Mrs. Christina Snyder, widow of Alvis Snyder of Marlboro, died last Saturday at the home of her son, William Snyder of Red Bank, aged 66 years. Death was caused by paralysis and other complications. Mrs. Snyder was born in Germany, but had lived in this country nearly all her life. Her husband died about five years ago and for the past year she had made her home with her son. Three sons survive her. They are William Snyder of Red Bank, Jacob Snyder of Long Branch and Charles Snyder of Brooklyn. She leaves also two sisters, both of whom live in New York. The funeral was held yesterday at St. James's church. The body was buried in Mt. Olivet cemetery at Headden's Corner.
