Robert Charles Anderson in the Great Migration Series published in 2015 states Anthony Snow's parents and origins are unknown. We first have evidence of him in the colonies in 1637. Please note he has no known relationship to Nicholas Snow, they just happen to have the same name. We do not know what ship he arrived on. Internet sites erroneously report that he was either the son or brother of Nicholas Snow and Elizabeth Rowelles or Nicholas Snow and Constance Hopkins but there is no evidence for either of these relationships.
Anthony Snow parentage: Volume VI, 2nd Edition of the "Mayflower Families 1-5 generations does not list Anthony Snow as a child of Constance Hopkins Snow and Nicholas Snow. They married in 1627; Anthony is listed as being born about 1615 in England. Their first child is listed as Mark born 9 May 1628. Anthony's only listed Mayflower connection is thru his wife Abigail Warren, where his name does appear, but no parentage. Anthony and Nicholas might be brothers, but have, as yet, found no definitive info. For example there is no record at all that the two men exchanged any information, property, were mentioned in will, etc. that one might expect if they were family.

Shortly after marriage Mr. Snow removed to Marshfield, where he became one of the leading citizens of the town:
