Events:
I have one Trefethen family connection. I found a photograph of an infant in our family files that gave a name and date of birth. I was able to track it and found it was a child of Clarence L. Snow and Annie M. Trefethen. I contacted a Family Tree Maker submitter CD Vol 4, True 2379. The individual responded with the following information:
Obiturary clipping from Farmington, Maine Franklin Journal, dated in pen "1946".
Mrs. Annie M. Snow, formerly of Wilton, died at the Nursing Home of Mrs. Frances Furbush in Farmington on Oct.24. Mrs Snow was born March 22, 1861, the fourth child of Jospeh ans Susan Webster Trefethen. She attended the Wilton Academy and graduated in the Class of 1888 from the Women’s College Course, offered at that time in connection with Kent's Hill Seminary. In 1891 she married Clarence Snow of Leominster, Mass., and made her home there until the time of his death in 1896. To them was born one son who died in infancy [This is the child who I have a photograph of]. In 1897 she went to live with her brother, Henry E. Trefethen, at that time in the faculty at Kent's Hill Seminary but later Professor of Astronomy and Mathematics at Colby College. She reside with this brother and family of young children for five years. Most of her active life since that time was spent in Wilton. She lived for some years with her parents at their family home on Weld Stree, later moving with her mother i to the home of Dr. and Mrs. William J. Trefethen on Bass Hill. She was employed for many years by the GT. H. Bass Shoe Company. Since 1938 she made her home with her sister, Mrs. Herbert J. Ellsworth of Farmington. Mrs. Snow was an active member of the Methodist Epicopal Church of Wilton. She was a Past Worth Matron of the Wilton Chapter of the Order of the Easter Star, a Past District Deupty of this Order, also a Past Noble Grand of the Wilson Lake Rebeckahs. A memorial service was helt the following Saturday at the Methodist Episcopal Church in Wilton, the Rev. B. F. Wentworth officiating, assisted by the Rev. Merle Conant of Farmington. Mrs Snow is survived by ther sister, Mrs. Ellsworth, two sister-in-laws, Mrs. Henry E. Trefethen of Watervill and Mrs. William J. Trefethan of Waban, Mass., two cousins, William A. Weeks of Wilton and his sister, and several nieces and nephews, among who are Harold P. Trefethen of Waban, Bass., Miss Vivian M. Ellsworth t Farmington.
From what I can determine, she is buried in Lakeview Cemetery, in Wilton, Maine, in her parent’s lot. Chet True, Sacramento, CA. Hope you find this of interest. Chester True E-mail:
