  • Notes 
    • Their Farm Home Is 83 Years Old

      Mr. and Mrs. Jonathan Snyder, R.R. 1, Lexington, who were married in Kitchener, then Berlin, 60 years ago today. Mrs. Snyder's birthplace is now the Westmount golf course. Their Lexington home overlooks the airport.

      Diamond Bridegroom and Bride See Many Changes

      Sixty years ago the land opposite the Benjamin Snyder homestead at Lexington was a farm where crops were planted, grew and were harvested season by season. Today the same land is the location of a bustling airport. Sixty years ago the Samuel Snyder homestead south of Waterloo was a also a farm, where also the land was tilled industriously. Today that area is a golf course dedicated to the pursuit of recreation. Thus both Mr. and Mrs. Jonathan Snyder, R.R. 1, Lexington, who are observing their diamond wedding anniversary today have had particular opportunity to observe the changes that have occurred in their lifetime. For Mr. Snyder was born and has lived his life on the Benjamin Snyder homestead which once overlooked a pioneer farming countryside and now overlooks the outcome of modern science -an airport, and Mrs. Snyder was born on the Samuel Snyder [Snider] farm near Waterloo which in her lifetime has been converted from a pioneer homestead into a golf course. Mr. Snyder who is 83 years of age, is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Snyder and he was born and still resides on the farm that was cleared by his grandfather. The farm house still used by Mr. and Mrs. Snyder is 83 years old, having been built the year Mr. Snyder was born. Before her marriage, Mrs. Snyder was Miss Susannah Snyder. She was born 80 years ago, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Snyder, whose farm was the land on which the Westmount golf course is now located. Mr. and Mrs. Snyder were married quietly in Kitchener, then Berlin, 60 years ago today. Immediately after their wedding they went to live at Lexington and have remained there since that time. Their family includes three children, Mr. Milton Snyder on the homestead, Mrs. D. Reichert, St. Catharines, and Mrs. Ferman Brubaker of Kitchener. Their only grandchild is Mr. Bob Brubaker. Both Mr. and Mrs. Snyder are members of the Evangelical church at Bridgeport. Owing to the fact that neither Mr. or Mrs. Snyder are in good health, the anniversary will be observed quietly.
