EPHRAIM W. SNYDER - was the son of Moses B. Snyder, and great grandson o f pioneer Jacob Schneider of Bloomingdale. He was born March 5, 1858 at Bloomingdale (Vernon Snyder farm). He was married to Susannah, daughter of Peter E. and Catherine (Fry) Eby, on March 14, 1880. She was born at St. Jacobs Feb. 16, 1861. Mr. and Mrs. Snyder came to Rosendale after their marriage. He was a day laborer and worked at various farm in the district . Market gardening was carried on here. Ephraim Snyder was handicapped in making a living as he was subject to fits of epilepsy. Medical science then did not know how to cope with this disease. An adopted daughter, Lewella, Mrs. John Robertson of Chesley, Ontario, says "One thing I remember, we were very poor. Dad was an epileptic so farming was out. We kept a few cows and a horse, grew berries and vegetables and attended the Berlin weekly market. We were just existing, not living" . She also remembers the school at Bloomingdale, and going to the Mennonite Sunday School with an old gentleman, Henry B. Wahl, in his horse and buggy, and reciting the Bible verses she had learned there. The years went on until one day Mr. Snyder suffered a severe epileptic fit; he became violent and went about brandishing a large butcher knife. The family was terrified but neighbors soon came to the rescue. It took five men to subdue the unfortunate victim. They secured him with heavy ropes and placed him on a democrat (carriage) and with the village constable, Tom Bedford, watching over him, he was taken to the Berlin jail where he was placed in a padded cell . From there he was moved to the Hamilton asylum. He lived for three months and died there on March 10th, 1903. (This information given by Mrs. Selina Weber, a neighbor living across the road at the time.)

The family continued to live here until March 20, 1905when the property was sold. Mrs. Snyder then moved to Port Elgin where her relatives resided.

Ephraim Snyder and daughter Hannah, who died in 1880, and son Hiram Oct. 25, 1882, are buried in the Mennonite cemetery, Bloomingdale.

Susannah (Eby) Snyder died Aug. 10, 1936 age 75, and son Jeremiah died June 19, 1948- both buried in Southampton cemetery. Daughter Lizzie, Mrs. Wesley Smith, resides in Saugeen Township, Bruce County.

FREY - On the 1st of July 1893, near Breslau, Waterloo Co., Ont., very suddenly, Abram, second son of Bro. John Frey, aged 16 years, 5 months and 13 days. Abram was bringing a mowing machine from another farm, having fastened the machine to the back of a light wagon. As he was closing a gate through which he had just passed the team started and he, running forward, and trying to get on his hold gave way and he fell back, the wheel of the mower passing over his head killing him instantly. He was buried on the 4th at the Snyder M.H. Many friends and neighbors assembled to sympathize with the deeply bereaved family. Funeral services by Elias Weber at the house and at the M.H. by Moses Bowman from 2 Kings 4: 18 and D. Wismer from Ps. 90: 12

Clare was born on a farm where now are the Eastwood Collegiate and Sunnyside Home. With his parents \endash Titus and Mary Ann (Detweller) Shantz \endash he attended First Mennonite then Stirling Avenue churches and was fully involved in each as Sunday school teacher, song leader, in male quartets, the Literary Society, Young People's Bible meetings, etc. In the early 1940s, Clare attended Ontario Mennonite Bible School.

Nora was cook there, making meals for an average of 125 \endash 150 students: three meals a day, seven days a week. They were married in July 1945 and in September that year Clare joined Nora as a member of Erb Street. He was chosen by lot and ordained as deacon in 1948, serving until 1980, then was deacon emeritus until his death.In the 1950s Clare fell from a ladder, while working as a carpenter for J C Hallman, and severed his spinal column. After months of adjustment and rehabilitation, he continued as service manager at J C Hallman's until retirement. Some of Clare's many achievements \endash despite being restricted to a wheelchair \endash were getting a ramp built at Erb Street Church, and building trailers designed for his special needs so that he and Nora could travel.Nora's birthplace was on the farm situated on the north west corner of Columbia and Philip Streets in Waterloo. Her parents were Mennonite and Hattie (Lichty) Burkhart and the family attended Erb Street Mennonite Church from about 1922. There was a time at Erb Street when Sunday school pupils could choose their teacher: Nora moved with one class of teenage girls for nine years. The Sunshine Band Committee (later Girls' Club), Junior Charity Circle, the Beacon's WMSA (later WMSC Circle) and librarian were other leadership roles Nora took.In 1958, 1959 and 1960 Nora underwent many operations and treatment for cancer: one operation removed one eye and half of her upper jaw. She was told she would probably not live for another year.

Erval married Nora Burkhart Jul 1945. Nora (daughter of Menno M. Burkhart and Hattie Z. Lichty) was born 22 Jun 1915, of, Kitchener, Waterloo Region, Ontario, Canada; died 16 Aug 2006, Cambridge, Waterloo Region, Ontario, Canada; was buried , Erb Street Mennonite Cemetery, Waterloo City, Waterloo Region, Ontario, Canada.
