    3. Thanks Phillip for the link to Snow Mountain in Virginia! I don't know how many times I have wished there was a way to show pictures and maps on the list. This was a great way to do that. We just recently restored the Snow Cemetery in Winlock, Lewis County, Washington. It is identified on the maps too. Joseph Snow and Margaret (LaMance/Laymance) Snow's homestead just south and west of Winlock is the site location. Joseph and his brother Thomas and their two sisters Sarah Snow and Matilda (Snow) Henderson moved from the Oakdale, Morgan County, Tennessee area in the late 1880's to Washington Territory. Both Thomas and Joseph were Union Civil War veterans. The homestead has been sold numerous times to logging companies and private owners and back to logging companies. All the while the one acre Snow Cemetery has been kept separate and in the family estate. For anyone interested Washington Cemetery Preservation has a write up on the preservation at: http://www.rootsweb.com/~wapsgs/WSCA/lewis/lewis.html Look for Snow Cemetery in the County lists. Here is the Topo Map for the area. Snow Cemetery is almost in the middle of Section 12 and if you explore around there you will notice there are two Snow Creeks there. http://www.topozone.com/map.asp?lat=46.4553&lon=-123.0083&size=s&s=25
