Beva ??) were married March 26, 1920 in Schuyler Co. Missouri." ------------ Son of John Snoddy and Etta Raines (sic. a/k/a Rains) Snoddy It is being assumed that the original first given name was "Thomas", with 'Tom' used in the obituaries for he and his wife as a form of a nickname. Note: the DOB and name information for this memorial updated January 10, 2015 per edit request, but is revised on August 9, 2016 to remove an actual middle name attribution. Differing sources list the middle name as "Harmon" or "Thompson", and it is unclear at this point which one would be more correct. Although possible that there were two middle names, FindAGrave provides name entries for only one middle name, and to use both names with a "/" in the middle name entry could complicate searches for this memorial. It should be noted that there is a "T" on the inscription - which may account for the use of "Thompson" for a middle name (sic. this contributor is not related to Thomas; my surname of "Thompson" is just a coincidence). Original cemetery sources indicated that there was no Fairfield obituary published; however, that turns out not to be the case. The Fairfield Ledger obituary is published below. No Jefferson county marriage record located (see note above). ------------ Fairfield Ledger Monday February 3, 1969 Pg. 3 Col. 6 Tom Snoddy, 73, Taken In Death Tom Snoddy (sic), 73, former Fairfield resident, died Sunday afternoon at St. Luke's Hospital in Cedar Rapids. Snoddy made his home in Williamsburg. Before his retirement, he was employed for many years by the Iowa Electric Light and Power Co. here. Funeral services will be held Tuesday at 1 p.m. in Williamsburg. Burial will follow in Fairfield Memorial Lawn Cemetery. Snoddy is survived by several nieces and nephews, including Mrs. Eulalia Champ and Hazel Carlow, 702 W. Fillmore. Mrs. Snoddy preceded her husband in death Feb. 2, 1967 (sic. this date is in error - she died on Tuesday, February 7, 1967). ------------------------- Provided by Cheryl Kurnes on June 4, 2017: from the Williamsburg Journal Tribune 2-6-1969 Tom T.
