He returned home to Kirtland where his family had moved.  During his mission in Maine, he met a convert, Eliza Ann.  She moved to Kirtland where they took up their friendship and were married.  They went with the group to Far West but were forced to leave by the mobs.  They settled for a time in Lima, Illinois, until again they were forced from their home by a mob.  They lived in Nauvoo until forced out of there.  They lived in Iowa until 1852, when they formed a company with James at the head to travel to Salt Lake.  It was hard for him to take other wives as advised by President Young, but his faith was great and he complied.  In 1868 he was called by Brigham Young to go to Dixie to lay out tracts for townships.  He took Jane with him.  In 1876, after his mission was completed, he moved his family to Pettyville where he was made superintendent of the Sunday School and postmaster.  He and his sons helped build the school house.

Latter-day Saint Biographical Encyclopedia - Volume 1 - Biographies - Snow, James Chaney

Snow, James Chaney, president of the Utah (or Provo) Stake of Zion from 1853-1858, was born 11 Jan 1817 in the town of Chesterfield, Cheshire County, New Hampshire, son of Gardner Snow and Sarah Hasting.  He was reared from a child, eighteen months old, to manhood in the State of Vermont.  He was baptized into the Church 19 October 1833, was ordained a Teacher 23 June 1834, and ordained a Priest 23 Nov 1834.  In the year 1836 he filled a mission to the New England States, where he baptized many, among whom Elizabeth Cluff and Lucy Smith.  April 20, 1837, he received a patriarchal blessing in the Kirtland Temple under the hands of Patriarch Joseph Smith, Senior.  In 1838, he married Eliza Ann Carter at Kirtland, Ohio, and with his wife he traveled to Missouri in the Kirtland camp; thence went to Illinois and settled in Nauvoo, where he became a member of the Nauvoo Legion.  May 17, 1844, he left his home in Illinoise to go on a special mission, on which he was instructed also to electioneer for Joseph Smith, who was a candidate for the presidency of the United States.  A response to this call required a great sacrifice on Elder Snow's part as his family, consisting of a wife and four children, were in poor circumstances; they had not even flour in the house at the time, but his wife told him to go and do his duty, and God would provide; and so he did.

Elder Snow arrived at Addison, Indiana, 24 June 1844, after walking 52 miles.  At that place he was joined by Dominicus Carter; and the two Elders started out together without purse or scrip, and God blessed them.  On the 27th of June, the very day on which Joseph and Hyrum Smith were martyred, Elder Snow was preaching at Milroy, Rush, Indiana. After the martyred Prophets Brother Snow, together with other missionaries, was called home shortly after the martyrdom, and he was present at the meeting when the mantle of Joseph fell upon Brigham Young - an event of which he often testified afterwards.

Together with his family, he left Nauvoo in 1846, to go to the Valleys of the Mountains.  They remained at Council Bluffs until 1852, when they started across the plains with Brother Snow as captain of the company.  After enduring the hardships and privation of a long and toilsome journey, they arrived in Salt Lake City 9 October 1852.  Later in the fall, Brother Snow and family moved to Provo, Utah County and in 1853 he was appointed president of the Utah Stake of Zion, which position he held until 1858, when he resigned.  In the spring of 1857 he accompanied the civil positions in the community.  Thus he served as a member of the Utah legislature in 1856, and was appointed United States deputy marshal in 1853.  In 1858 he was elected surveyor of Utah county; and he was re-elected to located at Pettyville, where he died 30 April 1884 aged 67 years, 3 months and 19 days.  His body was taken to Manti for interment.  Elder Snow was loved and respected by all who knew him and remained firm and faithful in the Church till the last.  He was father of twenty children.

James C. Snow led  the James C. Snow Company that traveled across the plains in 1852 July-October.  There were 11 people in his family who made the trip.  James served as Captain of the company.  He was age 35 yrs.
