General Notes: Husband - Lemuel Snively


He was reared to the life of a farmer, in the meantime attending the seminaries at Greencastle, Chambersburg, and Mercersburg, Pennsylvania, thus laying the foundation for an education. Subsequently he prepared for, and became a student at Dickinson College in 1853, remaining there one year and closing his school days.
Some time after his marriage he took charge of the homestead farm of 131 acres, belonging to his father, which he then conducted for many years. His home place consisted of 100 acres, and was part of the original tract taken up by Jacob Snively in 1734, thus being in the family for over 150 years.
He was a Republican, and an active worker and influential man in his party. He served in the following offices: Township clerk, three terms; auditor, three terms, and county auditor for one term of three years. When he retired from farming he removed to Greencastle, where he was a justice of the peace for many years.
He and his wife were members of the Presbyterian Church.
