I think all the Windy, Icy, Rainy, Frost &
Snows were children of "Trooper" John Snow.
He sure had a sense of humor to name his children like this.I have thought that maybe this guy married an Indian because he might have been a trader (didn't the troopers catch animals for the fur trade?).I know that a lot of white traders in Indian lands married someone in the tribe because of the protection it afforded them.They would have an Indian family and a white family (bigamists!). Am I making big assumptions here? Anyway, go to ancestry.com and you will find this guy and his children.
