• Notes

  Fernando Snider, "was born April 30th, 1870. He is married to Emma Steller and resides in New Dundee where he is engaged as book-keeper in his father's mills." Eby, Ezra E. (1895). A biographical history of Waterloo township and other townships of the county: being a history of the early settlers and their descendants, mostly all of Pennsylvania Dutch origin: as also much other unpublished historical information chiefly of a local character. Berlin [Kitchener, Ont.]: [s.n.]. ________________ F. W. Snider The latter is a young man of ability and considerable business experience who has succeeded in building it up from its precarious existence to one of the leading and most successful industries of Wilmot. The mill today have a capacity of 150 barrels of flour per day, having four double sets of rolls and the building is four stories high and contains amply space Mr. Snider's special brands are "Atlas" and "Belle" for which he finds a ready market for all The can produce in addition to supplying a large local trade he ships many carloads annually to Montreal and other leading markets. Water is the motive power and of which there is sufficient for the year round. Since August last Mr. Snider has purchased as high as forty thousand bushels of wheat from the farmers throughout this section, and in his chopping department since the same month he has produced 13,500 bags of feed. The latter department is supplied with the latest improved machinery and has the capacity to supply the needs of a wide section of country. The mills are in charge of Mr. Byron Swartz, a practical miller. He is the son of the late John Swartz who was accidentally killed here a year or two ago. Mr. Snider was born at German Mills in April, 1870, and it can be truthfully said that he grew up in the milling business, his father having been for many years extensively engaged in this industry and who is to-day one of the most extensive mill owners in the Province. F. W. has had control here about 4 years. He was married to a Miss Steller and at present is the father of two children. It gives the CHRONICLE Scribe pleasure to note the success of young men who start out on a business career and have taken due advantage of a thorough system of business training during the days of their youth. In this respect the subject of my sketch is one among the few. Waterloo County Chronicle, 21 Apr 1898, p. 8
