Sarver (Surber, Sarber, Sarvour) Family

Submitted by Theda Pond Womack
1425 Wrights Lane
Gallatin, TN 37066

It is believed that the Casper SARVER of Botetourt Co., VA was the sameperson as the Casper SURBER who was born 5 March 1719, married to BarbaraMERK on 14 March 1741, left to the American Colonies from OberwenigenSwitzerland on 18 April 1741. They possibly lived in PA before appearingin VA 1779.

Early settlers in Botetourt County, VA included Gasper, Henry and JohnSARVER who owned land on Craigs' Creek in the 1770's, 80's and 1790's.

Casper SARVER died in Botetourt Co., VA and left will probated inFebruary 1782. He left personal property to wife Elizabeth and dividedland between sons, Henry and Casper. To his son John he left "my stilland still vessels and Bible." The will of his widow, Elizabeth SARVER,who was evidently a second wife, in 1787 left all of her property toJulia WEBB, Sr.

Henry Sarver, son of Casper, was born in 1742. He was in Botetourt Co.,VA in the 1780's, in Orange Co., NC in 1805 and moved to Sumner Co., TNin 1806. His wife was Thamer HALLE whom his descendants say was fromAlsace-Lorraine. She was born 1758, died 1817 and was buried in OldFountain Head cemetery in Sumner Co., TN. Henry died 14 Dec. 1827 and wasburied in same cemetery as were five of their seven children. One sonmoved to Green Co., Indiana and a daughter moved to Iowa. Many of theirchildren and grandchildren were active members of the Fountain HeadMethodist Church.

Casper SARVER, Jr. was born ca. 1743, was married 21 Feb. 1780 inBotetourt Co., VA to Susanna MILLER. When he died in Botetourt Co., VA in1828, his heirs were living in Giles County and Botetourt County.

My fourth great grandfather, John SARVER, son of Casper SARVER, was bornca. 1744/45. He lived in Botetourt Co., VA before moving to SumnerCounty, TN where he bought land in March 1808. His wife's name is unknownbut she was living in 1830 when census shows 1 male 80 - 90, 1 female 70- 80, 8 slaves. In 1840 he is shown as 1 male "100 and upwards" with 17slaves.

Public records show that John was still living in Feb. 1842 but is notfound in 1850. His great grandson, "Mr. Alf" SARVER (1852 - 1948) told methat John was German and never learned to speak English well. He saidJohn died at age 105 from drinking dye which he thought was whisky.Another source says he died at age 106.

John SARVER's seven children were:

1. Samuel SARVER, Sr. who was first married in 1791 to Mary ROWE and hadsix children. In 1813 still in Botetourt Co., VA he married Polly TRACY.In 1842 he lived in Giles Co., VA. His six children lived in Texas, VA,Missouri and two came to Sumner Co., TN. His youngest son, JeremiahSARVER, Jr. was born 1805, married Julia TILLER in 1825 in Giles Co., VA.They moved to Sumner County, TN in 1842 where he died 12 April 1881. Heowned a store at Brackintown and was called "Virginia Jerry". He wasdesignated Jr. to distinguish him from his uncle, called Jeremiah, Sr.Jeremiah Jr. and Julia had 13 children, several of whom stayed in SumnerCounty and some moved to Ill.

2. John SARVER, Jr. born 21 Feb. 1772, married to Mary SMITH in BotetourtCo., VA 10 June 1797, died in Allen Co., KY 21 Jan. 1848. Mary born 25Aug. 1779, died after 1860. They had 10 children.

3. My third great grandmother, Elizabeth SARVER, was born ca. 1775married 14 June 1796 in Botetourt Co., VA to Jeremiah BELL. They had fourdaughters born in VA and a son Patton BELL born 9 October 1808 in SumnerCounty. Jeremiah BELL died between Nov. 1818 and the 1820 census. Theymoved here to Sumner Co., TN with her parents and siblings.

4. Quinton SARVER lived in Sumner County, TN, where in 1832 he wasappointed a constable. He died 1833, brother Jeremiah was administrator.

5. Mary "Polly" SARVER born 1785, died 1869. She was unmarried butadopted a daughter Isabella, who married James B. MEADOR. In 1850 Marylived with them.

6. Jeremiah SARVER, Sr. was born 3 Oct. 1788 in VA married 7 Nov. 1810 inSumner Co., TN to Margaret Ann "Peggy" OSBURN. They had only one childwho lived to maturity, Alfred Gillespie SARVER, Sr., born 20 April 1814married in 1834 to Adeline F. McKENDREE. Adeline died in the 1840's andin 1850, Jeremiah was married to Henrietta when he was 63, Henrietta wasonly 24. 1860 census shows Jeremiah 73, Henrietta 35. He died 13 Sept.1867 and was buried in cemetery on farm later owned by his grandson,Alfred G. SARVER, Jr. "Mr. Alf" was born in 1852 and still lived in thehouse which he was born when I visited him in 1946 or 47.

MARRIAGE: Bondsman, Daniel Melton

per Tim/Aimee was baptised Jan 1823
OBITUARY: Written by her husband Meredith Hodges and appeared in theBaptist Watchman, July 1877. "My dear wife, Catherine, died the 28thinst. after eight days sickness. She was the youngest daughter of Henry& Thamer Sarver. She was born May 11, 1801. We were married Jan. 10,1819. She obtained a hope in Christ January, 1823, and was baptized inthe fellowship of the Primitive Baptist, and remained a consistant andorderly member of same until her death. She was the mother of sevenchildren, six of them living and one dead. I think no man ever had abetter companion. But God has seen proper to remove her from the churchmilitant to the church triumphant and I try to be reconciled as much as Ican but deeply feel the loss. M. Hodges, Fountain Head Tenn. July 30,1877."
