Goodwin Adams b.1859

Goodwin Adams was born May 20, 1859 in Wayne County, Virginia (now West Virginia). He married Paulina Hobbs on Sep 13, 1877 in Wayne Co., WV. He died Apr 05, 1932 in Scioto Co., Ohio.
Goodwin is buried in Stevens-Hobbs Cemetery, Tiger Fork, Camp Creek, East Lynn, Wayne County, West Virginia. I'd appreciate hearing from anyone more familiar with this cemetery. I made an attempt to locate the cemetery, but was unsuccesful. I did find the Clay-Fraley Cemetery, and the Stevens-Hobbs one is supposed to be nearby. So, more detailed directions are needed. If anyone has knowledge of the exact location of the cemetery, please email me at tackgenealogy@hotmail.com

Paulina was born Oct 27, 1859 Wayne County, Virginia (now West Virginia) to Arthur E. Hobbs and Mary Ann Fraley. Paulina died May 20, 1940 in East Lynn, Wayne County, West Virginia. She is buried in Hobbs Cemetery, East Lynn, Wayne Co., WV. Paulina isn't listed with Goodwin as being buried in the Stevens-Hobbs Cemetery, so could this perhaps be another Hobbs Cemetery? Any information regarding this would be welcome.

Goodwin can be found in the following census records:
1860 Wayne County, Virginia (now West Virginia)
1870 Wayne County, West Virginia
1880 Wayne County, West Virginia
1900 Wayne County, West Virginia
1910 Wayne County, West Virginia
1930 Scioto County, Ohio


I don't have a location for Goodwin for the 1920 census. Paulina is living with their daughter, Erie, in Wayne Co., WV for the 1920 census. Also, for 1930 census, Paulina is living separately in Wayne Co., WV.
