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.

In order to obtain the Death Certificates you are seeking, please write us (postal service, not e-mail) with the following information, as much as is known: name, variant spelling of name, maiden name, gender, date of birth, date of death (within 10 years if not known exactly), county or city of death, and parents' names. Even if you have the certificate volume/number, it is very helpful to include the above additional information to narrow the search among similar names. Include payment for either UNCERTIFIED (used for medical research, genealogy, etc.) or CERTIFIED copies as follows: UNCERTIFIED Death Certificate copy: Ohio Residents--send a check or money order (no cash) payable to the Ohio Historical Society for $3.18 (includes Ohio sales tax). Non-Ohio Residents--send a check or money order (no cash)payable to the Ohio Historical Society for $3.00. CERTIFIED Death Certificate copy send TWO checks or money orders (no cash): 1) One payable to the Ohio Historical Society for $3.18 (Ohio Residents) or $3.00 (non-Ohio residents). 2) Another payable to "Treasury, State of Ohio" for $7.00 for certification fee. OHS will forward this check with a copy of the certificate to the Ohio Division of Vital Statistics who will send the certified copy to you. STILLBORN: Please note that certificates showing a first name of STILLBORN or STILLBO may have been withdrawn by the Department of Health, Division of Vital Statistics, and retained by them. Please request these certificates singly with separate payment for each, as some orders may not be able to be completed by OHS staff. Orders which cannot be completed by OHS staff will be returned with payment. Send request to: Ohio Historical Society, Archives/Library, Death Certificates, 1982 Velma Avenue, Columbus, OH 43211-2497 Main Web site: http://www.ohiohistory.org/dindex/ OHIO DEATH CERTIFICATES INDEX 1913-1927, and 1933-1937 This database indexes Death Certificates of persons that died in Ohio in the above years, useful for determining date of death and certificate number. Using the index information, a researcher can later obtain a copy of the certificate itself, which holds further information.

Springfield. Among the pioneers of Clark Co., Ohio, some there are who are recognized as true representatives of that class of men to whom the county owes its present wealth and prosperity, and whose characters, in over half a century of business activity, have never been stained by one act of wrong or injustice in their transactions with their fellow- man; and in this class stands "Squire" Byrd. He was born in Bedford Co., VA, April 13, 1805, and is the son of Luke and Elizabeth (Huffman) Byrd, who came to Clark Co., Ohio, December, 1816, locating near Springfield, his father dying Aug. 31, 1823, and his mother in September, 1835. At the age of 24, Anthony was married to Jane Snodgrass, daughter of John and Jane Snodgrass, to whom were born three children--two boys and one girl--all of whom are living. In the spring of 1829, Mr. Byrd purchased a portion of the farm he now lives upon, and from time to time has added to it, until he is now the owner of 240 acres of finely improved land. On the 8th of December, 1836, his wife died, and in 1839 he was married to Maria Wallace, daughter of Jonathan and Isabella Wallace, of which union four children were born, two yet living. Mrs. Byrd died June 25, 1851, and, in October, 1854, he was married to Mary Cowan, daughter of Jane and David Cowan, who died in April, 1868, leaving him again without a helpmate to cheer and comfort him in his declining years. On the 27th of October, 1863, his son Wallace died from disease contracted in the army, whither he had gone to help preserve the Union. In 1834, Mr. Byrd was elected Justice of the Peace, and was re-elected seventeen years consecutively. Politically, an ardent Republican; he has always kept well informed upon the issues of the political parties and, when Ft. Sumter was fired upon, he remarked, "That is the beginning of the end of slavery," demonstrating that he was a man of far-seeing mind and keen political sagacity. Since 1837 he has been a consistent member of the United Presbyterian Church, and has ever been kind and charitable to the poor or afflicted, and no one was more prompt in times of sickness in giving aid to those in distress. Upon one occasion, a neighbor of his being sick with typhoid fever, every one refused to go near the house through fear of catching the dread disease, but Mr. Byrd went and sat up with the patient several nights in succession, saying, "A neighbor of mine shall never suffer alone so long as I am able to go to his aid"--words that stamp him as a true follower of Christ, who never fled from the poor or distressed. Mr. Byrd is a plain, practical man, who believes in fulfilling his promises to the letter, and his life has been strongly marked by undeviating, unswerving integrity in all its relations, being one of those rare men whose aim is to be right and do right at all times. ------------------ 19 Dec 1883 -- Abner Snodgrass married Elizabeth A.

