Sherry, I am a descendant of Francis Johnson Dover thru his son Anderson Dover,his son Larkin Calloway Dover,his son Robert Lewis Dover,his son Walter Lee Dover.My father is Virgil,fourth child of Walter. I have some info about that if I can find the right book. I have beendoing research off and on for 10 years. My husband Harold Tolbert passed away Sept 2007 and I care for my mother full time and it is hard to find time to do all that it takes to do research and I find it interesting. John Dover from England came over to U.S in late 1600's and is father of Francis J.Dover. Look on the Miller Gillespie ancestry.com site and they have a copy of Francis Johnson Dover signature on a will. I have more info on Dovers than I do Cross.
