Hansel E Snively, b.1894 & Flossie Opal Young Guice, b.abt1894, lived Vermillion Co., IL

margerice1 — 2011-05-30 04:59:46Z

I have an original postcard photo of Hansel and Flossie Snively, parents with newborn baby Maxine, taken in 1914, which I’d like to get back to descendants or family members. Parents look to be about 19-20 years old.

I found Hansel E. and Flossie Snively in the 1920 census for Vermillion Co., IL, showing they were parents of Dorothy J., age 4 (and no Maxine); and in 1930 census, they had Dorothy, age 14, and Robert E., 9. Ancestry Public Member Tree shows Maxine Opal Snively, born 11 July 1914, died 11 July 1916, daughter of Hansel Earl Snively and Flossie Opal Young Guice.

Get back to me at margerice@prodigy.net if you are related to this Snively family.

I just found this again. I sent you another message.

Re: Amy Wilkinson

GeorgieKnoles57 — 2010-05-06 22:48:41Z

I only have what is in the book on Snivleys by Washurn. I sent letters out and was unable to find a reservation in that area. I would like to see if anyone else has something more on her. All records I do find on Amy has her born after she was married.

Re: Amy Wilkinson

jnjmetcalf — 2010-05-06 19:19:36Z

I just spent a week in Salt Lake City at the Genealogy Conferance. This was my 5th trip to Salt Lake City doing research. While there I spent quite a bit of time looking for information on Amy Wilkerson and Indian records. I found nothing on Amy Wilkerson. I found an Indian School at Carlisle, Penn., but it was established after the time frame where Amy could have been there. Does anyone know where this Indian girl story came from? I corresponded with Elizabeth Washurn before she put her book together. I did not know she was going to use any of the information in the book or I would have given her more Snively information.

Re: Amy Wilkinson

GeorgieKnoles57 — 2010-02-26 01:17:08Z

Did you find any more info on Amy? I have looked for several years and can find no record of her before she married

The book states she was Indian I am unable to locate any record of her. Would even like a direction to look.

Hi Deborah,
Where does your Margaret live? What years? To whom is she related? Whom did she marry? What town, county, state does she live in? This kind of information will help others on the Snively list help you find your Margaret. Ann

It is wonderful to make your connection. Yes, it appears we are in the same line. I would be glad to share what information I have. Please, email me at m_snively@hotmail.com.

Thank you,

Madeline

Re: Snively

brownala — 2009-08-21 05:34:37Z

This is my first venture into a forum like this. I am responding to Madeline Snively's post. My great grandfather was George Hibbert Snively, born in La Paz, Indiana in 1890. I found your post while trying to find information on his parents. I do not know if they were John and Malissa, but the information on the other post listing that he married "Ethel Cha" and named his "7 children" matches my family for the most part. George H. married my grandmother, Ethel Charlotte Lindberg, in 1910 in Wisconsin. George A was my father, and my aunties and uncles were John, Donald "Bud", Bernard "Skeez", Garth, Ethel Irene "Rene", Bertha, as well as the youngest, Jesse and Rodger. They have all passed on except for Jess and Bert, and my visit with Jess this evening is what got me started on this research. I don't know if this is the kind of information you are looking for, but hopefully we can exchange some information.

Thank you, Linda Snively Brown.

Re: Harvey and Vida Sniveley, Ontario

canam47 — 2008-08-24 11:57:16Z

Thank you; I look forward to your information.

If Mary Elizabeth Neil[d] married a Snively, it would be an additional marriage for her, as she certainly married Robert J Johnston about 1854 in Ontario. However, she was also 18 years younger than her, so a previous marriage is certainly possible.

You may contact me as well at comstone[at]gmail[dot]com

Re: Harvey and Vida Sniveley, Ontario

joshuapurdy1 — 2008-08-24 07:51:38Z

I have a little information on this family I have to sort through.
It may not be too much.

In the information I have it seems that Vida's mother (Mary Elizabeth Johnston nee Neil[d]) married a Snively. Possibly Harvey's Father.

When I have a look through I'll post what I found.

Re: Harvey and Vida Sniveley, Ontario

canam47 — 2008-05-23 12:45:03Z

Follow up on this family. They had two children -- Vaughn and Clema. Vaughn married a June ___ and had a son Vaughn Johnstson Snively (1923-1988). Clema married a Lesington Boley, and I have no other information regarding them.

Again, any information on these families and their children is appreciated.

Re: Book Snively-Snavely: ....SE Penn. George/Barbara

scotty161 — 2008-01-20 15:34:38Z

My husband is descended from David Snavely, Sr. who was the sixth child of Johann and Elizabeth. I have been to the cemetary. I also have a copy of Chapter 19:Descendants of Johann Schnebeli of Schaefferstown,from the book. However, none of David's family are listed, probably because they moved to Oceola, Crawford County, Ohio. David married 1st Catherine Dohner and had 9 children, 2nd Mary Mollenkopf and had 8 children. We live in Crawford County and know several of the descendants.

Re: Seeking Whitmer SNIVELY, Assistant Surgeon, 208th Regiment, PVI

bobsnavely — 2007-01-15 14:46:32Z

Chapter 6 in the book, Snively, Snavely the Swiss Ancestors and American Descendants of Johan Jacob Schnebele is all about this family. It has his ancestors, but none of his descendants. It says he was born in 1842 and married Jane McC. Morrison. Died bef. 1883 and that he was a physician in Pittsburgh, Pa. It has all of his siblings and some of their descendants as well. He is on page 171. This book is out of print, but you can go to a library and they may be able to get it for you. Also the Mennonite Historical Society in Lancaster, Pa. has 2 of them.

Snively Family of Clarion County, PA

SallyFellows — 2005-12-11 23:58:23Z

I am looking for any information on the family of Jacob Snively. He born in Germany in 1792 and was married to Catherine Weber. Their sons were Frederic, Jacob and John. In 1850, they settled in Elk Twp. My family descends from Frederic whose children Emmanuel, Uriah and Mary ended up in Salem Township.

I have heard about a book called "Walking Among Our Ancestors, Cemetery Inscriptions of Clarion County, Ashland Township." Some Snivelys are buried there. Does anyone know of a library with a copy. The LDS library in Salt Lake has a copy but you can only see it there.

Thanks,

Dear Bob,

Thank you for your kind offer. I am looking for Jacob Snively and Catherine's son Frederick. In 1850 he is living next door to his brother Jacob and his mother in Elk Twp, Clarion County. His daughter, Mary, was my grandfather's mother. She married James Stewart, had 3 children and I believe died while giving birth to my uncle Charles. She died in Butler County but I suspect she is bured in Clarion County where most of her family lived. I would like to find out where she is buried. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Religion of PA Snivelys

SallyFellows — 2005-12-11 23:58:23Z

Does anyone know what the religion was of the Snively family living in Pennsylvania? I know they were originally from Germany but that doesn't always mean they were Lutheran or Roman Catholic.

Thank you again for all your wonderful help and advice.
