I have found a Samuel Sneed in the Canadian archives in a Garrison Battalion in 1781/82.

His Son did emigrate to America in 1816. I'm wondering if Samuel emigrated to America and joined a Loyalist Regiment? The only one I can find that existed at that time was the 105th. And then returned to the UK at the end of the war.
