I know I have a Henry but not able to put my fingers on that file , If I am thinking right Henry was a second or nick name for Richard ?
I have tried to be a accurate with scources as I could be , but if you fill there is mistakes please let me know. their is lots of research from lots of Tarver researchers and so many names the same it is a tedious family to search, ( We named our son , now 30, Sean Benjamin Tarver,) Benjamin is a popular name among Tarvers.
Hope this helps.I have lots and info on Absolom Tarver Rev.War Patiot
J. Tarver
