Biographical History

Sneyd was an English amateur caricaturist and minister.

From the description of Walter Sneyd collection of early modern documents, ca. 1363-1800 (inclusive), ca. 1600-1800 (bulk). (Harvard University). WorldCat record id: 83948978 From the guide to the Walter Sneyd collection of early modern documents, ca.1363-1800 (inclusive), ca. 1600-1800 (bulk)., (Houghton Library, Harvard College Library, Harvard University)

Walter Sneyd's Portraits of the Spruggins family (published in 1829) is a parody of contemporary family histories and similar works of nineteenth-century antiquaries, genealogists, and art historians. The work was for some time mis-attributed to Frances Parker, Countess of Morley. The text and illustrations were probably entirely the work of Sneyd, while Morley appears to have been responsible for drawing the lithographs from Sneyd's sketches. Sneyd (1809-1888) was an Oxford educated clergyman and a notable collector of medieval manuscripts. He was ordained in 1834, and thereafter lived at Denton House, near Oxford, until 1870, when he inherited Keele Hall, in Staffordshire. Cf. Nicolas Barker's introduction to the 1985 facsimile: The Spruggins gallery (Alburgh: Paradigm, 1985).
