Clarke Publishing Company, Chicago – Louisville, 1928. pp 134-5. Allen Co. ROBERT S. OLIVER, a veteran of the World war, is engaged in the practice of law at Scottsville and owes his progress to a self-reliant nature, tenacity of purpose and a natural aptitude for the legal profession. He was born February 11, 1893, in Allen county, Kentucky, and is a son of Thomas Crittenden and Nannie (Mayhew) Oliver, natives of the same county. His mother was born October 20, 1871, and died June 29, 193. She was a daughter of Aaron Shelby and Martha Elizabeth (Stinson) Mayhew, the latter of whom was born in Macon county, Tennessee, in 1840 and passed away in Simpson county, Kentucky, in 1906. Mr. Mayhew was born in Simpson county in 1841 and there spent his life, responding to the final summons in 1903. Thomas C. Oliver was born October 21, 1862, in Allen county, Kentucky, and followed the occupation of farming for many years but is now living retired in Scottsville. He is a member of the Methodist Episcopal church and an adherent of the republican party. His parents were William Robert and Rebecca (Walker) Oliver, of whom the latter was born in Monroe county, Kentucky, in 1830, and died in Allen county in 1920. William R. Oliver was a lifelong resident of Allen county and gave his political support to the republican party, while his religious views were in accord with the Methodist Episcopal church. He was born in 1831 and passed away on his homestead in 1915. Robert S. Oliver attended the public schools of his native county and is largely self-educated. He took a correspondence course in law, diligently applying himself to his studies, and on January 18, 1922, was admitted to the bar. He located in Scottsville and has since practiced alone. As an attorney he is sound, clear-minded and well trained, gifted with keen powers of perception and deduction, and his arguments are forceful, logical and always to the point. He wins a large percentage of his cases and his clientele is steadily increasing. Mr. Oliver was married May 14, 1921, in Gallatin, Tennessee, to Miss Huie Pearl Brashear, a daughter of Marvin Alonzo and Susie (Bart) Kesley Brashear, natives of Allen county, Kentucky, and residents of Scottsville. The father is a retired farmer and a member of the Methodist Episcopal church, while his political allegiance is given to the republican party. Mrs. Oliver was born March 16, 1905, and received her education in the public schools of Allen county. She is a member of the Methodist Episcopal church. Mr. Oliver is not a member of any church, but is greatly interested in religious views, and his political opinions are in accord with the platform and principles of the republican party. On September 18, 1917, he entered the service of his country and was in training at Camp Taylor near Louisville for a month. He was stationed at Camp Shelby, near Hattiesburg, Mississippi, for ten months and went overseas with the One Hundred and Thirteenth Engineers. He was a good soldier, never faltering in the performance of his duties, and at Camp Taylor was honorably discharged June 26, 1919. Studious by nature, he is constantly broadening his knowledge of legal science and his honesty, industry and strength of character are well known to the citizens of Scottsville, who entertain for him high regard.
