[source: Robinson's History of Greene County, Ohio (1902), p. 217:
"James Snodgrass, A Soldier of 1812.
Silvercreek lost an estimable old citizen in the death of James Snodgrass. He was aged eighty-seven years, seventy-nine of which were spent in Greene county. He served as a
soldier in the war of 1812. He knew Springfield, Ohio, when three log houses comprised
what is now one of the most flourishing cities in Ohio. He served five years in the army in
the war of 1812, was mustered out of the service at Green Bay, Wisconsin, from which
place he walked to his home in this place in 1819. He served under Captain Taylor, as he
was wont to call him, who was the great soldier president, Zachary Taylor. He was in
what is now known as the great city of Chicago when there was but one log tavern there
and the garrison of the United States army, and was offered an acre of land anywhere he
wished to select it for doing the work of erecting a house and for every house he would
build. But he was anxious to get home, where he had not been for years. He died in May,
1882, and is buried at Jamestown, Ohio.]
