 1811, where she was educated and married. She died 4 Jul 1860 and is buried in Pleasant Grove Cemetery. Samuel's education was limited to the common school of his father's district. He was married 29 Jan 1861 to Miss Mary Gray, who was born in Mifflin Co., PA, 17 Feb 1838. When she was two years old, the family removed to Ross Co., OH, where they lived nearly four years, then came to this county and settled in the woods of Tippecanoe Twp. The father built a hewed-log house, one and a half stories high, which was considered quite a palace in those days. It being the largest house in the neighborhood, it was used for a meeting-house. The family were Presbyterians, and the preachers were of that denomination. The father of Mrs. Snodgrass, John R. Gray, was born in Dauphin Co., PA, 2 Mar 1795, where he resided until he was married in 1832, and until three children were born. The family then removed to Ross Co., OH, where they lived until 1843, then came to this county, and settled upon a piece of land where the father lived until his death, which occurred 8 Feb 1877. He is buried in Pleasant Grove cemetery. Her mother, Sarah (Le Fever) Gray, was born in Lancaster Co., PA, 25 Feb 1801, where she grew to womanhood. She died 16 Feb 1850, and is also buried in Pleasant Grove cemetery. There were four children in the family of Mr. and Mrs. Gray: Le Fever, born 25 Apr 1833, lives in Pierceton; Wilson, born 23 Feb 1836, lives in Whitley Co.; Mary G., the wife of our subject; and Robert P., born 10 May 1841, lives at the old homestead on section 36, Tippecanoe Twp. Her grandfather, Robert Gray, was born in Dauphin Co., PA, 15 Aug 1757, and died in Apr 1848 on the farm where he was born, aged 91 years. Her grandmother, Mary (Rutherford) Gray, was also born in Dauphin Co., and died 16 Aug 1863, in her 92nd year. The Grays were of Scotch-Irish descent. Her maternal grandfather, Elias Le Fever, and her maternal grandmother, were born in France, and upon immigrating to this country, settled in Lancaster Co., PA. The grandfather of our subject, John Snodgrass, was born in York Co., PA, in 1764, and died in Clarke Co., OH, in 1826, aged 62 years. The grandmother, Jane (Steele) Snodgrass, was born in Allegheny Co., PA, in 1774, and died in 1859, aged 85 years. His maternal grandfather, Thomas Cowan, was born in Chester Co., PA, and died in 1845, in Elkhart Co., IN, aged about 74 years. His grandmother, Jane (Gamble) Cowan was born in Ireland. When she was three years old, her father came to America to look at the country, leaving his family in Ireland. It was about the time the war broke out, and he was not able to return until it closed. He then went home, only to find his wife dead. He took his three children and came to America, landing at Philadelphia. The grandmother Cowan died in Elkhart Co., this State. Mr. Snodgrass had six brothers and two sisters, as follows: Thomas, born 10 Mar 1838, died at Little Rock, AR, was a member of the Third Regiment, Missouri Cavalry; Jane, born 15 Jan 1840; John, born 4 Feb 1842, was a soldier, and died in the hospital at Indianapolis; William, born 1 Sep 1844; Joseph, born Oct 1846; Mary, born in Sep 1848; James M., born 28 Jun 1852; and Wilson C., born 2 Jul 1855, died 4 Jun 1886. Mr. and Mrs. Snodgrass have no children. His grandparents, Snodgrass, had nine children: Joseph, Samuel, Mary, Jane, Nancy, Sarah, John, William, and Andrew. All are deceased except the father of our subject. The paternal grandparents of Mrs. Snodgrass had fourteen children: Margaret P., born 22 Jul 1792, and died 11 Feb 18783; Sarah S., born 4 Oct 1793, died 1864; John R., born 2 Mar 1795, died 8 Feb 1877; Jane H., born 3 Jul 1796, died in 1870; Thomas M., born 17 Mar 1798; Mary R., born 17 Oct 1799, died in Jan 1804; Martha C., born 13 Dec 1801, lives in Dauphin Co., PA; William, born 17 May 1803, is a resident of this county; Eliza, born 2 Nov 1804; Samuel G., born 18 Apr 1806, died 10 Oct 1881; Joshua, born 17 Sep 1808, died in 1838, in New Orleans; Mary, born 14 Jul 1810, d. 17 Jun 1881; Ellen, born 7 Apr 1813, d. 28 Jun 1832; Esther, born 31 May 1817, died in 1842. The father of these children was a Revolutionary soldier, enlisting when 19 years of age. He was in the battle of Brandywine, and was on picket duty near New York City at the time of the big fire. He served five terms in the Pennsylvania militia, and also in New York, New Jersey, Delaware, and in his native State, including one tour at the head-waters of the Susquehanna River against the Indians and Tories. Mr. Gray was never out of his native State except when he marched against the enemies of his country. He left his father's harvest field for the tented field. He never filled a higher position than that of Ensign or Lieutenant, never having sought a higher office than the post of danger in the service of his country. He was one of the last survivors of the volunteer militia of Pennsylvania, who marched from home on the ever memorable July, 1776, to the State of New York. 23 Dec 1887 -- Elizabeth Bartholomew Snodgrass, 37, d/o Isaac Snodgrass, married Eber Swafford (Book H, page 348). 1 Nov 1891 -- Susan Snodgrass married Benjamin Warble (Book J, page 95). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1900 Census Lake Twp., 38-53-14-54: Urias C.

