Individual Note:
     Information from Barbara SPADEA, 1997

Believed to be 'Uncle Alf' who emigrated to Philadelphia.

Alfred Sneade in Philadelphia (Uncle Alf) was FREDERICK ALFRED SNEADE. I spoke with his grandson's wife today, the Sidney that you had given me the phone number of. Two Sidney's are deceased, Alf's son and grandson. It is very confusing, but the woman I spoke with said her son, also a Sidney, is trying to compile the information for me and send it to me. If you recall, I had written to them by regular post.

Hopefully this is correct, (very confusing as there are two extra Sidneys we did not know about):

Frederick Alfred SNEADE m. Kate they had a son

Sidney George Richard SNEADE m Kathryn Shute they had two children

Sidney Frederick SNEADE Sr. m Lorrenda (the lady I spoke to) and
Jane Elizabeth Sneade m Thomas Burinski

Sidney Sr. & Lorrenda had a son

Sidney Frederick SNEADE Jr. who is compiling info for me.

I feel pretty certain Fred.Al and Kate were married in England. The story of two wives I am sure came from there. Kate was in the grocery store one day; apparently at that time you charged you purchases. Another woman came in, selected items, told the grocer to put them on her account, she was Mrs. Alfred Sneade. Kate piped up, "you can't be Mrs. Alfred Sneade, I am Mrs. Alfred Sneade " Now I wish I had more on that family story, but if I remember correctly Clara would say at that point, "and that's how they found out Al had two wives." End of story.

   
Fred.Al & Kate lived in a brick row house in Philadelphia. Those houses were very narrow and tall and I believe had 4 stories to them. They raised prize show dogs, Pomeranians (excuse spelling). The kennels were in the back yard. They also, had a parrot. When the dogs would start yapping the parrot would swear at them and tell them to shut up. One day Kate was housecleaning on an upper story and the parrot started yelling "Fire, Fire ". She came running down to find it was a false alarm. She was so angry, she must have made
quite a fuss that impressed him. After that every time she would go upstairs, he would start shouting "fire."

Fred.Al was in Atlantic City at a dog show, the weekend my parents got married. He had recommended a particular hotel to them. The morning after the wedding he met them and had breakfast with them at the hotel. I had never heard this before, it came up in conversation with my mother recently when I was trying to prod her memory about Al. Just before we learned about the extra two Sidney's, I had asked her if Al's son Sidney was younger than her. She said, "Oh, no." Then she told me when they lived in Amsterdam, NY and she was only a child, Sidney had come to visit. He was driving a motorcycle with a side car and it made quite a sensatiion. That would have been in the
early twenties.

Alfred emigrated about 1895, family followed in 1901.
