Even though my Dovers were still in England during the times that all of you are researching, I still enjoy reading much of what you are sending, especially the last couple of days as I have been reading about dialogues from different parts of the country and family histories and stories. I want to thank all of you for these. I was especially interested in the sing-alongs because I well remember how I loved it when my uncle who played the banjo would come home and all the aunts and uncles and any cousins who wanted to would get together at my grandma's house and have a big sing-along. They had nice voices and did a lot of harmonizing! At one such gathering they taped the singing and it is still one of my favorite tapes to listen too -- not only because it brings back such happy memories but also because most of them are gone now, including my father who's name was William Dover. A good old family name I am discovering. Thanks! Gerry Dover Osborn
