Deacon Jabez Snow and Elizabeth Paine are his parents from Eastham,Ma. He married Elizabeth Doane on 22 May 1755 in Eastham. The first two of their children are born in Eastham,the last born in Granville,Annapolis Co.,NS.:

Josiah Snow -17 Oct 1755
Hannah Snow-10 Sep 1757
William B. Snow-6 Sep 1763
Sylvanus Snow-24 Feb 1765
Edward Snow-17 Jan 1771

"The Mayflower Descendant" vol.XV,Eastham and Orleans,Ma.Vital Records,pg 142.

The first Snow in North America was Nicholas Snow who arrived in Plymouth in 1623 on board the "Anne".He married Constance Hopkins,who came over on the "Mayflower" with her father,Stephen Hopkins in 1620.

There are four consecuitive generations with a son named Jabez,who married a wife named Elizabeth.

Capt. Jabez and his family arrived in Granville Township in 1762. Therefore info on site that first five of his children were born in Eastham, Mass is not correct. I believe William, Sylvanus and Edward were all born in Granville Township. The land petition of Josiah, Sylvanus and Edward in 1814 for land in Wakefield Parish, Carleton County, N.B. (from PANB) says that Josiah was born in Eastham and came with his parents to Granville Township in 1762, and that Sylvanus and Edward were both born in Granville Township. I have no info on Anna, I don't think she is listed in the Corey genealogy of Descendants of Capt. Jabez Snow.
