Tarver-Gen: Tarver Family Research http://www.tarver-genealogy.net -------------------- : TARVER FAMILY CEMETERY - BLYTHE, RICHMOND CO., GEORGIA -------------------- TARVER, Samuel [ Samuel Augustus Tarver ] 30 SEP 1795--29 JUN 1855 TARVER, F A [ Frances Augusta Vallotton ] 21 JUL 1798--24 MAR 1867 TARVER, Sally Green 16 MAR 1850--27 AUG 1850 infant daughter of L A & M E Tarver one double stone unmarked grave three unmarked graves with stones that are unreadable Location: http://geonames.usgs.gov/pls/gnis/MapServer?f_name=Tarver +Cemetery&f_state=GA&f_latlong =331923N0821158W&server=TIGER Located in training area # 31, Fort Gordan, Georgia. Fort Gordon is located near the city of Augusta and occupies a large area of Richmond County and smaller portions of McDuffie, Jefferson and Columbia Counties. The land was purchased by the military in 1940; this area was evidently settled after the Revolutionary War and before 1830. Because this is a Military Base and some of the cemeteries are located in shell impact areas and the on-going military exercises being conducted, anyone who would like to visit any cemetery needs to contact the Environmental and Natural Resources Management Office at 791-2397 or 791-2327. ------- NOTES ------- "A few years ago, my husband and I went to Georgia in search of Eugene Lafayette's parents burial place. It was a family cemetery where the family plantation was. It is now a part of Ft Gordon which is a blessing, because the Government agreed to keep up all the cemeteries that were on the land they took for a military base. It was fenced and mowed. The only graves there were Samuel's and Frances' and 3 infant slabs and a granddaughter. Samuel died in 1855 (just before the war) and Frances d. in 1867 (just after the war)." Source: Nancy The inscription for Sallie Green Tarver, d/o L A & M E Tarver, gives dates b. Mar 16 1850, d. Aug 27 1850. However, this child was living when the census taken on Sep 30, 1850, therefore the marker inscription is incorrect: Sarah G. Tarver, age 2 months.
