In the latest posting from Linda/Don.....the news report from the Republican Advocate, Batavia, Genesee county NY, dated June 1822, the second paragraph states........"In Bethany, by Henry RUMSEY, Esq., Mr. William SNELL, to Miss Joanni WATKINS." I believe this William SNELL is my g-g-g-grandfather (3 greats). The furthest I have been able to trase my SNELL lineage was my g-g-grandfather (2 greats) WILLIAM HENRY SNELL, who was born March 18, 1834 in East Elba, Genesse county NY. He married Cordillia Roxana Howe (daughter of Phineas Howe) on December 25, 1859 in East Elba, Genesse county NY. Does anyone have any information on William Snell who married Joanni Watkins. I've notice elsewhere on the Genesse web site a C.A. Snell and an Edward Snell but I don't know if these may have been parent, brothers, uncles, etc. Is there anyone on the list who know of this SNELL lineage. Any information would be appreciated.
