JACOB BYRON SNYDER
Jacob Byron Snyder, who was active in legal circles and public life in general in Scranton, Pennsylvania, for many years, was born in Greenfield township, Luzerne (now Lackawanna) county, July 7, I824, and was a son of Jacob and Rebecca (Niver) Snyder, and a grandson of Jacob Niver. The ancestors on both sides were of Dutch descent, and Mr. Snyder and Mr. Niver participated actively in the war of the Revolution. The public schools furnished a sound and practical preparation for his legal studies, which Mr. Snyder took up with F. M. Crane and Earl Wheeler at Honesdale, and with W.G. Ward at Scranton. For some years Mr. Snyder was a resident of Wayne county, Pennsylvania, and while there served as justice of the peace for 'a period of ten years, and as coroner for a term of three years.
After taking up his residence in Scranton, he was appointed as court crier of Lackawanna county, and served many years.
Mr. Snyder married, June 20, 1850 , Elizabeth, a daughter of John Decker, and of their children: Byron Jacob, married
Matilda, daughter of Lewis Cramer; Samuel Henry; Fred Gunster.

1910 Snyder Reunion
Posted 22 May 2007 by ksdirk
Snyder Reunion
The Scranton Tribune-Republican Wednesday, August 17, 1910
Descendants of Jacob and Rebecca Snyder held their family reunion yesterday in Nay Aug Park. Dinner was served at 2 o'clock and, according to the score kept by A. C. Snyder, and compared with the check list by another descendant, 171 members surrounded the tables.
During the afternoon, when cars brought additionals, the park became fairly filed with Snyder folk. It was supposed to be 'Ladies Day' at the swimming pool known as Lake Lincoln. The lake was filled with bathers. "Are you the only guard here to attend to all those children?" the lifeguard was asked. "Oh, no, those children are all Snyders", said the guard.
There were groups of them around the Everhart museum. There were groups promenading the drives. More clusters decorated the lawns. The picnic ground, where dinner was served, held another crowd. In sixes and sevens, they sat around the benches and swapped Snyder tales. More of them lined up at the zoo and fed peanuts to the bears. Younger Snyders climbed aboard the old gravity coach and 'monkeyed' with the hand brakes, just as A. C. Snyder, chief of gravity men, used to do forty years ago. Grandma Snyder, of one wing of the family, told a story of when they used to run 'rats' down the Lackawanna River from Olyphant.
"Rafts, you mean," A. C. Snyder corrected her. "They were rafts, not rats. I often heard my father tell about the rafts on the Lackawanna" continued A. C. S. "Oh, I though it was rats."
It was the first time the Snyder family broke away from Lake Chapman, the stomping ground of every annual gathering of the family heretofore. "We used to hold the reunion up at the lake, and say, maybe those farmers could not fix up a swell bill of fare," A. C. Snyder went on reminiscently, "but they never got up a better meal than this 'un." and he grabbed up a piece of cake to prove the assertion.
The family are descendants of Jacob and Rebecca Snyder, who immigrated from Duchess county, N. Y., to Olyphant in 1816, when the valley was a wilderness. That's where Grandma Snyder got the information about 'rats' running down the river. The attendance this year was larger than last. Next year it is expected that the gathering will be still larger, the forecast being based on the same theory that a family such as the Snyders, like the city of Scranton increased its census annually.
Officers for the next year were elected after the roll call in the morning. They are: president, S. L. N. Snyder, of Scott; secretary, James McLaughlin, of Scott; treasurer, A. C. Snyder, Dunmore. The committee elected to arrange for the 1911 reunion comprise: Mr. and Mrs. S. H. Snyder, of West Scranton; Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Snyder, of Dunmore; Mr and Mrs. Abe R. Snyder, of Dunmore; Dr. and Mrs. Marion Snyder, of Dunmore; Byron Snyder and Belle C. Williams, of West Scranton. The reunion is held annually on the third Tuesday of August.

Record for Jacob W Snyder
"Jacob Snyder II - from other Snyder Tree"
ID: I035
Name: Jacob SNYDER II
Sex: M
Birth: 1753 in Shohharie County, NY
Death: 1791 in Green Ridge, Greenfield TWP, Lackawanna .Co. Penn
Note:
This Jacob Snyder served in the American Revolution and was supposed to have been in the Battle of Yorktown and witnessed the surrender of Lord Cornwallis to George Washington on Oct 19, 1781. He was supposed to have enlisted in the NY Militia from Pawling, New York. He and his friend William Niver served in the same company and were at Yorktown. The Nivers and Snyders were close and the families intermarried. Niver's daughter Rebecca married Snyder's son, known as Jacob Snyder Junior.
I have a pair of silver plated brass shoe buckles that my Dad, William B. Snyder said belonged to Jacob Snyder and were worn at the surrender of Cornwallis at Yorktown. There is no way to prove this of course but it has been part of family lore for many years. I know that the buckles were made during this period in our history and are no doubt authentic .
Jacob Snyder was listed in the 1790 Census in Columbia County, NY. There were: 1 free white male of 16 years and upward, including heads of families; 4 free white males under 16; 5 free white females, including heads of families.
According to an article about the 50th wedding aniversary of Jacob B.Snyder
(Uncle Jake), quotes the following :" Uncle Jake comes from old Revolutionary stock and is one of the few men living today who has heard the story of Saratoga,Valley Forge, and Yorktown recounted by a participant in those and the intermrdiary events, his grandfathers both having served in the Contental Army throughout the whole conflict. " This newspaper article says that he is "buried 75 feet north of Jermyn breaker in Green Ridge where an old cemetary was located in the old days." I asume this is someplace in Pennsylvania. Another unrelated newspaper article refers to the death of Mrs Betsey Snyder (?) of Tompkinsville, PA. Feb 6, 1915, said she was formerly from "Jermyn". It must be a town no longer on the map.
Further information from the Lacakawanna Historical Society shows that the grave site was in Scranton. Jermyn's Centennial Braker was a mine shaft and tipple locatged in the Green Ridge area of Scranton. The old grave yard where Jacob Snyder is supposed to be interred was located at Glen and Fifth streets as late as 1877. The grave yard is no longer there. The people at the Lackawanna Historical Society do not what happened to the graves but they will let me know if they find out anything.
