I cannot find his family on the 1881 census. 1901 census says they were all born Ontario.

Jacob SNIDER, 19, Portland, same, s/o Horance & Phoebe married Abigail CARD, 221, Camden, same, d/o Amos & Jane, witn: Philip Card & Jane Long, both of Camden, March 8 1858.

This may be your connection as Absalom's wife's last name was Snider

Also looking for information on John Robert Ferguson who was married to Hester (Nellie) Sny(i)der married around 1900, had five children - Vincent, Harvey, Ruby, LLoyd, and David. Lived around Marysville early 1900 then moved to Pittsburg north of Kingston....Clayton Ferguson

I would suggest you try the following site: rootsweb/web sites/canada/ontario/frontenac. A little over half way down the page is ONTARIO MARRIAGES 1800-1924. If the poster has gotten to it you might find information about the wedding date and parents. I just did a query there on FERGUSON and the search returned 1158 finds. Good Luck.
