General Notes: Husband - William Snyder


He was not sent to school during his boyhood and had no advantages of education to help him in his battle with life. He lived at home, working on the farm, and for three years was engaged in pine woods in Pennsylvania. In 1863 he enlisted in Company M, 14th Regiment, Pennsylvania Volunteer Cavalry, was sent to Allegheny City to be fitted out, and from there on to Martinsburg to join the regiment. They were with the 6th Army Corps under General Sheridan. He served until the fall of 1865, taking part in the battles of Winchester, Bunker Hill (Va.), Fisher's Hill, Martinsburg, Front Royal, Newmarket, Ashby Gap, Middleton, and various skirmishes. Since the year of his marriage, 1883, Mr. Snyder owned and lived upon a place of sixty-six acres, the old Snyder homestead in Kittanning township, and was successfully engaged in general farming. He was a stanch Republican in politics. His religious connection was with the Lutheran Church.
