ANN ELIZA MINAR LAMB COX SNIDER-

Ann Eliza first married Jairus Lamb, he died Mar. 11, 1842; she was certainly pregnant when he died- son Lyman was born July 4 of that year. She then married Samuel Cox- he passed on in 1857; she lastly married George W. Snider/Snyder (b. abt. 1807-? ) on April 7, 1867. She is buried beside her first husband and family with the Snider surname. Places of interment for her last two husbands is currently unknown.

I am tentatively adding a link to George W. Snider, the data adds up to it perhaps being this man. [21 Jul 23]

There was a son, James H. Cox, aged 6 mos.on the 1850 census, who died young. I have lately located him buried beside his grandmother, Elizabeth Conway Cox, in Youngs Prairie cemetery, Cass County, MI.

He is a descendant of an ancient and widespread family whose name variously appears as Miner, Minor, Minar and Minard. His American ancestor was John Minar, born April 11, 1780, died October 28, 1845. John Minar took to wife Catherine Colon, who was a lineal descendant of Dominie Bogardus and Anneke Jans, a princess, and granddaughter of William III of Holland.* To Dominie Bogardus was born a son William, William was father of a daughter Annette, who became the wife of Jacob Bower. Their daughter, Anna Elizabeth Bower, became the wife of Jacob Quackenbos. whose son Ryemier, married Catherine Walden. They had a son Peter, who married Lytic Marsenas, of Schenectady, New York, November 1, 1701, whose son married Anna Scott, May 10, 1723. John Quackenbos, son of the marriage last named, was grandfather of Catherine Colon. John Minar, Sr., and his wife, Catherine (Colon) Minar, were the parents of the following named children: 1.

*The part about Anneke Jans being a princess, etc, seems to be family legend and not fact. KG
