Posted on: Caroline Co. Va Query Forum Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Va/Caroline?read=1467 Surname: Snead ------------------------- I am searching for the parent of John Snead/Sneed who was born 6-1796 in VA--probably in Caroline, Amherst or Lee Co. Family stories say he is related to the Rose family of the Tuckyhoe Band of the Cherokee. Family traditions could prove a connection to the Cherokee since healing practices and medical herbs were used by my family as late as the 1970's. John lived in Pulaski Co., KY and first records show his marriage to Mary-Polly (Hargrove) Walters in 1816. The marriage bond was placed by himself and John Wilson. John Wilson was married to Elizabeth Snead/Sneed. I believe Elizabeth was either a sister or an Aunt to John Snead. There was, also, a Charles Snead in Pulaski Co., KY--but I can find no connection to him. I would greatly appreciate any help that anyone could provide regarding John Snead and I sincerely thank you!
