Posted on: Orange Co. Va Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Va/Orange/10577 Surname: Snell, Mansfield ------------------------- This is really a shot in the dark! My ancestor Rosseau S. Snell may be the child of Joseph Snell and Elizabeth Clark Mansfield. On Ancestry.com was listed Rawser Spicer Snell as child of Joseph (born Orange County, VA) and Elizabeth Clark Mansfield Snell. I wonder if Rawser is a misspelling or pronunciation of Rosseau, due to different accents. R. S. Snell was born Feb. 07, 1810 in VA and died May 12, 1867 in La Grange, Fayette Co., TX. He married first Louisa M. Robertson 1833 in Nashville, TN and then Leticia Lucas in 1850 in Nashville.