Snodgrass, a general farmer in Harmony Township, who was engaged in a grocery business for some five years, during this period being postmaster, was born in Clark Co., Ohio, November 27, 1867, and is a son of Andrew and Eliza Jane (Foreman) Snodgrass. Samuel Snodgrass, the great-grandfather, came from Virginia to Clark County, in 1808, and was married here to Jane Steel, who was born in Kentucky. Their son, William Snodgrass, was born in Clark County, where he lived until he was forty years old, when he moved to Indiana. He married Sarah Edgar and they had four children: John, born in 1838, died aged thirteen years; Andrew, born in 1840; Nancy J., born in 1842, married David Laybourn, resides in Colorado, and they have seven children, Jennie, William, Harry, Frank, Charles, Andrew and Fannie; and Margaret, born in 1844, married Tobias Bird, resides in Colorado, and they have four children, Harry, Della, William and Fred. Andrew Snodgrass, father of Joseph F., was reared and educated in Clark County. At the outbreak of the Civil War, in 1861, he enlisted from Springfield, in the Sixteenth Ohio Battery, and served all through the dangers, hardships and privations until the close of the war. He participated in a number of important battles, including Vicksburg, Port Gibson and Champion Hill, together with numerous skirmishes and other engagements, and on one occasion on account of injuries was remanded to a hospital, in which he was compelled to remain for six weeks. He is a valued member of the Grand Army of the Republic. When his honorable discharge reached him at Columbus, in 1865, it found a soldier who had ever been at the post of duty. In 1872, Andrew Snodgrass moved with his family from Clark County to Kansas, where he conducted a stock farm of six hundred acres, for five years, after which he returned to Clark County, which has remained his home until the present. He married Eliza Jane Foreman, in 1867. She was born in Clark County and was a daughter of Harvey and Mary (Jones) Foreman. The four children born to this marriage were: Joseph Forest; Emma, born May 23, 1869, married Mathew Roy Oates, in 1887, who died in 1906; Blanche, who died in infancy; and Finley, born in 1873, in Kansas, died aged seven years. Joseph F. Snodgrass owns a one-half acre of land and has an interest in other property in Harmony Township. He was married January 18, 1898, to Agnes Ensley, who was born in 1878, in Fayette County, Ohio. Her parents, Evan and Eliza J. (Mooney) Ensley, were formerly of Fayette County, but in 1890 they moved to Clark County. Mrs. Snodgrass has one sister, Carrie P., and one brother, Herman. The former married Samuel Payne and they live at Catawba and have six children: Bessie, Glen, Paul, Robert, Helen and Thomas. Herman, born in 1880, married Blanche Fisher and they have two children, Herman and Allegra Wanetta. They reside in Harmony Township. Mr. and Mrs Snodgrass have two children, namely: Melville, who was born January 20, 1899, and Clark, who was born October 18, 1904. Mr. Snodgrass was reared in the M. P. Church. He has taken a more or less active interest in township affairs for some years. ------------------ 28 Sep 1908 -- Andy Snodgrass died 28 Sep 1908, age 67y 2m 13d, of dropsy. ------------------ 1910 Clark Co OH Census/Miracode 17-8-79: Frank E.

