Anyone have information on "Z. A. SNIPES," possibly ZENAS A. SNIPES. His name comes up frequently in my Fleming-Rose line and I'm trying to figure what his relationship is to Rufus Rose and his son Randolph. For example, in the obituary of Lucy Fisher (Romare) Rose, wife of Randolph Mathewson Rose, in The Atlanta Constitution, Atlanta, Georgia, Thursday, January 27, 1944, p. 20: ROSE - The friends and relatives of Mrs. Lucy Romare Rose, New York; Captain and Mrs. John I. Hale, Westfield, N. J.; Lieut. and Mrs. Randolph Rose, New York; Mr. John Hale, Jr., U. S. Navy; Mr. Robert Hale, U. S. Naval Academy; Mr. Randolph Hale, Miss Helen Rose, Miss Louise Romare, Mr. and Mrs. Vernon V. Tilson, Judge and Mrs. W. J. Tilson, all of New York; Mr. J. Murchison Thomas, Atlanta; Mr. Frank Lang, Memphis, Tenn., are invited to attend the funeral of Mrs. Lucy Romare Rose Thursday, Jan. 27, 1944, at 11:30 o'clock at the interment in Oakland cemetery. Dean Raimundo de Ovies officiating. The pallbearers will be Dr. Fred Manget, Mr. Charles W. West, MR. ZENAS A. SNIPES, Mr. John C. Woolfolk, Mr. Lawrence A. Burdett, Mr. Willis J. Davis. H. M. Patterson & Son. * * * Also, in the obituary of Laura (Rose) Lang, wife of Frank Lewis Lang in The Atlanta Constitution, Atlanta, Georgia, Sunday, March 2, 1941, p. D-6: LANG -- The friends and relatives of Mr. and Mrs. Frank L. Lang, Memphis, Tenn.; Capt. and Mrs. John Hale, Portsmouth, N. H.; MR. AND MRS. Z. A. SNIPES, Mr. and Mrs. Randolph Rose, New York, N. Y., are invited to attend the funeral of Mrs. Frank L. Lang Monday, March 3, 1941, at 2 o'clock at Spring Hill, Cannon Robert Crandall officiating. Interment, Oakland. The pallbearers will be Mr. J. Murchison Thomas, Dr. Clyde H. Harling, Mr. Alvin L. Richards, Mr. H. W. Stephenson, Mr. Foster Hume Sr., Mr. C. C. Berry, Mr. Dorsey Tucker. H. M. Patterson & Son. * * * The Atlanta Journal, Atlanta, Georgia, Sunday, March 2, 1941, p. D-6 (very difficult to read from microfilm): MRS. FRANK L. LANG DIES IN NEW YORK CITY Mrs. Frank L. Lang ... native Atlantan, died Saturday in New York City. She had made her home in Memphis since her marriage to Mr. Lang, an official of the William-Moore Company, dry goods ... of that city. Funeral services will be held Monday at 2 p.m. from Spring Hill, with the Rev. Robert Crandall officiating. Burial will be in Oakland Cemetery. Besides her husband, Mrs. Lang is survived by several nephews and nieces, including MRS. Z. A. SNIPES, of Atlanta. * * * Thank you for taking the time to look and pass along anything you might have.
