My first thought was "Holy Toledo! I didn't know there were tarantulas in WV!" That's a large spider! Best I could do was get you the Genus. I'm thinking yours is likely a female, based on the description on Bugguide.

disclaimer: While I love spiders and other leggy things, I do not claim to be an expert... but I'm workin' on it! :)
