I am having such a hard time with my mail. I have sent several posts, but I'm not certain who has gotten what...... I don't thing the following reached the list. ----Sorry if it's a repeat. .........gaelcee Fannin Co. marriages 24 October, 1880, Linch T. Dover to Martha C. Morris. Joel Walker Jp- B-269 Polk Co. Tn. Marriages William Dover to Fannie Morgan, 18 March, 1897 To Dennis, regarding the Chattanooga Dovers...... There was an attorney named Robert Dover who ran for some sort of political office. Also, there is a Charlie, or Tom who also ran for something political in that area. I know he was late to my grandmother's funeral, but came to the cemetery. He was said to look like my grandfather, whom I never knew. His father and my grandfather were 1st cousins. I am trying to reach a greatgranddaughter of Samuel and Susan, who is about 87 years old. She is a granddaughter of their Tommy C. Dover through James Elbert Dover. She would have a lot of info to include who this politician was. Regarding the Cherokee thing.........besides the claim on Alantha, there is an Augusta Dover whose application # 24411 was approved. I haven't gotten a copy of the application to check out the info included there........gaelcee
