Surnames: Snyder, Keeler, Hallowell Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/wdB.2ACI/636.2.1 Message Board Post: There might be a connection here. If the Mary J. Snyder in the 1850 census is the relative I am looking for she married a Henry Keeler and had a son Russell Isaac Keeler in 1878 in Trenton, New Jersey. Can you give me any additional information on the rest of your Snyder kin that moved to New Jersey. This may be a cousin or other relation. Also I noticed on the 1850 Census that the Hallowell family appears on the lines just before the Snyders. Could also be a connection for you.