Ashley. - - - - - - - - - - Obituary (unknown newspaper): Wilson Samuel Snodgrass, born 2 Dec 1886, died 2 Mar 1901, aged 14y 3m. Death entered the home of Mrs. Ariel Snodgrass in this place at four o'clock Saturday morning and the soul of her youngest son, little Samuel, took its light to eternity. For several weeks previous to his death the little fellow suffered greatly. He was the victim of an incurable physical disability and since infancy he was an invalid. Considering the sad circumstances that surrounded his life and the utter absence of any hope of relief in the future, had he lived, his death was in large measure a relief, both to himself and his relatives. This consideration alleviates somewhat the sadness of the event and tends to assuage the grief of the loved ones left behind. When but two years old, Sammy fell under a wagon, the wheel of which passed over his body, injuring his spine. The injury caused spinal tuberculosis and the best medical authority pronounced the disease incurable. Local physicians and Chicago specialists done what they could to relieve the little fellow, but all to no purpose. In his misfortune, Sammy not only had the sympathy of relatives, but of the community as well. He leaves a mother, one sister, and one brother to mourn his death and cherish his memory. Besides these he leaves a large number of other relatives and friends who loved him and sympathized with him in life and who too are touched with sadness because of his death. The father died about fourteen years ago and was buried in the Pleasant Grove cemetery, south of town. The body of his unfortunate little son now sleeps by his side. The funeral services were held at the Snodgrass home, Monday at 10, a.m., conducted by Rev. O. E. Combria. 13 Apr 1905 -- Lawrence W. Snodgrass married Bertha E.

He later attended Rush Medical School in Chicago before he returned to Kosciusko County to practice medicine in the Burket and Mentone area. According to stories related by his son, D. James Snodgrass, Dr. Samuel Snodgrass kept three teams of horses at all times and wore a team out every three months and had to continually replace them. He also purchased an automobile for a time but later sold it and went back to his teams of horses. He said that when he was out all night on a house call, when he fell asleep, the horses took him home -- the automobile went in the ditch.

Group sheet from Scott Hosier showed James as son of Alexander Snodgrass & Rebecca Dever, however, the will of Rebecca in 1827 lists children as Mary, Rebecca, John, and Sarah. Land Sales in 1834 show heirs as Martha and Ann in addition to John and Sarah listed above. In 1838 Robert sold his 1/10 share as an heir of Alexander. In 1840, land sale listed heirs as Josiah, Christian, and Aaron, and Rebecca listed previously. This totals 10 children as indicated in the sale by Robert as 1/10 owner of land. Could Martha & Mary be the same person, or does James belong to a different family? [*vss - Oct 98 - found this online ...