Soc.: Orton G. Rust 21 May 1950 Springfield, Ohio Dear Sir, I understand that you have been interested in the histories of old families of Clark Co. So I am writing for information on the Snodgrass family which has slipped from my family through a fire. In some of the files I have read of eight brothers of the Snodgrasses coming to America from Scotland after or during the religious war between Scotland and England. After coming to America they had emigrated to every state in the Union. Another was that John Snodgrass during religious war emigrated to the northern part of Ireland in County Antrim and then came to America where he raised a large family of sons. I'd like to know where they came from in Scotland. One of the boys in an older family was named Silkerk. Silkerk is the name of a town in Scotland - I think near the Dundee River. My great-grandfather was born in 1754. When he was eighteen he married. The name of wife given me from some old notes was Elizabeth Adair. They were married Nov. 22d 1772. In 1802 or 1803 he came from either Rockbridge Vir. or Penn. to Clark Co. and is supposed to go to relatives living East of Springfield and in the neighborhood of New Harmony. Who these relatives were I don't know. There seems to be a question as to the relative being a father or brother (Robert Snodgrass). He was in the Rev. I wrote to Penn for his war record and a Robert and a Samuel were in the Rev. under Capt. James Johnson for two years and the man that wrote me said there was no way to be sure that they were father and son but as Robert had some offices as a soldier and Samuel a private He suspected they were father and son?? In 1819 Samuel Snodgrass bought a farm of Andrew W. Davidson and wife Rebeccah in Ross Twp. Green Co. Ohio. One mile and a quarter from Jamestown, Ohio on Jamestown & Cedarville Rd. The Greene County Robertson History says he came to Ross in 1821. The deed for the farm says Jan 6 1819. In 1833 he sold this farm to his sons Joseph Snodgrass and John Snodgrass. His wife must have died before this transaction as no wife was given on this deed. So that doesn't prove who his wife was and I felt sure I'd get the correct name of his wife by this deed. This farm was in the Snodgrass name just one hundred years. My father M. R. Snodgrass was the last of the family to own it. If Samuel Snodgrass married Elizabeth Adair they had the following children, James, Joseph, John, Robert, Margaret, Elizabeth, Sarah, Hulda, and Uphias. James married Abby Mendenhall from N. Carolina, Joseph married Eliza Ballard, John married Jane Ballard, Robert married Pheoba Miller of South Solon, Margaret married Silas Towel of Ind. She died and her sister Elizabeth married Silas Towel. Sarah married Danny Baker of Enon Ohio. He came from New Jersey. Hulda and Uphias I don't have a clear record of. Uphias is given in some old notes as being the w/o Joseph Pratt. I remember of Joseph Pratt being an uncle by marriage to my father, because after the civil war my father wanted to go to Lebanon to study law and my grandfather thought he should stay on the farm so they could add more land to the home place. So my father wrote novels and invented the first riding cultivator and his uncle Joe Pratt and his mother's brother Uncle Joe Ballard loaned him the money to have the cultivator patiented and I have a copy of the patentee--So he went to school and became a very good criminal aty, a fine person and a wonderful father. I was the only child by first marriage. He lived to be ninty passed. I am very anxious to have correct data as I hope to write a little booklet on our family for my daughters. I'll enclose my check. I have no idea how much time or trouble this will cause you. If I have not sent you enough send me the balance of your bill. You must be a very interesting person and I think it is wonderful for you to be useful to those of us that just can't know how to go about getting this data. Thanking you very kindly, I am Suelitta Snodgrass Hart 502 N. Galloway, Xenia, Ohio I am leaving on a short vacation starting June 3rd for a week. If you don't hear from me during that week you understand. ======================= 3 Apr 1951 -- Probate index: Marie Snodgrass; admin.

