In the 1820 Census for Ga> Francis Dover is in Habersham Co. >Thomas Dover is in Glynn Co.[ref. also to his wifes obit.sent earlier-noting her death on 6-26-1829 at Dover Hall GlynnCo.He apparently stays there. His 1845 will is proved in Glynn Co.] > William Dover is in Jones Co. There is an EP Dover in the Spartanburg 1850 census. FROM BOOK A -Court of Ordinary County of Rabun Bailey Dover is in Rabun County apparently as a Judge/juror? "May term 1837/ june 20, 1837/Aug. term 1837/oct. term 1837/april term 1838/july term 1838/sept term 1838/nove. term 1838/Dec. term 1838/feb. term 1839/april term 1839 I would have to check the dates of the Alamo, but Shaird Dover is on the 1870 Rabun Co. Census as age 35/born Ga. Isn't that before this time? Maybe not. Also, please note that the 1830 York Co. Census has both a Zepheniah JR AND SR. Does anybody have Polk Co. Tennesse 1870 census or info from there after 1860? Or Murray Co. Ga. 1860 census? I don't know how I've missed those. Specifically for Samuel Dover/Susan Campbell In addition to Dennis's recent request for a roll call, I was thinking that maybe we could just send out a list to include our connecting DIRECT line surnames. Maybe we can share some research energy there as well? I am going to try and work up a time line of events from Colonial times to 1900 or so and place a flow of the Dovers within it. We seem to have a bunch of gaps. Naturally, there weren't so many people in what was then wilderness. Georgia was created from SC In 1751 there were "1,900 white settlers and 400 blacks" in Georgia.During the next 22 years this 2,300 population increased to 33,000. The province in 1757 was very poor. There were not 10 men who were worth L500 each. (From the Fledging Province/Harold E. Davis-1976) Wow, this is fun!!------------gaelcee ______________________________ - ----------------------------
