Hello ALL,
Here is everything I currently know about "my" elusive Jesse DAVAR. I
hope if someone else has information not here that they will share it
with me. More, I hope someone will be able to identify some
relationships with other surnames. It seems that (like many early
families) the DAVAR family can be found "near" or "with" families of
the
same (similar) surname in several locations throught the years.
Possibly related surnames are:
AUSMUS
FUGATE
HUNTER
Other surnames are listed with their DAVAR spouse, below.
Please let me know if you have ANY information about these families and
how they relate to the DAVAR / DEVER family. Marriages <g>, Land
Records, Court Records, Burials, Church Records, anything.... If you
would please send the data and (if you have it) source, I will return a
compilation of everything shared to everyone who shares. (Word procesors
"cut 'n paste" features are a gift from the heavens above <g-g-g>)
Hope to hear from ya'll,
Terri Rene