Snodgrass, of Spencer, IN (1998)] OBITUARY OF DAVID H SNODGRASS TAKEN FROM A COPY OF THE GOSPORT REPORTER THURSDAY, MAY 26, I916 David H. Snodgrass, one of the substantial farmers of this county, died at his home farm, "Fair View," on May 17th, 1916. He was buried May 20th, 1916 at Hudson Hill Cemetery. Funeral services conducted by Rev Thom of the Methodist church of this place. His residence, which is a large and beautiful home, was not large enough to contain the great number of neighbors and friends who assembled to pay their last tribute of respect and love. Beautiful music was rendered by a quartet from the Methodist church. Quite a number of relatives and friends came from distant points. _____________ David H. Snodgrass, son of William Snodgrass and Sarah Ann Halbert Snodgrass, was born December 30th, 1852. Died May 17th, 1916. Age 63 years, 4 months and 17 days. He was born on the farm where he has lived for the last 8 years and was the fifth child of eight children born to his parents, there being 4 boys and 4 girls. Of these brothers and sisters five survive him, being John Snodgrass, George Snodgrass and Minervia Stierwalt, who live in and about Gosport, Indiana, and Nancy White of Chicago, Ill., and Belle Palmer, of Whittier, California. When his father sold the home place about 1875 and moved to Spencer, Ind., David went with the family and lived there with them until he decided to go west when he chose the State of Nebraska as his home. Here, on March 21, 1901, he was married to Bessie R. Deem and followed the business of farming and stock raising in which he was successful and in 1908 he came back to Indiana and purchased the old farm on which he was born, and erected a fine home and resided here until his death. To him were born three children: a daughter, Vyra, and two sons, William and Harold, all of whom survive the father. He was of a modest and unassuming disposition, a faithful husband, an indulgent father, a good and helpful neighbor and always interested in any movement that had for its object the betterment of the moral life of the community and lived honestly with all. He was ever anxious for the welfare of his children, patient in the trials of life and ready to accomodate and aid those who were in his circle of acquaintances, whosoever they might be. He was extremely appreciative of a favor extended to him and anxious to render return therefor. He was a converted man and a Christian and died in the faith. Blessed are the dead that die in the Lord. ___________________________________ ------------------------- 24 Dec 1916 -- Jewell E. Snodgrass, age 21, b. 29 Oct 1896, d/o James W. Snodgrass & Mattie J.

Donna gave me a printout of her gedcom which has notes saying that she copied from the "Baker family Bible" in possession of Rosalee Long, ggd of Wm. & Martha in 1977... said Bible belonged to Amanda Snodgrass Baker ...] ############################ Donna Davis (and Suzie Schoolcraft - vss) Notes on her Gedcom file 29Apr98 I sent her a copy of this and we discussed some of it .... I suggested that she just stick with John/Mary and read the VA and WV counties of Berkeley, Frederick, Washington to see a clearer picture of who John's parents probably are - which is generally said to be Wm. & Cath. PATTERSON ..... Tho' personally I stick with just Wm. and Catherine (last name unproven! for now :-) Donna IS desc of Joseph Snodgrass & Anne Hutton of Washington Co VA BUT the John/Mary - Wm/Cath. Yost - James/Jane Borsland is all wrong! (actually there WAS a John/Mary ... and perhaps she WAS Mary Miller, and perhaps they were parents of Joseph who d. 1828 Washington Co VA - that deed below DOES seem to prove this John/Mary goes with this Jos.) (this James/Jane Borsland bit was copy/pasted from Donna's gedcom - and right off the bat it is WRONG ... in fact, it was Benjamin Snodgrass, Sr. of New Britain Twp, Bucks Co PA, whose will Will Bk 4, p. 11 written 18 Dec 1772, probated 13 Oct 1778 names as his wife Jane - also names her son John BORELAND and her dau & son in law Ann and James WATSON; names his dau (by his first wife) Mary STEWART, and her daus Jean GRIER and Elinor MCCOY; names his sons Benj. & James both of Warwick Twp.; his dau.
