SCHNEIDER / SNYDER / SNIDER (Various spellings for the name Schneider ... Sneder, Schnyder, Sneeder, Schneder, Schnader, Sneider, Snyder, Snider, Snader, & Schneider (the latter believed to be the correct orthography).

           (The above came from northern Switzerland near the Baden/Wurtemberg Germany boarder line by way of Holland, and England.  They parted from Cowes, Isle of Wight, 7 July 1729 on the ship "Allen", James Craigie ship's master.  These Schneider's

arrived in Philadelphia and took the oath of allegiance to King George II, King of England, on 15 Sept. 1729. They then made their way to Weber-thal, Lancaster Co., Pennsylvania where their friends George, Henry, & Jacob Weber (Swiss Mennonites) had settled some time earlier. (These Weber's later changed their name to Weaver)) 

           Christian Schneider obtained 138 acres on the north & south of Conestoga Creek, adjoining the land of George Weber (this land was later conveyed to him by deed by Thomas & Richard Penn.  Christian erected a cabin on the south bank of  Conestoga Creek at a spring (land owned by John Trego in 1903, in East EArl Twp., Lancaster Co., Pa.)  Christian lived here tile his death in 1793.  (Death records of Christian and Susanna are in the Zeltenreich Church Records.)  The descendants of Christian are buried in New Holland & Zeltenreich Reformed Church cemeteries. 

           John Michael, son of Christian, received a deed from the Executive Council of Pa. for 100 acres, adjoining his father's on the west, dated 4 April 1785.  John Michael also purchased 44 acres and 146 perches from Peter & Barbara Worst which laid immediately north of his 100 acre tract.  The original land purchased by Christian in 1733 passed out of the family in 1881 when Isaac Schneider, son of Christian Jr. died. 

           John Michael and his brother Christian Jr. erected a barn on the land originally held by their father in 1781.  In 1903 this barn was still standing on the land then owned by Elais Martin. 

           Jacob & Mathais patented 250 acres of land northeast of Weber-thal, Center Reformed & Lutheran Church (now St. John's) is in Weber-thal. 

           Jacob also purchased land form William Morris. 

           Many of the descendants of Jacob Schneider are buried at Center Reformed Church (St John's), they were all followers of Zwingli and in this country united themselves with the Reformed Church.

           There is currently a break in these records until the early 1800's.

It appears the John Schneider listed in Lancaster Co., Pa. in the 1820 census, migrated to Ohio in 1828 or 1829. At this time the spelling was written as 'Snider'. The Pennsylvania Military Records listed John Schneider as serving in the Revolutionary War and being shot in the head. The researcher, Howard Snider, believes this same John Schneider who was wounded was the grandfather of John Schneider/Snider who moved from Lancaster Co., Rapho Twp., Manheim (Mannheim), Pa. to Ohio. No documents have been found to prove this at this time. Questions remain ... was this John Schneider the son of Christian or Jacob ??? 

       The old John Snider farm and home is located southeast of Morges, Ohio, about ½ mile east of Morges.  There were about 260 acres and some of the old buildings were known to be standing.  Carroll Co. records at Carrollton, Ohio show George, James & Jacob Snider conveyed property to John Finefrock by quick claim deed (Lucetta's husband).  The description of the John Snider farm was SE ¼ and E ½ and SW ¼ of Sect 11, Twp 16, Range 7 in Carroll Co., Ohio.

Hi Rooters,

Looking for anyone doing research on the following Snider line.


From Genforum.com post:

Catharina Margaretha Schneider, Lancaster Co., PA Posted by: Elaine Campbell (ID *****3047) Date: February 29, 2004 at 08:08:01 

  of 2723

Catharina Margaretha Schneider m Johann Nicholaus Wild on 20 Oct 1741 at the Muddy Creek Lutheran Church, Lancaster Co.,PA. Does anyone know the names of the parents of Catharina? I would be pleased to hear from anyone researching this family. Thanks. Elaine


Jacob Snider b/unknown, married (1) unknown (2) Margaret Studebaker. Jacob immigrated to this country with his father Jacob Shnyder. Records show he served in the Pennsylvania Troops as an Ensign at Fort Norris in 1757 and resigned his commission at Fort Bedford Post and returned to Berkeley County, Virginia in 1759. The rent rolls follows a land purchase of 140 acres on Back Creek from Lord Fairfax on Feb. 17, 1773, and it is on this piece of land that the original Snider Mill was constructed on Back Creek.

Children by Unknown:

Jacob Snider b/1754 John Snider b/1755 Mary Snider b/1756

Children by Margaret Studebaker: David Snider b/1763 David Snider b/1764 Joseph Snider b/1765 Hannah Snider b/about 1768 William Snider b/unknown Elizabeth Snider b/1770 Daniel Snider b/1772 George Snider b/1775

Abraham m/(1) Sara Chidester, (2) Mary Miller and (3) Catherine Miller. A total of 14 children resulted from these marriages. One child Jacob Snider, born to Sara Chidester, married (1) Ada Butts, (2) married Margaret Inbody on May 2, 1839 in Hocking County, Ohio by J.H. Boice M.G.

I would certainly appreciate hearing from anyone doing research on this particular line of the Snider family.

Have a lot of information to share and very willing to share.
