Kirk, I appreciate all the information and corrections, and I hope someone corrects the information that is online about the lineage from Justinian Snow, etc. I'm still curious to know whether Johnson and John Snow were the same person, and I also wonder if your correspondent in California is online. I would like to contact such a researcher who has studied the Roane Co., TN Snows and knows so much about them. I know how busy you are, so I appreciate your taking the time to write me, let alone look up all that information.

Bev, Frost & Snow Sr. was the father of Frost & Snow Jr. who died in 1852 in Surry Co., NC. The "third" Frostin Snow, who is listed as Snow Frost in the 1790 Surry census is the one with wife Ruth. We believe that he may be from Bedford/Campbell Co., VA. and a part of the Henry Snow family there. There is no proof of any of this yet, only good clues. The name Frost and the fact that they all ended up in Surry would imply some kind of familial relationship, but it is currently unknown.

Frostin Snow of Lincoln Co, KY, died in 1832 and left a Will. His wife was Ruth or Rutha or Ruthy. They had 11 or 12 children. Does anyone have their names? Bev Johnson Billings, MO

Johnson Snow is in several of Taliaferro's sketches in the book "Fisher's River (North Carolina) Scenes and Characters. His wife's name is given as Patsey (Patsy?). It does not mention his parents. That book was reprinted by Arno Press in 1977 from a copy in the University of Illinois Library. The Frost Snow in the "Fisher's River" book appears to be Frost Snow, Jr., who was born about 1756. He and his wife Elizabeth (Fortner? Faulkner?) (married about 1777) had eight children: William who married Rebecca Masters, Thomas who married Betsey Wilmoth, John who married Frances (Frankey) Easley and moved to Jackson Co., MO, James married Alley Cave and moved to Jackson Co., MO, Elizabeth (who married Stephen Wilmoth), Richard who married Sally Tucker, Mary (Polly) (who married James Norman) and Bird who married Eliza Harris. Frost & Snow, Jr. died after Feb 8. 1852 (the date of a codicil to his Will). The Will of Frost Snow, Jr. was probated in the May Term of Court 1852 in Surry Co., NC., Will Book 4, p. 325. [Note: Terms of Court are usually 3 months or 6 months, so he died before October 31, 1852.] Bev Johnson Billings, MO

Dear Kirk: Thanks so much for the information. Do you feel comfortable in stating that my Nancy Snow (b. 1810-11 NC or TN) was the daughter of John Snow b. c1774? In other words, does her age fit in? Nancy Snow married in Roane Co., TN 21 Oct 1829 Michael K. Selvidge/Selvage, son of Jeremiah Selvidge & wife Mary (Taylor?) Kelly Selvidge (stepdau. of Granbury or Greenbury Kelly) In the 1830 Roane census, they lived near Richard Snow. Also, Michael Selvidge was bondsman for John Renfro (18 Dec 1829 Roane Co.) in marriage to POLLY SNOW. I see you don't show a POLLY in the list of children and I wonder if you might know whether Eliz., Sarah, or Frances might have been named Mary or Polly, or who those other daughters married. I would suspect that Polly Snow Renfro must be some close kin to my Nancy Snow Selvidge/Selvage. Also, I saw on the Internet where Frost And Snow Sr.'s son is listed as JOHNSON, and I wonder if that person simply made a mistake or was he really named for his mother's maiden name and also called John? In other words, are John and Johnson the same person? In looking at different things on the Internet, I've put together this lineage. I would very much appreciate it if you could tell me where I'm in error or whether some of the maternal lines might be extended (Johnson, Davis, Jackson, etc.), or any websites you might refer me to.

Snow?) by LAFAYETTE, and inscribed was the date 1412, and the family in the 1980s had forgotten what the date 1412 signified to Gen. LaFayette or France. Mrs. Moore gave the ring to her brother's son, another Mr. Brown, who was the grandfather of Robert W. Brown of Athens, GA.

I am a new subscriber to the list.

