The wood frame house located at 407 N. Bever St., on the northeast corner of N. Bever St. and Nold Ave., was likely built between 1909-1910 by either Edward D. Fisher or Earl W. Mann and his wife, Hazel F. Mann, as a house is shown at this location on the 1911 Sanborn Fire Insurance maps. The Mann's owned the property for seven years before selling it Wilson P. Snyder in 1917. For nearly 15 years W.P. Snyder was in the horse sales business and was joined in partnership by his son, Miles H. Snyder, and the two conducted their horse business from their large sale barn, which later was converted into the Hudson-Essex automobile sales garage. For over 20 years Wilson P. Snyder had also been director of the Wayne County National Bank and was elected to the presidency of this bank following the death of the previous bank president Dr. George W. Ryall. | The wood frame house located at 407 N. Bever St., on the northeast corner of N. Bever St. and Nold Ave., was likely built between 1909-1910 by either Edward D. Fisher or Earl W.
