Magdalena, and Andrew, all Minors under fourteen years of age.
maybe sonJacob was of a prior marriage?
Since Jacob died in 1779 and was pretty young at the time, I wonder if it was related
to service in the Revolutionary War. Perhaps Jacob Snider in the 1st Class, 2nd
Company (Reading) Berks Militia.

####################################################
I believe this is the right Philip in Berks County mainly because of:
- the good fit in the 1800 census, Greenwich
- it appears that Philip disappears from Berks County at the time this one shows
up in the tax listing of Mahantongo Twp
- he had a daughter Magdalena and a wife named Maria at the right time/place

Notes:
I'm not sure if the tombstone at Zion is really this Magdalena or if it was his only wife.
Or this is the Magdalena, wife of John Smith in the 1850 census that is clearly a
different family? Everyone seems to assume that the one at Zion is this one.
But why was she buried at a different church? Could it be that the Magdalena,
d/o of Philip baptized in Greenwich Twp isn't this one (I think it is).
is this really the Magdalena Schmidt, wife of Johannes, buried at Zion, Pitman:
2 Dec 1803 - 24 Dec 1851? From my picture:
Machdlena?
????
Johannes Schmidt
Dec 2_ 1803
Dec 2(4?) Dec 1854
52 years, 22 days
(most is still hard to read)
Note - she definitely had died by the time the estate records came up in 1858. Had
she left John and been living in Barry Twp maybe (since many kids got married
there). I've tried to find John in the 1850census but can't find them anywhere.Magdalena married Johannes SCHMIDT Bef 1826, Upper Mahantongo Twp, Schuylkill Co, PA.

From the story on Daniel H. Smith in Biographies of Schuylkill County:
... a son of John S. and Judith (Herb) Smith, the father being a mechanic in Haas
during all his mature years. He was a master at his trade of blacksmithing and was
able to design and make anything within the sphere of his business....
John S. Smith was a Republican in political preferences, and a member of the
Church of God. Daniel H. Smith is the eldest of ten children born to his parents,
the others being Charles, of Ashland, Pa.; William, in Eldred township; Felix,
deceased; John, a farmer in Eldred township; Mary, of Mount Carmel;
Catherine, deceased; Lizzie, of Tower City, Pa.; Sarah, wife of William Beisel
of Shamokin, Pa, and Lewis, deceased.
Themiddle initial 'S' was for Schneider
Any chance he was in Civil War?

"MR. GEORGE SCHMIDT - NINETY YEARS OF AGE, BURNS TO DEATH IN HOME
NEAR LEIPSIC
On Wednesday evening, April 10 about nine o'clock, the home of George
Schmidt, on the Gore's road northeast of Leipsic Junction, was discovered on
fire. Thebuilding was of frame construction and finished with plastering
boards and paper, causing the fire to spread with great rapidity. Mr.
Orville Young, a mail carrier of Leipsic, was the first to discover the fire
and arrive on the scene. Through the flames the gathering neighbors could
see Mr. Schmidt sitting in a rocking chair in the front room. But the flames
were already bursting through the doors and windows and it was impossible for
any human being to approach the burning building, let alone to enter and
attempt the rescue of Schmidt. Friends and neighbors were compelled to stand
helplessly by while the flames in savage cruelty reduced the aged man to ashes.
Mr. Schmidt, though 90 years of age, was still engaged in purchasing eggs
and poultry from the farmers,and was out on Wednesday as usual. Returning
home Wednesday evening, he unhitched his horse and putting the halter over
the bridle tied him in the stable and retired to the house. The theory of
his friends is that he had suffered a stroke of paralysis, or being chilled
by the cold winds of Wednesday and was resting and warming by the fire when
the warmth of the fire kindled in the stove brought on restful sleep, and
that he did not awaken as the stove became hotenough to set fire to the
building. He apparently had answered the last callas the fire raged, for at
no time was he noticed to make any move or struggle.
Mr. Schmidt leaves a son, Felix, who runs a drug store at Hamler, and a
daughter, Mrs. Phillip Wise, residing near Leipsic.
His children, friends and the community are shocked by the tragedy which
brought a soul home to its last resting place."
