Preface The Tapestry of History Virgil Talbot wrote in his book that history is a giant never-ending tapestry with threads weaving in and out of the centuries, the scenes changing constantly, and new characters replacing the old. Family History is the history about our people, \Vhethcr they were rich or poor, famous or infamous, powerful or humble. It is many nationalities, shades of color, languages and religions. $iu.orlgrm:1s Such is the Snodgrass Family History. It reaches back through the pages of ti1ne to over ten generations that \.Ve kno\v. If our research is correct our direct lineage goes back to William Snodgrass \vho was born in 1697 (One source says he was born in 1704) in Tyrone, Ireland. William Snodgrass was my 5 111 great grandfather on my mother's side of the family. My mother was Mae Elizabeth Rauch and her mother was Winifred '"Winnie'' Lou Snodgrass who was my grandmother. In this book l will present the descendants of this William Snodgrass. Countless hours of research into every source at our disposal leads us to believe that wc can trace our lineage back to William Snodgrass. It is only fair that we point out that there are some that doubt this lineage. The question arises with what some say; is that the Snodgrass family was from Scotland not Ireland and we must remember that this information comes from many sources in the 1600 to l 700's time frame so there are many chances that the information can have errors. · Our research says that the Snodgrass family originated In Scotland. Possibly some moved on to Ireland during various wars with England and clannish wars in Scotland. Some Snodgrass Families came directly to this country from Scotland and Ireland and it is believed that they first settled in Pennsylvania and later moved to Virginia. Perhaps in time further research will definitely prove or disprove the Snodgrass Family place of origin. Until then we present what we honestly believe to be our correct lineage particularly from the William Snodgrass who was born in 1697 (1704) in Tyrone County, Ireland. William died 25 Sep l 766 in Black Creek, Berkeley County, Virginia. Note: Berkeley County, Virginia is no\v in West Virginia just south of Pennsylvania. William Snodgrass was married in 1727 in Martick Township, Lancaster, Pennsylvania to Catherine Jane Patterson who \Vas born in 1705 possibly in Virginia. She was the daughter of John Patterson. Our ancestral quest starts from this family to the Snodgrass families \.vho 1nigrated to Washington County, Arkansas. Whatever the outcome of future research, our ancestors were an amalgamation of hardy people who migrated from Scotland and Ireland across the Atlantic tu possibly Pennsylvania and on to the Virginia \Vilderness of Botetourt that he and his wife Winifred ''Winnie" Norton Bradley (Snodgrass) decided to move west alter the Civil War in t-~~~t-i:d-la_n_rl_, The Snodgrass Family Crest from Scotland. about 1870 to see if his health would improve.They decided to go to Cabin Creek. Johnson County, Arkansas. They sold most of their household furnishings and loaded what was left of their processions in two wagons with two good teams of horses and their children. William and Winnie Snodgrass and their children traveled overland to Chattanooga, Tennessee. From Chattanooga they loaded their teams of horses, wagons and possessions on a flatboat boat and floated down the Tennessee River to the Ohio River to Paducah, Kentucky. They then floated down to the Mississippi River and later changed tu the Arkansas River. They then traveled by steamboat up the Arkansas River to Big Piney River, near Clarksville, Johnson County, Arkansas. Winnie had several cousins living in Cabin Creek, Arkansas. William and Winnie farmed and lived near Clarksville at Cabin Creek. Johnson County, Arkansas for about t\vo or three years. Their daughter Martha Alice Snodgrass died in 1873 at Cabin Creek. After Martha Alice died William and Winnie decided to n1ove again. They decided to move near Lincoln, Washington County, Arkansas. Our Snodgrass Family History resides 1nainly here in Washington County. Arkansas. Here the pattern changed and descendants scattered to the four winds. Today, descendants of William Snodgrass live in virtually every state of the Union and some foreign 06/30/01 The Norwood Family History Page ii
