Brief graveside services with the Rev. Robert Harms officiating will precede burial. The plummer Funeral Home will be in charge of local arrangements.

They and their family moved to western Nebraska, coming to this commuity about 1918 and making this their home until 1944 when they moved to Denver where they made their home with a son. Mrs Snyder was preceded in death by her husband and four of her sons.

  GRAVE STONE
  Mary E. Snyder 1874 - 1955 Harry and Mary (Hillman) Snyder is another couple who's family was hard to locate. This might seem strange as they lived in Bayard and for a number of years were well known by my mother and her siblings. After the Snyders moved to Denver, they just seemed to disappear. One of the problems was that all of Harry's and Mary's children were dead before I began my search. I finally located a few of their grandchildren, but the were not very interested in sharing information on their family. I have never located Harry's grave which I presume is somewhere in Denver. One of the small mysteries I have never solved is why, after having lived in Denver for so many years, was Mary's body returned to Bayard for burial. Her obituary was in the Bayard newspaper. I wonder if Rob and Anna Hillman knew she was brought back to Bayard? Maybe it was her wish as she had several children buried in Bayard Cemetery.
