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.
