      Notes for Jeremiah Jack Snider:

      According to George Snider's will, Book, 1, pg. 45 on file at the Monongalia County Courthouse, Morgantown, WV, George left his property to his son, Jeremiah J. Snider. Jeremiah and his wife, Anna, raised their children in the log cabin that

      George had built on this property. Around 1834-35, Jeremiah decided to build a new brick house. The bricks for this house were made a few hundred yards from the house in the bottomland beside Dunkard Creek. It was one of three houses built by

      B. Mahanna who, as was the custom of the time, signed his name on the chimney. The house was still standing in May, 2000.

      Jeremiah J. Snider was a blacksmith and had a large work shop in which he did all kinds of repair work, shoeing horses and making wagons. He was also a drover, driving cattle to the larger markets in Pittsburgh and Baltimore, often as many a

      500 head at one time.

      About 1835, when Jeremiah J. Snider started building his new home, he drove his usual herd of cattle to the market. He sold them to some men who persuaded him to wait for his money until he brought his next herd. On returning with the next

      herd, the men were not to be found, and he lost the money from both herds. Being in debt from building the house, and then the loss of the money from the cattle, Jeremiah Jack sold his property to Dissaway South on 23 of June, 1843 for $3387.00

      (This amount is recorded in the Deed on file at the courthouse, dated April, 1844) and moved west to what is now Iowa.

      Jeremiah and Anna were 57 and 53 years of age when they made the decision to relocate to Iowa. They went overland by trail to Wheeling, WV; then by steamboats down the Ohio River and up the Mississippi to Keokuk, IA. From Keokuk they traveled
      overland to English River Township, Washington Co., IA. He patented 120 acres of land in what is now Washington, Co., IA. (This patent is signed by President James Polk and James Knox, Secry.)

      Their children, and their approximate ages, coming with them were:

      1)George, age 33, and his wife Matilda Yost Snider, and their children, Abraham, 9; Catherine, 7; Ruie, 5; Franklin, 3; Ary, an infant.

      2) Abraham, age 30, his wife Mary Bower and their children, Lucretia, 5, and Elmer 3. After Sarah (b. Apr. 1843) died, the family returned to WV. Sarah was the first Snider to be buried in the Snider Cemetery.

      3) Casander, age 24, her son Joseph Warren, age 5; (who lived with his grandparents) and her husband Clark Lemley

      4) Jeremiah "Jerry" age 21, and his wife Frances "Fanny" Minor and their infant son, Jacob Nelson Snider

      5) Jacob Rich, age 19

      6) Corbly, age 18

      7) Samuel Lemley, age16

      8) Elizabeth, age 14

      9) William Willfoam, age 12

      Remaining in WV were Catherine, daughter of Jeremiah's by his first wife, Sarah, and Jeremiah and Anna's children John and Michael. Rauleigh died in 1841, before they relocated to Iowa.

      Jeremiah built a log cabin on his property, and when his granddaughter Sarah, daughter of Abraham, died, he donated some land for the cemetery. Jeremiah, his wife, Anna Rich Snider, his children: 1)George with his wife Matilda, 2)Jeremiah"Jerry" with his wife Frances Minor, 3)Casander and her first husband Clark Lemley, 4)Jacob Rich and his wife Mariah Thompson aunt of Serena Thompson, 5)Corbly and his wife Louisa Jane Simonton, 6)Elizabeth and her husband George Figgins,

      7)William Willfoam and his wife Martha Gwin, along with many grandchildren and great grandchildren are buried in this cemetery. With the help of his sons, he built a chapel on the land adjoining the cemetery. The chapel was relocated to Kalona,

      IA. In May, 2000, many of the tombstones could still be found in this cemetery, although, with age, many of them have fallen down. \

      Sometime after his death, his log cabin house was removed to the farm of his grandson, Jay Figgins. In 1977 Jay donated the log cabin to the Kalona Historical Society, and the Society moved the house to the Kalona Historical Village, where
