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
