Schnebly, a farmer and stock dealer of Knox County was born in Clark Co., Missouri August 19, 1844, and is a son of Maj. John H[enry] and Elizabeth (Houser) Schnebly, and is of [Swiss] descent…. Our subject is the eldest of three children, all living. He received his education at the common schools, and remained at home with his father until twenty-two years old. He then accompanied his father to LaFayette County, and began to farm on his own account. He then went to Saline County, remained two years, and then finally moved to Knox County. "When twenty-eight years old, he married Miss Emily Suter, of Scotland Co. Mo., daughter of John Suter, and to this union three children have been born: Francis M., Ira V., and Freeland O. Both Mr. and Mrs. Schnebly are members of the Missionary Baptist Church. Like his father he has always been an ardent Democrat, but has never aspired to office. He is a self-made man, and now owns 340 acres of good land, part in Scotland and part in Knox Counties...." - "History of Lewis, Clark, Knox and Scotland Counties, Missouri" (1887), p. 1116-17.
