Obit for Seth Snyder >From the Stoughton Courier Hub P45581 Thursday, April 2, 1931 Page 1 Seth Snyder, 70, Dies Following Long Illness Was Waterworks Superintendent for Almost 35 years Seth Snyder, 70, died at the community hospital this morning, following an illness of several weeks duration. Mr. Snyder had been in poor health since the death of his wife some months ago. >From the standpoint of length of service to the city, Mr. Snyder was the dean of city employees. Appointed as superintendent of the city waterworks department in 1897, Mr. Snyder would have completed 34 years in that position on the 14th day of this month. Previous to his appointment as superintendent he had served in other capacities. Although one of the oldest superintendents in the state, Mr. Snyder was continually complimented by officers in other cities as being one of the most modern officials because of his keeping in touch with all progress made in his line of work. Under his control the city waterworks has grown from a small struggling unit to an efficiently managed organization which has shown increasing profits through the past years. Mayor Pays Tribute When hearing of Mr. Snyder's death early today, Mayor A.E. Skinner said, "In the death of Mr. Snyder the city loses a most faithful worker, a good citizen and a fine friend.. His position as superintendent can be filled by another man, but no one can take "Seth's place in the hearts of his host of friends." Old Resident of Stoughton Records show that Mr. Snyder's parents came to Stoughton from Augusburg, New York. Mr. Snyder was born in Stoughton on May 13 (could be 15) 1861, thus he would have celebrated his 70th birthday next month. He has spent practically his entire life in this community. Surviving him are one brother, Gustave Snyder and one daughter, Frances. Funeral services for Mr. Snyder will be held Monday afternoon at 1:30 from the home and at 2 o'clock from the First M.E. Church. The Rev. W. Harold Sloane will officiate and burial will be in Riverside.

Surnames: BUNN, GRISWOLD, STREETON Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/WFC.2ACI/3128.2.1 Message Board Post: Deb; You were right on about son LeRoy Bunn. Here is his updated info: LeRoy Bunn was born in 1843 in Dix, Schuyler (which was Chemung - some say Oneida) County, New York and died in 1900 in Burns Township, LaCrosse County, Wisconsin; he married Sarah C. Streeton who was born in 1843 in Burns Township, La Crosse County, Wisconsin and died in 1934 in Burns Township, LaCrosse County, Wisconsin; both are buried in the Burns Cemetery, Burns Township, LaCrosse County, Wisconsin; married December 13, 1869 in LaCrosse County, Wisconsin. The 1860 Census for Buena Vista, Richland County, Wisconsin shows a son living with Samuel and Sarah Bunn age 17 years. LeRoy then served in the Twenty-fifth Wisconsin Volunteer Infantry enlisting in February 24, 1864, after which he engaged in agricultural work in Trempealeau County until he went to work for the Sawyer and Austin Lumber Company in La Crosse, Wisconsin, being mentioned as a valued employee and one of the highly respected pioneers of La Crosse County (pub. 1892). In the 1880 Census Leroy Bunn, wife Sara! h, and son Irving (4 b. WI) are living in Phillips County, Kansas. The Civil War Pension Index lists Leroy with widow Sarah S. being an invalid on November 23, 1883 and her widowed on July 19, 1900; the 1890 Veteran Schedule shows Leroy back in La Crosse County, Wisconsin. Although he claimed Sally as his mother, she was probably his stepmother, according to family history. Sarah Streeton Bunn was the daughter of: William Streeton who was born in 1818 and died in 1895 in Burns Township, LaCrosse County, Wisconsin and Sarah who was born in 1820 and died in 1896 in Burns Township, LaCrosse County, Wisconsin; both are buried in the Burns Cemetery, Burns Township, LaCrosse County, Wisconsin – both were old and valued residents of Burns Township. LeRoy and Sarah Bunn had one son: 1) Irving J. Bunn born September 24, 1874 in Trempealeau County, Wisconsin died November 25, 1915 in LaCrosse County, Wisconsin aged 41 years, 2 months and 1 day – buried Oak Grove Cemetery, LaCrosse County, Wisconsin.

According to Ancestry.com's WI marriages pre-1907 Siroy (betcha dollars to doughnuts that's a mistranscribed Leroy) married Sarah Streeton 13dec1869 in La Crosse Co. WI. That explains the extra Sarah that everyone lists in their trees. In the 1880 census, there is a Sarah and William Streeton living in Burns Twp., La Crosse Co. WI and I'm thinking these are her folks. Leroy Bunn, wife Sarah, and son Irving (4 b. WI) are living in Phillips Co. KS. The 1890 Veteran Schedule shows Leroy back in La Crosse Co. WI. The Civil War Pension Index lists Leroy with widow Sarah S. being an invalid on 23nov1883 and her widowed on 19jul1900 (fits with his headstone pix). Hope this helps fill in some blanks. Deb :)