She married at the >age of 26. This is really unusual for the time. Most people married >young, like at the age of 11 or 12. Life was not as romantic as we may >picture it. Here are some examples: > > Anne Hathaway's home was a 3 bedroom house with a small parlor, which >was seldom used (only for company), kitchen, and no bathroom. > > Mother and Father shared a bedroom. Anne had a queen sized bed, but >did not sleep alone. She also had 2 other sisters and they shared the bed > also with 6 servant girls. (this is before she married) They didn't >sleep like we do lengthwise but all laid on the bed crosswise. > > At least they had a bed. The other bedroom was shared by her 6 >brothers and 30 field workers. They didn't have a bed. Everyone just wrapped >up >in their blanket and slept on the floor. They had no indoor heating so >all the extra bodies kept them warm. > >They were also small people, the men only grew to be about 5'6" and >the women were 4'8". SO in their house they had 27 people living. > > Most people got married in June. Why? They took their yearly bath in > May, so they were till smelling pretty good by June, although they were >starting to smell, so the brides would carry a bouquet of flowers to >hide their b.o. > > Like I said, they took their yearly bath in May, but it was just a big > tub that they would fill with hot water. The man of the house would get >the privilege of the nice clean water. Then all the other sons and men, >then the women and finally the children. Last of all the babies. By then >the water was pretty thick. Thus, the saying, "don't throw the baby out >with the bath water," it was so dirty you could actually lose someone in it. > > I'll describe their houses a little. You've heard of thatch roofs, >well that's all they were. Thick straw, piled high, with no wood >underneath. They were the only place for the little animals to get warm. So >all the > pets; dogs, cats and other small animals, mice, rats, bugs, all lived >in the roof. When it rained it became slippery so sometimes the animals >would slip and fall off the roof. Thus the saying, "it's raining cats >and dogs." Since there was nothing to stop things from falling into the >house they would just try to clean up a lot. But this posed a real problem >in the >bedroom where bugs and other droppings from animals could really mess >up your nice clean bed, so they found if they would make beds with big >posts and hang a sheet over the top it would prevent that problem. That's >where those beautiful big 4 poster beds with canopies came from. > >When you came into the house you would notice most times that the floor >was dirt. Only the wealthy had something other than dirt, that's where >the saying "dirt poor" came from. The wealthy would have slate >floors. That was fine but in the winter they would get slippery when they >got wet. >So they started to spread thresh on the floor to help keep their footing. >As the winter wore on they would just keep adding it and adding it >until when you opened the door it would all start slipping outside.

They really felt special >when that happened and when company came over they even had a rack in >the parlor where they would bring out some bacon and hang it to show it off. > That was a sign of wealth and that a man "could really bring home the > bacon." They would cut off a little to share with guests and they >would all sit around and "chew the fat." > > If you had money your plates were made out of pewter.

In a message dated 4/1/99 3:57:49 PM Pacific Daylight Time, kmclaugh@wcnet.org writes: << Peter, Do you have Edwin Snow's William Snow Family book published in 1908? Are you aware that part of this family went to RI early? Kathleen >> Hi Kathleen . . . am not sure I replied to you. I think that I may have seen this book during a visit to Providence RI Historical Society & Library. Do you have a copy? I may try and look at it again when next I get a chance. I seem to recall that I could not find a Joseph or Samuel Snow who fit the right time periods (would have marr say 1780-90) and had children among them a Rebeckah Snow and Samuel Snow. And The father's wife could have been one of the women's names I mentioned: Margaret McCoon, Lydia Hubbard, Chloe Allen . . . so if these turn up anywhere . . . then we may be getting close.

Albert Snow born March 17 1858 Lived in Macon County Tennessee. He was the 3 son of J. M. and Elizabeth Snow. No other Snow's in the County of Macon except for Alberts family. Snow's in DeKalb area , Roane County Please check your lines. Also could be from Allen Kentucky area. Any clues, will be greatly appreciated! sshp@us127.com Sharon
