He had erected tombstones for them, but if one was put up for him, it hasn't survived. According to descendant Venda Keith [Contributor 47855993], he had a second wife, Olive A. Wickham Sneed (b. 15 May 1847; d. 31 May 1904), and a daughter with her, Esie Worrell. Olive later moved him from the Turner cemetery to Jacksonville Cemetery in Floyd Co., VA and is believed to be buried beside him. *** Francis Sneed's children: 1.
