- General Notes
- The family of Snell has long been resident in the neighbourhood of Fewston. In 1672, we find Richard Snell, Widdow Snell, and Ireton Snell, all heads of families, paying hearth tax. In the Fewston parish register, we find in 1638 Richard Snell, in 1650 Jeremie Snell.
A century later Anthony Snell located in Swinsty Hall ; whose children were John, bap. Feb. 14th, 1741, buried May 9th, 1742 ; Ann, bap. April 10th, 1743 ; Anthony, July 25th, 1746 ; Richard, April 14th, 1750. Anthony Snell, of Swinsty Hall, yeoman, buried Nov. 8th, 1758.
At the same time Joseph Snell was also living in Swinsty Hall ; his children were Thomas, bap. Dec. 29th, 1744 ; Frances, Dec. 31st, 1746; William, Sep. 8th, 1748; John, Dec. 1St, 1754; and Elizabeth, Oct. 23rd, 1756. Joseph Snell, of Swinsty Hall, yeoman, buried Sep. 9th, 1762.
Three families of the name of Snell, all married, at this time resided in their portion of the Old Hall at Swinsty — Thomas, Richard and William, and all had children ; so the old mansion at that time would be a lively place.
