NOTE: This is the first Ohaver to be found in any records so far. He is thought to have been a physician named Joseph Christopher Ohaver by some branches of the Ohaver Family. In every record found so far he is Christopher Ohaver with no "J" or any reference to Joseph. Also in the tax lists of early Virginia physicians were to be enumerated and noted and there is no such notation in Christopher's record. There is no note of any other physicians in the records in his area of Virginia either.
