I haven't seen much on Mance and this and the 1900 census record is all I can find on him. I do have a note that he died in 1953, but I found no death records to support this: On September 12, 1881, Mance Macklin Dover, b. September 12, 1881, age 31, living on Black Street in Cincinnati, Ohio. He was an auto line welder (can't read his employer). His next of kin was America Dover, Chattoona, TN. He signed his name Mance Dover. He was medium height, medium build, blue eyes and brown hair. Marjorie Dover Stansel
