In 2019, the Crow Family Papers Collection was donated to the Stewart County Archives by a long-time friend of the family. The items were recovered from the house of the late Dr. Charles Henry Crow in 2015 by his nephew, and sent back to Dover for donation in 2019. Dr. Charles Henry Crow (1926-2015) was the son of Dr. Henry L. and Aline (Evans) Crow of Dover. He was a 1944 graduate of Dover High School, a World War II veteran who was decorated with a Purple Heart, and for many years a dentist in Nashville and Dover. Among the papers of this collection is a series of newspaper articles mentioning Dr. Crow’s heroics as a 5-year-old in 1931, when he and a friend helped save the life of a playmate who had slipped into deep water while wading in the Cumberland River at Dover.
