SNODDY - FUQUA - ALEXANDER
Carol Snoddy Byler Sat, 18 Apr 1998 11:17:55
Looking for ANY information on William SNODDY, Jr. (1789-1825). Married Elizabeth Mumford FUQUA.  William signed his will on April 7, 1825 in Lauderdale County, AL, and it was proven on May 11, 1825 by his brother, Graham, who was living in Lincoln County at that time.  William left all his estate to his father-in-law, Archibald FUQUA. In a letter from William Mason Snoddy (grandson of William), dated July 7, 1912, he states, "My mother told me that William SNODDY was called back to Kelso, Tennessee on some business about 1825 and was taken sick and died very soon in a few hours.  She told me he was married to a Miss ALEXANDER before he was married to my Grandmother and had one child named Margaret I. Snoddy [my records show Elizabeth Margaret Snoddy] who left this country with her uncle an old bachelor when she was small and went to Texas and married and her husband was killed by the Indians and she married a second time but she did not know what became of her."   So, it is assumed that William Snoddy died at Kelso, Tennessee, and that possibly, he is buried at the Old Rocky Point  Cemetery (also known as the Snoddy Cemetery). It hasn’t been established as to what happened to William’s daughter by Elizabeth Alexander. Thank you.
