  Moses E. Schneider, "twin brother to Joseph E., was born November 24th, 1810. On April 12th, 1836, he was married to Molly (Magdalena) (No. 1848), daughter of Abraham and Molly (Miller) Clemens. She was born March 3rd, 1820, and died January 29th, 1887. Soon after their married they moved about two miles east of Berlin where he was the owner of a beautiful farm.
