Residence

Arnold Paul Schnetzer lived in Asbury, Warren County, New Jersey, when he died in 2008.  

from Ancestry.com
Please note the spouse, Anne Marie.
This is why researchers must question just about everything.
This transcriber put the wife of his nephew Joel as Arnold's wife.
Arnold never married.

Asbury, New Jersey

I don't have an actual address for Arnold Schnetzer.  Fact is, I stumbled on these two places as I was following Cemetery Road down on the map, looking for Washington Cemetery where his brother Norman is buried.  The obituary (see below) indicates the memorial was held at the Schnetzers' farm, which I suspect is one of these two places.  What did they farm?

Death of mother Alvena Marie Wenkel, 30 October 1975, Asbury, Warren, New Jersey.  I presume she's buried near there, probably in the same cemetery as her son, but I haven't found proof yet.  In fact, doing a search on Find A Grave, and on Billion Graves as well as on Google Search results in nothing.  I tried searching Washington Cemetery where her son Norman Schnetzer is actually buried, crickets.  I went onto Billion Graves to find the cemetery itself, found Cemetery Hill Road, and Schnetzer Lane, and Schnetzer Farms, but no real indication for Washington Cemetery.  So, I've drawn a blank here.  If you have any information or photos of her burial site, send me a note to the right.
