Received this today from a Sparks cousin. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Date: 2/10/99 10:05:45 AM Pacific Standard Time To: RHollis123@aol.com Hi, Rosemary! I was looking through some pages I copied from the book, DOUGLAS COUNTY GEORGIA WHO WAS WHO, VOL. 1 and noticed some Dover info on one of the pages. Actually I also copied the index and I now see there were 3 pages that had Dover info but only one of the pages I copied had any on it. ( Some of my Carroll Co. GA relatives ended up over in Douglas Co. when it was created from Carroll Co. GA in 1870.) Just in case you don't have it, I thought I would send it to you. DOUGLAS COUNTY GEORGIA, WHO WAS WHO, VOL. 1 by Joe Baggett p.83: "DOVER. J.H. , 1857-1942, is buried at Powell Chapel Cemetary with wife Julia, 1872-1895. In 1900, John Dover, widower, lived in the Fairplay district of Douglas Co. with daughter Myrtie L. born 1892, and sister Julia a., born 1869. Their brother Frank Dover, born 1856, lived near Bill Arp in 1880 with wife Polly and son Samuel. John, Julia, and Frank were children of Sarah Ann Dover, born about 1827, her parents born in Virginia (maiden name Shackelford) whose husband Samuel G., born in SC in 1829, died in a Chattanooga hospital of measles in November or December of 1862 serving in a Carroll Co. unit in the Civil War. Sarah lived near Fairplay, filing a Confederate widow's pension in 1919." Hope this helps out. By the way, I noticed a lot of Dover names when I was researching in Cherokee Co. TX lately. Take care.
