• Notes

  Married: "Jacob Snyder II - from other Snyder Tree" ID: I035 Name: Jacob SNYDER II Sex: M Birth: 1753 in Shohharie County, NY Death: 1791 in Green Ridge, Greenfield TWP, Lackawanna .Co. Penn Note: This Jacob Snyder served in the American Revolution and was supposed to have been in the Battle of Yorktown and witnessed the surrender of Lord Cornwallis to George Washington on Oct 19, 1781. He was supposed to have enlisted in the NY Militia from Pawling, New York. He and his friend William Niver served in the same company and were at Yorktown. The Nivers and Snyders were close and the families intermarried. Niver's daughter Rebecca married Snyder's son, known as Jacob Snyder Junior. I have a pair of silver plated brass shoe buckles that my Dad, William B. Snyder said belonged to Jacob Snyder and were worn at the surrender of Cornwallis at Yorktown. There is no way to prove this of course but it has been part of family lore for many years. I know that the buckles were made during this period in our history and are no doubt authentic . Jacob Snyder was listed in the 1790 Census in Columbia County, NY. There were: 1 free white male of 16 years and upward, including heads of families; 4 free white males under 16; 5 free white females, including heads of families. According to an article about the 50th wedding aniversary of Jacob B.Snyder (Uncle Jake), quotes the following : " Uncle Jake comes from old Revolutionary stock and is one of the few men living today who has heard the story of Saratoga, Valley Forge, and Yorktown recounted by a participant in those and the intermrdiary events, his grandfathers both having served in the Contental Army throughout the whole conflict. " This newspaper article says that he is "buried 75 feet north of Jermyn breaker in Green Ridge where an old cemetary was located in the old days." I asume this is someplace in Pennsylvania. Another unrelated newspaper article refers to the death of Mrs Betsey Snyder (?) of Tompkinsville, PA. Feb 6, 1915, said she was formerly from "Jermyn". It must be a town no longer on the map. Further information from the Lacakawanna Historical Society shows that the grave site was in Scranton. Jermyn's Centennial Braker was a mine shaft and tipple locatged in the Green Ridge area of Scranton. The old grave yard where Jacob Snyder is supposed to be interred was located at Glen and Fifth streets as late as 1877. The grave yard is no longer there. The people at the Lackawanna Historical Society do not what happened to the graves but they will let me know if they find out anything.