Snodgrass, application #760,573; certificate #503,094. Columbiana Co., OH, 12 Nov 1889. Deposition of Mrs. M. P. Springer, age 43 years, a resident of New Lisbon, Columbiana Co., OH. I have known the applicant, A. T. Snodgrass (my brother) all my life. Before entering the service in 1861 he was an able bodied man and never sick that I can recollect. In the fall of 1862 he came home from the army, suffering from an attack of ague or chills. He was confined to bed, and had a severe chill every day for some weeks. He was attended by Docter A. G. Graham (dec'd). The Doctor would not allow him to go back when his leave expired. Since his return from Wyoming Territory in 1877 he has at intervals been a sufferer from rheumatism, confining him to the house and disqualifying him from work of any kind for days. His rheumatism was confined to his shoulders and arms and in his right leg from the hip to the knee. In regard to his sickness in 1863 he wrote home to our mother Jane K. Snodgrass regarding it and said that he had had a severe time and was so bad that Docter Todd called in Docter Frank Irish in consultation. I live in the same house with him and see him every day. In all his letters home he never complained of any sickness other than Rheumatism. M. G. Springer -------------------- Columbiana Co., OH, 12 Nov 1889. Deposition of Jane K. Snodgrass, age 81 years, a resident of New Lisbon, Columbiana Co., OH. I am the mother of the applicant A. T. Snodgrass. He never since childhood had any sickness prior to his entering the army. He came home from the army in 1862, and was confined to bed with the ague. I remember he was home several weeks. My memory is now not the best, but in all letters written home he never made any complaints of being sick except he was troubled with rheumatism. Since his return from the west, he has suffered a great deal from rheumatism in his arms and legs, so much so that he often could not go to work. My son lives with me in the same house. Jane K. Snodgrass. -------------------- Chattanooga, Dec. 10th 1863 Dear Mother, I rec'd yours of Nov 29th and acknowledging the recipt of the draft. I sent the letter by Rev. Taylor who lives near Mr. Jackson if not in the same place. I have since sent you a draft for one hundred dollars, which you could get cashed in town. It will suit to pay the 100$ you are owing somebody. This last was what I saved from my November pay. I have another lot of Photographs of Union Gen'ls which I will send to Mattie the first opportunity offering. Jennings is getting along very well - has been drinking some since he came here but strange to say has not been on a spree. He will go home I suppose with Col. Wiley, on whom he is attending. He told me he has written you a long letter and said I was well. He did not know any better at the time, but Doct. Todd did. For several days of last week I had been suffering from a severe cold in the head & breast and on Saturday night it developed itself and I never want another such a Saturday night for a long time. Sunday morning I was not quite ready for burial but was quietly taken to another portion of the town and put to bed where I remained until today. I got so tired of lying in bed that I concluded I would get up, and the place I was staying at offering no inducements to the personal comforts of a sick man I concluded to come to the office and hear I am perhaps not so sound in head or steady in hand as formerly, but able to be around. Doc'r Todd called to see me every day and was very kind supplying my wants. I do not know exactly how I can ever pay the Docter for his multiple acts of kindness, but I never forget and may yet be able to render him service some day. He says my eyes were swelled as big as his two fists--they should have been from the amount of pain across the forehead on Saturday night, but the bad symptom was the throat. I was not alarmed any until Doct. Todd called in another surgeon. Doct. Frank Irish, you probably recollect him, but I am all right now. All applications for leaves of absence must go to Washington unless on Surgeons Certificate. I will trust to luck but have given up all idea of getting home during the Hollidays. Col. Langdon the last accounts was very low and it was thought would not recover. The weather is very plesent and you can hardly realize that in a few days another year will have started into existence. This will be my third Christmas in the Army. It is a fair supposition to say that it will be my last but it is hard to tell. It has not been decided by our mess what we will have for our Christmas dinner. Nothing new as yet presents itself. I am glad to see that Hampson has got a commission. He is deserving. The Reg't is yet at Knoxville, but are probably on their return. Say to Mrs. Prouse that nothing in the world that I could do would get one step towards getting Frank his release. The poor woman don't think he is just one among 10,000 confined. Doct. Todd has sent for me to take dinner with him so should quit and go, as my appetite is as good as I never want it. Say to Mattie that if she receives an album from New York it is a New Years present from her brother. You can take that last 100$ as a New Years present and buy yourself what you want. Good bye Love to all-- Alex -------------------- 4 Jun 1898. I was never married. Have no children and no one dependent on me. Alexander T.

