It's good idea to give some rows of data. Without it, I can only suggest reading this page:

http://pngu.mgh.harvard.edu/~purcell/plink/grep.shtml

The basic idea is:

  1. have chromosome and base position for the SNPs
  2. have a gene list with chromosome, start, end position, and gene names
  3. run the ./plink --gene-report command

You can convert the ped file to vcf using plink, input the vcf file to ANNOVAR and obtain the genes that the SNPs map to.
