  • Notes 
    • According to Robert L. Winder (Sep 2000):
      Rachel Winder, who was married to John Snebely by 1785, when her father's will was written, and who was a party to the Chancery suit of 1804. From correspondence with Mrs. Betty Jo Gilmore of Sacramento, CA, we know that John Snebely adopted the spelling of Snavely for his surname. The same source gives Rachel Winder's birthdate as 2 Oct 1751 and John Snavely's birthdate as 10 Aug 1759. John and Rachel lived in Washington County, MD for many years, but then moved to Greene County, Ohio, where they both died, John on 17 Dec 1819 and Rachel on 7 Dec 1822.
