SNEED, WILLIAMS posted by Patsy Thomas on Sunday, March 1, 1998
SNEED - WILLIAMS Bible The records of the SNEED - WILLIAMS families were copied from a very large old Bible. This Bible had been given to Mary Williams SNEED by her father, William WILLIAMS in Granville County, North Carolina in 1776. This William WILLIAMS was brother of the Judge John WILLIAMS, a member of the Transylvania Company. Mary Williams SNEED and her husband, Stephen SNEED lived and died in Granville County, but their son Richard SNEED and his wife and children came to Henderson County, KY about 1850. They evidently brought the Bible with them and it has belonged to members of his branch of the SNEED family in Henderson since that time. For many years the Bible was in the possession of Susan Henderson Sneed THOMPSON and her sister, Marianna Soaper Sneed RANKIN. After the death of Mrs. THOMPSON in 1961, Mrs. RANKIN closed her home in Henderson and stayed with her niece, Kate Mason COOPER, in Nashville, TN. While she was away thieves drove a truck to the back of Mrs. RANKIN's home and took away many valuable antiques, silver and other items that could never be replaced. The Bible was also taken. Many objects were recovered but the Bible remained lost for about two years. There was a tenant house on a farm in the Geneva section of Henderson County being dismantled and in an old trunk the SNEED - WILLIAMS Bible was found and returned to the family. It had been water-soaked and the bindings in bad condition, but most of the writing can still be read. Some pages faded but some of them are still bright and clear. The records in this Bible are written on the backs of full page pictures. It is a very remarkable Bible. Now in the possession of Richard Henderson SOAPER and his brother, Stephen Sneed SOAPER, great-great-grandsons of Stephen and Mary Williams SNEED - the original owners of this Bible. Compiled and copied by: Katheryn Howe Basett. Karen is online at KKPR31A@Prodigy.com.
