Elias P. Snyder (1859-1891), Delaware County, Indiana

Working on filling in some gaps in my database by utilizing the "Indiana Marriages, 1811-1959" database at Familysearch.org to see what updates and corrections I could find.

Elias P. Snyder (1859-1891) was the son of Edwin Clark Anthony and Amanda (Groenendyke) Snyder.  His marriage on October 6, 1877 in Delaware County, Indiana was found in the database.  I have the surname as Snyder in my database, but the record clearly spells the alternative Snider.


"Indiana, Marriages, 1811-1959," index and images, FamilySearch (https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/XXYQ-3JB : accessed 17 Oct 2013), Elias P Snider and Nancy E Bell, 1877.
Elias was my maternal first cousin four times removed.  Our common ancestors were Elias Groenendyke and Nancy Jenkins.  Elias and Nancy had at least 3 children.  He died January 24, 1891 in Delaware County, Indiana.
