Snell-Zimmerman-Timmerman Family Reunion Newsletter Fall 2018

Hello Family Members

Snells Bush Church looks very beautiful with the surrounding snow on the
fields.  The planned work on the cemeteries scheduled for the fall was
postponed to spring due to the early snow.  We also began work restoring
the three windows on the south side of the building. They were taken out
and the windows boarded up for the winter and will be worked on throughout
the winter months to restore.   William (Bill) Timmerman, our president,
periodically takes a look at the church and has to walk through three foot
drifts to get to the building! William also wants to repair the two
shutters on the front of the building during this winter. The crawl space
under the church was fumigated to preserve the wood and kill the “powder
puff beetles” (powder post beetles).  Three walls of the exterior of the
church were painted before the first snow, in between the rain storms. The
additional exterior painting will be completed in the spring. A notice will
be placed in the newspaper for bids for landscaping (mowing) of the church
grounds and cemetery and a contract will be awarded in the spring.
Landscaping is one of our largest annual expense.

In 2019, the American Legion will be celebrating their hundredth
anniversary and we will be participating in the Memorial Day parade in St
Johnsville, New York.  In June, we are also scheduled to participate in the
Violet Parade in Dolgeville, New York. We participate in local community
events because we have a long history in the area and always welcome
visitors to events at Snells Bush Church.

We are always looking for updated contact and family information for our
extended family.  We are a family proud of our history and have to keep
younger family members involved. We are constantly getting people who
discover our family on the web, by DNA or people searching for genealogy.
They are very interested in how they are related to our family.

We have family genealogy books for sale to update your personal family
records. These genealogy books were updated twenty years ago. We are
looking for volunteers to update the genealogy books to include the next
generation and newly found family members.  The books contains stories on
how our ancestors survived the frontier throughout the formation of our
great country. The books also cover the land grant that we received from
the Mohawk Indian tribe wic is signed by King George III of England. We
also have the writings of Emma Timmerman, Caroline Timmerman Sidenius, and
Charles Markell and others that submitted their history of their early
ancestors. Our files also contain various photos of family and family
records on the frontier in the plains, travels to Canada, Mexico and
California.

We want to wish everyone happy holidays and we hope you will come to our
reunion August 3 and 4 2019. Hope to see you there

Sincerely
