Welcome to Dover ...

So far, we found very little information about Dover. The little that we've found leads us believe that the community is historic.<1>

We've added Dover to our Gazetteer with the hope that we can develop more information. We would especially like to find the location of Dover - knowing its coordinates, we can explore things like its relationship to neighboring communities, nearby cemeteries, etc. If you can help us with Dover, please Contact Us.

While we don't have the exact location of Dover , we believe that it would have been located within present day Mineral County<2>.

Time Zone: The area where Dover was located is in the Pacific Time Zone (PST/PDT) and observes daylight saving time

The Area Code where Dover was located: 775

Adding Dover to Our Gazetteer ...

As we work on our Gazetteer, we occasionally find mention of a community that is new to us. When we find such a community, we add it to our Gazetteer with the hope of adding more information in the future.

The earliest source (so far) we've referenced which mentioned Dover was in the book titled SPV's Comprehensive Railroad Atlas of North America - California & Nevada.

Footnotes ...

<1>We use the term 'Historic' broadly and it generally means that the community no longer exists. However, it can also mean that the community might still exist, but was significantly larger or had a more 'official' existence in the past than it does now. Unfortunately our sources of data have proven to be unreliable. If you can provide us with more specific information about Dover, please let us know so that we can improve our accuracy.
