John Wesley Snyder (June 21, 1837 – April 15, 1922) was a pioneer rancher, farmer, and businessman from principally Georgetown in Williamson County near Austin, Texas. ==Background==

Snyder and the former Kentuckian Susan Hale (1816–1892), later Susan Wulfjen,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=John Wesley Snyde )〕 in Yazoo County in west central Mississippi. Charles Snyder died in 1840, and the three-year-old moved with his family to Missouri. In 1856, Snyder and a brother, Dudley Hiram Snyder (1833–1921), came to Texas as partners in an apple orchard and horse-trading business situated between Georgetown and Round Rock, located in both Travis and Williamson counties.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=H. Allan Anderson of Lubbock, Texas "John Wesley Snyder" )〕 Dudley Snyder had gone to work at the age of seven. At fourteen, he was earning $3 per week splitting rails. In 1854, he was acquitted of murder in a case of self-defense. Thereafter, he committed himself to leading an exemplary life, and his family never again spoke of the trouble that he had faced in his early years.〔John Hope of Hockley County Historical Commission of Levelland, Texas, "The Snyder Brothers," West Texas Historical Association, annual meeting, Lubbock, Texas, April 1, 2011〕 Dudley Snyder was a devout member of the Methodist Church.〔 He was the founder of the Georgetown High School Board.
