Tax lists-Deeds & Misc. Marriages & Trivia Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit - In a library ref. book "Early Ga. Tax Lists" found only 3 Dover listings. John Dover - Franklin Co. Ga. 163 -Tax list 1819 - Tax 1819 George Dovers -Franklin Co. Ga.-035-Tax list 1818- Tax 1818 John Dovers -Franklin Co. Ga. -073 -Tax list 1818- Tax 1818. I know that alot of people think that when they see D O V E R S that think that the S is a mistake, but I found a cemetery with a lot of DOVERS, - with the S. I am thinking that perhaps the two above "Johns" have been getting mixed up within our research? I am convinced that it is a very separate family. Misc. Habersham Co.
