Samuel GOVER
1. Marriage record taken from book in SLC Family History Library (975.2k28a) of West River & Clifts Monthly meetings records. This book shows a marriage of Samuel Gover and Elizabeth Roberts on 12 May 1706. 2. Clifts Monthly Meeting (Reg) 1662-1782 (M545) p. 14 a-g Deaths 29, Births 28 Quaker doc. From the State of Md., Hall of Rec. at Annapolis Md. 3. Deer Creek MM (Marriages) 1730-1889 (M609) p.26. 4. Maryland Calendar of Wills p. 279 showing death of Samuel on 13 Dec 1743, 13 Oct 1744. This will also shows his sons as Samuel, Ephraham, Richard, Philip (5th son). This shows his daughters as Elizabeth Lee, Cassandra Willson, Priscilla Willson. The will also shows his brother as Ephraham. I have his son as Robert not Richard. I assume this is a mistake. I also assume his son Benjamin and daughter Rachell predeceased their father.
