Amanda Jane Burns Snyder
I have an old studio photograph identified as Amanda SNIDER who was the mother of Fred, Addie, and Dora. The photograph was taken at the Potter Studio in Mansfield, OH and appears to have been taken in the 1870's with Amanda likely in her teens at the time it was taken. I believe that this is a photograph of Amanda Jane BURNS SNYDER and have been able to gather the following information regarding Amanda and her family:
Amanda Jane BURNS was b. 15 or 16 Oct 1863 in Ohio to parents Jacob BURNS (1831-1920) and Mary WHISLER (1839-1898) who were married 9 Feb 1860 in Ashland Co., OH. Amanda was one of 7 children born to this couple including William C.; Amanda Jane; Daniel Robert; Mary C.; Samuel Edward; Martha J. or G.; and Byron BURNS, all born between 1862 and 1877. Amanda married William “Bill” Curtis SNIDER (1863-1953) on 22 Oct 1885 in Mifflin, OH and they had 7 children including Henry “Harry” Jacob; Myrtle; Christiana or Christina; Walter; William Frederick “Fred”; Adda “Addie” Jane; and Dora Amanda SNIDER, all born between 1886 and 1897. Amanda died 12 Nov 1897 in Richland or Ashland Co., OH and is buried in the Chestnut Grove Cemetery in Ashland, OH.
I am hoping to locate someone from this family so that the photograph can be returned to their care. If you are a member of this family or know someone who might be please contact me.
Thanks,
Shelley
