I am researching my husband's family.

Norman Gwinn Smith was born Nov. 16, 1859 in Putnam Co., West Virginia
Father: ?? Smith
Mother: Mary A. Snodgrass, born about 1834
Mary A. Snodgrass's mother: Mildred ??
Mary A. Snodgrass's father: James B. Snodgrass

Norman died Feb. 10, 1936, location unknown, but might be Putnam Co. or surrounding counties.

He was married to Virginia C. Rayhill
Father: Jacob Rayhill
Mother: Rebecca ??

Norman Gwinn and Virginia C. Rayhill Smith's children were:
Arthur McDonald Smith (1883-1955 my husband's great-grand father. Arthur McDonald lived on Trace Fork in Putnam Co. with his wife Myrtle Ree Spurlock. They moved their family to Indiana 1919 to 1925.)
Walter
Grover
Carrie
Laura Mae
Bessie Bonalyn
Harry Austin

We are planning a genealogy vacation in September. We are very interested in getting as much of his family info together before we go.

We are especially interested in locating the grave of Norman Gwinn Smith. Can anyone help us out?

Also, looking for history of area, photo opportunities of homesteads, gravestones, etc. of the above families.