Snodgrass 16-F-OH HGI? ----------------------------- 1912 -- Hist. of Crawford Co., pages 1111-1112: Thomas Snodgrass, deceased, was one of the pioneer business men of Crestline, where he was engaged in the meat business for 43 years and was a representative, reputable and substantial man of this city. He was born in Washington Co., Pa., April 29, 1832, and is a son of William and Margaret (Chambers) Snodgrass. The parents of Mr. Snodgrass were also born in Washington county and were of Scotch and Irish ancestry, the Chambers family in Ireland belonging to the gentry class. The families were established in Pennsylvania prior to the Revolutionary War. In 1840, William Snodgrass with his wife and three children, Thomas, Sarah J. and Mary, started with teams attached to big wagons to make the overland journey to a new home in Jackson township, Crawford county. To Thomas, who was then eight years old, and his sisters, who were younger, the journey was a great adventure, but it was a grave matter to the father and mother. In part they realized the hardships they would probably have to face and the dangers they would encounter, but it was a long and tiresome trip. At night they camped by the road side and in the morning they plodded on, their courage keeping up until they reached the forest within which their selected home lay, when Mr. Snodgrass had to chop a road before the spot could be reached. Afterward he cut down trees and thus secured a site for the first log cabin, which served until a better one could be built, which later was supplanted by a handsome, comfortable frame one which, with barns and other farm buildings, are yet standing. Although far removed from all the pleasures and comforts of civilization, to which they had long been accustomed, the family led a happy, busy, contented life and through industry and fugality increased their possessions and at the time of death, William Snodgrass was able to leave an estate of 200 acres of improved land. They were members of the Presbyterian church. The first wife of William Snodgrass died in 1849, in the prime of life, her youngest child being only one year old at that time. His second marriage was to Rachel Warden, who, at death, left five children. Thomas Snodgrass grew to manhood in Jackson township and gave his father assistance on the home farm. He preferred an active business life rather than an agricultural one and left the farm and came to Crestline, which, at that time, was but a hamlet. Here he established his meat market and continued in the same line until the close of his life on Feb. 10, 1901, having been continuously in business since 1858. Mr. Snodgrass at times had invested in real estate and had become one of the men of ample fortune here. A Republican in his political sentiments, he voted according to his conscience and judgment and rarely was willing to consider public office for himself, although, at one time, he served as city assessor. In Jefferson township, Crawford county, Mr. Snodgrass was married to Miss Eleanor Walker, who was born in Crawford county, Sept. 8, 1830, and died at Crestline, Jan. 22, 1887. She was a daughter of Joseph and Esther (Garven) Walker, natives of Ohio, and very early settlers of the county, where they died in 1854 and 1855 respectively. A sister of Mrs. Snodgrass, now over 80 years of age, still survives and lives at Blairsville, PA. Five children were born to Thomas Snodgrass and wife, namely: Margaret A., who was born, reared and has always lived at Crestline; Josephine, who is the wife of Frank P. Drake, of Massillon, O., and has three children; Mary F. and William F., twins, the former of whom is the wife of F. D. Steffey, of Blairsville, Indiana county, PA., and the latter of whom died at Crestline, unmarried, in 1908, when aged 49 years; and one babe that died unnamed. Miss Margaret A. Snodgrass devoted herself to the care of her parents in their old age, unselfishly putting aside personal ambitions that might have interfered with the tender care she desired to give them, and finds compensation in the realization of duty faithfully performed. She is well known through Crestline and Jackson township and is much esteemed. She attends the Methodist Episcopal church at Crestline. ------------------------ ================================= ========= CIVIL WAR PENSION APPLICATION David Snodgrass, application #270,064; certificate #173,418. widow's application #439,294; certificate #306,456.

McClure now lives, just west of Bellbrook, southwest section 2, (2.6). He was a soldier in the revolutionary war; and refused to receive the pension awarded by the government, on the ground that a truly loyal, and patriotic man would not receive pay for fighting in defence of his own liberty. Robert Snodgrass settled where John Bigger now lives, west of Bellbrook, northwest section 7, (2.6). His cabin stood near the spring south of his present residence. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - page 810 (Silver Creek Twp.) James Snodgrass, farmer, was born in Virginia, in 1795, came to Ohio in 1808, and with his parents located in what was then Champaign County, now Clarke. He knew Springfield when there was but one dry goods store, owned by a Mr. Amler, a tavern owned by Griffith Foos, and the residence of a Mr. Walker, in the now populous city, which were made of logs. Mr. Snodgrass volunteered in the service of the war of 1812, served five years, was discharged at Green Bay, 13 Jan 1819. Before he enlisted, he was hauling a load of goods from Dayton to Springfield for Mr. Amler, when he met Joseph Vance, (quartermaster of General Hull's corps), who, on account of the scarcity of teams, told him that he would have to press his team into service to haul provisions for General Hull. While they were talking, his father came up and hired the team to him, acting as driver, and at his return [the son] enlisted in the war. He had previously served six months with a band of scouts against the Indians, under Captain Kiser. "Thus I got to see the elephant's tail, and wanted to see his horns," said the gentleman. He was in the third regiment under Colonel Miller. Was on the battlefield of the Thames. At the time of his discharge, he started to walk from Green Bay home, accompanied by three friends; they thought they could reach Chicago in two days, but were delayed by snow and cold weather; he froze one foot very badly and stopped with Mr. LaSales to stay over night. Mr. LaSales told him that he could get a doctor who would cure the frozen foot so that he could proceed on his journey the next day, and accordingly called on an Indian doctor, who put something resembling pounded bark and salt on the foot. This was to remain until morning, and was very painful. He put in the night very restlessly, would sing, whistle, and swear at intervals. The remedy proved a good one, and they proceeded on their journey. They traveled eight days with only about a gill of biscuit crumbs to eat. Upon arriving at Chicago, they found nothing but a log tavern and the garrison of the army. Mr. Battey living across the Chicago River from the garrison, who owned the land where the city now stands, told them he would give them an acre of land for each house they would build there. Mr. Snodgrass was accompanied by James Collins, James Steelman, and John B. Ennis. Mr. Snodgrass came to this county, whither his parents had moved during his absence, in 1819. Came through Lafayette, Indiana, then a village, through the Miami Valley, near the present site of Troy, which then was represented 11 Jun 1882 -- Jane Snodgrass d. 11 Jun 1882, age 68y 11m 10d, buried Silver Creek Cem. 20 Feb 1883 -- Isabell Snodgrass married George Knox. 19 Oct 1883 -- Joseph Snodgrass d. 19 Oct 1883, age 80y 11m 4d, buried Silver Creek Cem. 9 Mar 1887 -- Eliza Snodgrass d. 9 Mar 1887, buried Silver Creek Cemetery. 21 Sep 1899 -- Luella Snodgrass, daughter of Michael & Dicie Harness Snodgrass, married Willis DeVoe.

Kendrick and Miss Malinda Snodgrass, Sisters, Lie Dead in Same House. Xenia, Ohio, 9 Dec 1905 In the home in east Main St., where they had spent the last quarter of century together awaiting burial lie the bodies of Mrs. Julia A. Kendrick, age 76 years, and her sister, Miss Malinda Snodgrass, age 78. Miss Snodgrass died at 6:30 A.M. Wednesday morning after a few days illness from pneumonia, but her sister, who was ill of the same disease and whose condition had from the first been more serious than that of her sister, lingered until 3:00 P.M. Friday afternoon, when she passed away without knowing that her beloved sister had preceded her to the great beyond. Funeral sevices over both will be held Monday afternoon at 1:30 in the late home. The aged sisters both contracted severe colds which developed into pneumonia, while preparing last week for a dinner which they had been accustomed for years to give to relatives on Thanksgiving Day. Mrs. Kendrick became ill before Miss Snodgrass, who with loving anxiety cared for her sister as long as her strength would permit. She was up and about the house until Tuesday night. AT 6:30 A.M. Wednesday morning she died. Owing to the serious condition of Mrs. Kendrick, she was not told of her sister's death, but in her conscious moments she called continually the name of her dead relative. The time for holding funeral services for Miss Snodgrass was set for Friday afternoon, but when Mrs. Kendrick's condition became much worse, the services were postponed. Mrs. Kendrick and Miss Snodgrass had been residents of Xenia since 1849, when they came to this city with their parents. For the last 25 years they had lived together in the old homestead on Main Street. They came to this city from Bellbrook, and the only near relatives who survive them are a niece and nephew, Mrs. Thomas Stake and John Turner of Bellbrook. 25 Jul 1906 -- James A.

