  • Notes 
    • JDS notes-Biography taken from page 2548 of "History of Fresno County California With Biographical Sketches of the Leading Men and Women of the County Who have been Identified with its Growth and Development from the Early Days to the Present," by Paul E. Vandor, Historic Record Company, Los Angeles, California, 1919: HENRY SCHNEIDER. - An enterprising viticulturist and horticulturist. Henry Schneider is well posted in that branch of agriculture, as his productive vineyard and orchards give testimony. He was born in Guges, Samara, Russia, August 21, 1888, and his father, George Schneider, was a farmer in that country and brought the family to Fresno in 1901. Here he engaged in ranching at Rolinda, where he bought a forty-acre ranch and cultivated the land until his retirement to Fresno in later life, where he now lives. The mother, Annie Felzing before her marriage, died in Fresno about 1913, and six children had been born to this worthy couple. The youngest child in the family, Henry Schneider was brought up on the home farm and received his education in the public schools of that country. After the family came to Fresno, in 1901, he assisted his father to care for the family and helped get a start by working out in vineyards. He then helped his father improve their own ranch until he reached twenty-one years, when he started out in life for himself, purchasing a twenty-acre ranch at Rolinda and improving it to vineyard, peaches and alfalfa. In the meantime, with his brother George he purchased forty acres of raw land in the Barstow district, and leveling it, set it out to Thompson grapes. Later they sold this property and Mr. Schneider devoted his entire time to his Rolinda ranch, which he operated until 1914, when he sold out and purchased his present twenty-acre ranch; this he also improved from the raw land and now has fifteen acres in Thompsons and the balance in apricot orchard. The marriage of Mr. Schneider, in Fresno, July 2, 1908, united him with Miss Lena Pretzer, born in Perrin Colony, and daughter of Jack Pretzer, a brother of Henry Pretzer, who were early settlers of Fresno County, coming here in the eighties. Her father was a rancher and vineyardist here but now is engaged in ranching at Chowchilla. Mrs. Schneider was educated in the public schools of Fresno County. They have three children: Lydia; John; and Harry. The family attends the Lutheran Church. Mr. Schneider is a member of the California Associated Raisin Company, and a man of progressive ideas and good judgment.
