His father Freeman Snow Senior, lived in Springfield MA and was born in Eastham, Massachusetts and his father Samuel Snow was descended from Mayflower passengers Stephen Hopkins and William Brewster (see Silver book). After moving from Springfield MA, the two Freeman Snows appear in the census of Windham NY The documentation from Freeman Sr to Jr to Anna to daughter Mary Anna can be found in relationships and birthdates and marriages that are listed in Freeman Snow jr's bible (a copy of which I obtained from the Mayflower Society from a previously approved application to the society.
Maryanna Leverich's husband George Lenham, brother Nathan L Lenham and father Louis (aka Lewis Lenheim, born Germany) were landowners and businessmen in Great Bend, PA and then moved to Dakota Territory in the 1880s where they were involved in banks, lumber mills, and railroads in the towns of Cooperstown and Sanborn (see Cooperstown Courier online at Lib. of Congress newspaper site and search for Lenham).
The Cooperstown Courier June 6, 1884 shows Lewis Lenham came from Saxony in 1840. In the same article announcing his brother Herman S. Lenham's death it says that Herman and Lewis' father was Soloman Lenham, merchant. Lewis' other brother William S. Lenham died a few months before in late 1883 at the age of 53 (see Courier article Nov. 2, 1883).
