Notes for Stella Lena Snyder
31Re: Benjamin Franklin Snyder, West Virginia
Source: Interview with Stella Lena Snyder 1996: Stella Lena Snyder is granddaughter of Benjamin Franklin Snyder. Lena indicated that he was part Cherokee Indian. Lena called his first wife by "Betty" Davis and indicated this was her grandmother. Benjamin's wife, "Betty" died when Lena's father (Henry Carl Snyder) was only about 3 yrs old. She next remembers that Benjamin had a wife Sherry Shirk. Lena remembers they lived in Dry Fork and then lived with her father, Henry Carl Snyder and the family in Canann Valley. Lena remember Benjamin chewed snuff, had a mustache and would sing and play the "harp". (When Lena described the playing and demonstrated some motions to me it sounded more like a fiddle and she demonstrated the stomping of the foot. She remembers that he cut timber and that he was 90 some years of age when he died.