Church: page 14: The congregation in Kentucky entered into a league to move in a body and form a colony in this area, in pursuance of which they sent a delegation of commissioners to select a location, and view the lands where they wished to settle. The delegation consisted of sixteen or eighteen representatives of his congregation, all of whom reported favorably, and plans were formulated for the move "en-masse." The exact time this delegation visited the area was not recorded, but it is felt that it was in 1803. It is indisputable that Armstrong was present in this area at this time, for the records of the Greene County Court show that during the December term of that year, Robert Armstrong solemnized a marriage. It is recorded that during his "visit" to this area, Armstrong preached at the home of James Clancy to the families of John and Joseph McKnight; Joseph C. Vance, father of Governor Vance; his brother John Vance; Capt. Nathan Lamme; David McLane; Joseph Robinson; William Tanner; James and Jacob Snowden; three Snodgrass families, James, William, and Robert; Abraham VanEaton; and others. The foregoing were in the Sugar Creek region. - - - - - - - - - - - page 15: Armstrong's Sugar Creek charge included most of those to whom he had preached a year or two previously, Vances, Wilsons, Clancys, McKnights, Lammes, Tanners, Snodgrasses, Snowdens, VanEaton, McLane and Robinsons. 1956 -- Joseph Franklin Snodgrass, b. 1874, d. 1956, buried Silver Creek Cemetery (with wife Fannie, d. 1941). 1959 -- Frances Snodgrass, b. 1883, d. 1959, buried Silver Creek Cemetery. 12 Oct 1974 -- (unknown newspaper) Obituary Mrs. Nellie Mae Snodgrass Mrs. Nellie Mae Snodgrass, formerly of 824 Snowhill Blvd., died in the Ridgewood Nursing Home at 1:45 a.m. Saturday following several years of failing health.

James Snodgrass d. 10 Mar 1843, age 78 years, buried Sixteen Cemetery. 4 May 1843 -- WATCHMAN OF THE SOUTH: Died, at his residence in Greenville, Stark county, Ohio, on the 10th of March, 1843, Rev. James Snodgrass, in the 78th year of his age. Mr. Snodgrass was a native of Lancaster county, Pa. He was licensed to preach the gospel in 1799, by the Presbytery of Ohio. In November, 1800, he was ordained and installed by the same Presbytery, over the First Presbyterian church of Steubenville, [Fayette Co.,] Ohio. He was afterwards pastor of Island Creek church. In 1832 he removed to Greenville, Stark county, Ohio, and became the pastor of Sugar Creek and Pigeon Run churches. Sugar Creek church seeing their pastor beginning to feel the effects of declining age, called for his removal from the pastoral care of that church in 1835. This was a heavy blow to Mr. Snodgrass. On the very day he preached his farewell sermon, he was struck with the palsy. Having recovered in some good degree from this shock, he was again engaged in preaching the gospel, and labored as stated supply in Newmans Creek and Chippeway churches until near the close of 1839. He never fully recovered from the effects of the palsy, and his enunciation was much impaired by it. He had a second attack on the 27th of February, 1843, a third on the 7th of March, which soon terminated his earthly career. Mr. Snodgrass was an able preacher, and a faithful pastor, abundant in his labors of love. He was a firm friend of the standards of our Church. He attended faithfully on the judicatories of our Church, and was accurate and precise in transacting business in those bodies. His physician, to whom he opened his mind most freely, informed the writer, that from the time of the first attack, he had held himself in constant readiness to exchange worlds. He told his weeping friends that they ought to praise God that he had spared to them so long a father and a husband. He said he could freely leave his dearest friends in the hands of that Almighty Being who had been his faithful and covenant keeping God. A minister who visited him writes, "When I asked of him if he was willing to die?" he replied--"I am will, I have no desire or expectation of rising from this bed." I asked him if he felt calm and composed in mind? He replied--"I fear I am too much so. I have not action enough. I lie too easy. I have very little pain of body or mind. Great is the goodness of the Lord! If I had my own will I would rather have some severe battling with the enemy, and be done with it at once; than be languishing away so slow and easy. But the will of the Lord be done." When I inquired after his hope beyond the grave, he replied, "I have no hope but in Christ. He is all my salvation and all my desire."--Presbyterian Advocate. ---------------------------- 21 Feb 1845 -- Ann Snodgrass, wife of James, d. 21 Feb 1845, age 71 years, buried Sixteen Cemetery. 31 Oct 1849 -- Jane Snodgrass married James Noble. ---------------------------------- 1850 Stark Co OH Census Tuscarawas Twp., #64/65: J.
