Notes: Jacob Snyder and his wife Magdelin farmed in the Mount Bethel area of Northampton Pa. They had several children of whom, Martin, Peter, Christian Elias and Baltus sided with the British at the time of the War of Independence. All brothers settled in New Brunswick in 1783. Martin moved to York, Ontario in 1810 and farmed there. The rest of the family remained in New Brunswick. My uncle, H. Elgin Snider, collaborated with Alice and Stanley Cox, Utah, members of the LDS, on an extensive genealogy of this family.
