Jeremiah Snodgrass took up his residence below Berea, where his daughter Mrs. John Colgate, now lives. He and his wife, Euphamy Clayton Snodgrass, came from Marion county in 1845, and redeemed this farm from its primitive wilderness. Here, they passed from earth - he in 1880, and she, four years later, and side by side they slumber in the Old Pleasant hill burying-ground. He was the son of Franklin and Rachel Burr Snodgrass [vss - Jeremiah is son of Francis Snodgrass (d. ca 1805 Monongalia) s/o William Snodgrass (d. 1832 Monongalia); Francis m. 1795 Rachel Smith d/o Samuel Smith & Anna; Rachel m2. 1805 Joseph Snodgrass s/o James Snodgrass & Catherine], and [vss - Jeremiah] was the father of thirteen children: B.F. [Benjamin F.] and Jeremiah [Jr.], Harrisville; Ezekiel, of Marion county; the Rev. Elisha [Elisha L.], of Auburn; Mrs. Nancy (Greenbury) Hammond, Berea; Mrs. Isabel (Thomas) Baker, of Hale, Missouri; and Mrs. Rachel Wagner, of Newberne, are all numbered with the dead. E.C. [Elijah C.], resides at Smithville; John [John C.], at Harrisville; Mrs. Sarah Colgate, at Berea; Mrs. Elizabeth (Thomas) Prather, at Mt. Zion; David L., in Marion county; and W.C., in Florida [Wesley C.] This pioneer was the grandfather of the distinguished pulpit orator, the Rev. Winfield Snodgrass, of the Methodist Episcopal conference of New Jersey, who, while on a tour in Europe, some years ago, was accorded the honor of an invitation to fill Spurgeon's pulpit. He is the son of the Rev. Elisha and Mrs. Nancy Cox Snodgrass, and near Auburn he first saw the light, on December 27, 1849. He began his ministerial career as a member of the West Virginia conference, and from here went to the Kansas conference, where he remained for some years, before going to New Jersey, where he has added new laurels to his brow. [vss - Winfield C. s/o Elisha L. Snodgrass & Mary Cox] The Rev. Hall Snodgrass [vss - W. Hall Snodgrass s/o Jeremiah], who is now serving a Baptist church in Oklahoma; and the Rev. McClellan Snodgrass [vss - Elisha McClellan Snodgrass s/o Elisha L. & Mary Cox] of New York M.E. Conference are also grandsons of this pioneer. William Snodgrass - William Snodgrass, an uncle of Jeremiah, was the first one of the name to come to Ritchie county. He was a native of Pennsylvania and a soldier of the war of 1812. In 1807, he was married to Miss Nancy King [Anne King d/o John], who passed on in 1824, from their home in Marion county [vss - Monongalia until 1842!], leaving eight children to his care. Two years later, he was again married to Miss Mary Pritchard - half sister of Peter Pritchard [vss - 12 Sep 1827 William Snodgrass m. Mary Prichard d/o Thomas], and in 1841 he came to this county, and penetrated the unbroken forest on Turtle run - a small tributary of the South fork - above Berea, and reared the first cabin on the farm that is now the home of his youngest son, T.C. Snodgrass; and here he died in 1879 [vss - Ritchie Co Death Reg. p. 33: d. 30 Apr 1878, age 95y 2m 21d], at the age of ninety-six years, and at White Oak he sleeps. The children of his first marriage were: John Wesley Snodgrass, who died in Iowa, a few years ago, at the age of ninety-one years- having been a minister of the Methodist Episcopal church for seventy- three years; Mrs. Frances (Nicholas) Baker, and Mrs. Martha (Elijah) Morgan, who sleep in Marion county; Mrs. Naoma (Davis) Meredith, late of Tyler county; Mrs. Nancy Pierce, Mrs. Comfort Ewins, and Mrs. Isabel (Jared) Hawkins, of Ohio; and Sarah, who married Solomon Hawkins and lived and died in this county. The children of the second marriage were five in number and were as follows: W.F., who rests in Kansas; B.F., in the state of Washington; Eliza, who died in infancy; Mrs. Margaret A., who married George Carder [vss - George Carter] and lives in Ohio; and T.C. Snodgrass, who lives at the old homestead. Mrs. Snodgrass died at the home of her daughter in Ohio, and there she sleeps. [vss - seems to mean Mary Prichard Snodgrass died at the home of Margaret A. Snodgrass Carter in OH, and there ARE pages supposed to be from a Carter’s Bible naming many of William’s family] The Snodgrasses are of Irish origin. Three brothers, William, James and Michael Snodgrass, came for Ireland and settled in Washington county, Pennsylvania. Michael wandered away, and was never heard from again, and William and James removed to Monongalia - now Marion county, (W.)Virginia, in 1787; and three years later James met a tragic death at the hands of the Indians, on Fishing creek in Wetzel county, while in quest of his horse that he had lost while on a buffalo chase. His remains were afterwards found and buried, but not until the flesh had been torn from the bones by the fangs of wolves. William married Miss Kathrine Yost, a German maiden, and from his sons, William, junior, Isaac and Franklin [Francis], the Ritchie county Snodgrasses are descended. [vss - William d. 1832 Monongalia Co. - his wife was Barbara; his will (Will Book 1, page 63, written 7 Oct 1831, proved May Court 1832) names Barbara, his children and 4 grandsons: Michael (will proved 3 Jul 1848 Marion), Benjamin (d. 1853 Marion & HIS death record calls him s/o William & Barbara), Nathan, William (m1. 1807 Anne King; m2. 1827 Mary Prichard), Isaac (m. 1810 Hannah Baker), Francis, dec'd, and Francis' sons: William (William B., ca 1796-1864 Marion), Jeremiah (ca 1798-1880), Lemuel (1800-1886 KS), Francis (1803-1879 Barbour Co WV), Martha Hawkins & Isabella Satterfield] Isaac was the father of the late Mrs. John Parker, of Nathan, who went West [Nathan J. m1. 1836 Matilda Dicken; m2. 1854 Rhoda Amos], and of Elias Snodgrass, who died in Doddridge county. ..... Benjamin Prather was born in Washington county, Maryland, in 1798, and there he was married in 1830 to Miss Cathrine Dick, who was born in 1800, and in the year 1845, they joined the little colony on Turtle Run, and here they remained until they were borne to the Pullman cemetery. They were the parents of James Prather, of Spruce creek; Thomas, of Slab creek; the late Jacob Prather, and Mrs. Frank Snodgrass, and Mrs. John Snodgrass. [vss - Ann V. Prather m. Benjamin F.
