The Sylvester H. Snowman Lot has gravestones that include Sylvester, plus his children. The back side of the main lot stone has inscriptions for Frederic P. Robert and Barbara S. Robert. Barbara S. Robert is the former Barbara Estelle Stanley, daughter of Florence Mabel Mason and her first husband, Ernest Stanley. Florence was married secondly to Walter Snowman. Thus Barbara's connection to the Sylvester Snowman line, by marriage, is that she is the step-daughter of Walter Snowman, (and daughter of "Florence M. his wife") on the opposite side of the gravestone. See the Sylvester H. Snowman Page for more info about Sylvester's descendants.

The George H. Snowman Lot has gravestones of George, Charles A. Snowman, Joseph Snowman, Capt., and his wife Mary Hervey. It isn't proven, but it is speculated that Joseph was the patriarch of the family, and George and Charles were his sons. See the Joseph Snowman Page for more info about Joseph and his descendants.

The Augusta B. (Sherburne) Snowman Lot has gravestones of Arthur DeForest Snowman and his wife Augusta B. (Sherburne) Snowman, plus William H., Jane A., and Mary A. Sherburne, who are presumably related to Augusta B. Sherburne, but the exact relationship is unknown. Arthur DeForest Snowman was the son of Sylvester H. Snowman, buried in a different lot in this cemetery. Augusta B. Sherburne was his second wife.

The Gilley Lot has the graves of Edgar D. Snowman and his wife Ethel B. (Macomber) Snowman, and the grave of Madeline B. Macomber. Edgar was the son of Isaac L. Snowman, and Ethel Macomber was Edgar's fourth wife. Madeline Macomber was presumably related to Ethel, but the exact relationship is unknown.
