A Wilson Family Tree
Notes for Josiah Jacob (Jay) Snyder
From a transcription of an interview with Leona D. Snyder at http://www.snydersinfo.com/LeonaSnyder.pdf:
Josiah’s middle name was Jacob. They call him Jay. Before he got married he was working in Auburn where he got acquainted with his wife, Ida Smith. By that time he always hated that name Josiah and he was always called Si. When he got off on his own, he always signed with his initials J.J. Well, then after they were married everybody began calling him Jay.
[It also says, later in the interview, that Jay and Ida had an adopted daughter named Leona Louise.]
