I do have an amazing memory. But how could anyone forget a Ferdinand OLIVER while going through pages and pages of Johns, Williams, and Thomases! J Kim OLIVER Anez Researching: Andrew OLIVER m. Malinda Debora RICKARD, Dec. 24, 1850 Anything about their children or his siblings or parents would be greatly appreciated.

I have too, in 1860 in Vigo, CO. Indiana.  I think he is also in 1870 there also, and 1850 in Cumberland, CO., Illinois.  Oh, also in 1855 Illinois census.  But, I can't find out anything else about him.  You have an amazing memory, if you remember someone not even in your line.

George, I found Elizabeth on a family tree in Ancestry.com. Born 1690 in Surry, VA, died 1758 in Goochland, Va, married to Thomas Murrell. Her parents are shown as William and Elizabeth Oliver.

This refers to William Oliver & Mary Kean: “Chief efau Hadjo, Mad Dog, of the Wind Tribe became Chief of the Creek Indian Nation in 1793 when he succeded Alexander McGillivray. The Creek Nation at that time consisted of the Wind Tribe who were the most elite, the Upper Creeks and the Lower Creeks. He lived in Tuckabatchee which is near present day Tallassee, AL. He signed Treatys as early as 1765 and as late as 1802. In 1929, the Albama Antropological Society placed a monument marking the Creek Indian Nation at the great Council Tree in Tuckabatchee where the Wind Tribe resided.The monument mentions Chief Efau hadjo. The monument has been moved to present day Tallassee. There is nothing now to mark Tuchabatchee. Big Woman was the daughter of Chief Mad Dog. She waqs married first to Tom Low and had a daughter, Anny Low. She then married Alexander Cornell and had 3 children, Suckey, Charles, and Hawkins. Big Woman was a full blooded Creek and I believe Alexander Cornell to be white. Alexander Cornell was the interpreter to Benjamin Hawkins, the Indian Agent as early as 1784. Anny Low first married George Goodwin, then Polly Miles. One daughter was born, Mary Lou Miles, on July 24, 1824 at Pidgeon Creek, AL. Mary Lou Miles maried James Cornell Oliver in 1837, son of William Oliver and Mary Kean. William Oliver is the 6th son of Revolutioary War Hero Dionysius Oliver. Mary Kean is the daughter of John Kean and Lucy Cornell Kean. There were 4 children: William James Oliver born 1839 Catherine Oliver, born August 5, 1844, who married Richard Burgess, son of William Burgess of Pike County (AL?) Frances Nancy Oliver, born 1845 Malinda Hawkins Oliver, born 1850 Upon the death of Oliver, Mary Lou Oliver married Richard Wingard on July 14, 1853, son of William and Ellender Wingard of Pike County (AL?). She had 3 more children with Richard Wingard: Nora Wingard who married William Curry George Franklin Wingard, born July 27, 1860, who married Lena Curry on 3 January, 1883 and had 3 children. He then married Carry Lou Moore on July 15, 1981 (1881?) and had 10 children. He was still alive in 1946. James Wingard, died as a boy. Richard Wingard died on July 27, 1862 and is buried in the Wingard Cemetery in Wingard, AL. Mary Lou Miles Wingard came to be known as “Grandma Wingard” . She had 7 children, 24 grandchildren from her Oliver children and 13 grandchildren from her Wingard children. There were great and great grandchildren also. She died on June 17, 1911” Mary ************** Recession-proof vacation ideas.

OK, I'll get it right this time. Dionysius Junior had a sister Martha born in 1773 (not 1733) who married Thomas Hancock.

It was early, before the civil war. Since Florida did not become a state until around 1840 (or so) try 1840 and try Leon County, I think I rememember that location. Sorry, I did not keep the data as it turned out it was not my line.

Sorry to interrupt, but check Florida census records. I recall seeing a Ferdinand while researching in Florida.

GreyWolf OK, the mother of Dionysius was Ann (or Mary or Mary Ann) McCarty. The sister of Dionysius was named after her mother. I have found her as Mary and as Ann. I have also found Thomas Oliver as Peter and Peter Thomas. There are just too many Peter and Thomas Olivers out there at the same time. I am assuming that Peter Thomas is the ancestor of my family based on the fact that my Thomas Oliver (b. 1749) in Orangeburg SC had a Peter Oliver who had a Glenn McCartie Oliver which points me to Peter/Thomas Oliver who married Mary or Ann or Mary Ann McCarty (also spelled McCartie). Since Dionysius had children who migrated to Edgefield, SC,it is possible that his sister and her husband also migrated to the same area. In the thirty years I have been researching, I have found that related families usually migrated rogether in groups. Maybe one person moved and others followed later. Family was very important then as back-up support. Sometimes they moved to the exact same area, sometimes to an area not too far away. Was the Hancock family in Edgefield County SC living near the Oliver family of Dionysius' descendants? It was Dionysius and his son Peter who served in the Revolutionary War and they are buried in the Stinchcombe Cemetery in Elbert County, Georiga. I believe that Peter Thomas, born around 1700 would have been too old to fight in the Revolutionary War. Dionysius Sr was born in 1735 and he was not the youngest. Look at given names. Several names repeat over and over John, Dionysius, James, McCarty (either first or middle name),Francis, Peter. My research shows that Mary Ann, sister of Dionysius married Isham Thompson. If I find anymore info I will let you know. --- On Wed, 5/13/09, [email protected] <[email protected]> wrote: > From: [email protected] <[email protected]> > Subject: Re: [OLIVER] Will of Dionysius Oliver of Edgefield Dist., SC filed 2 Oct 1815 > To: [email protected] > Date: Wednesday, May 13, 2009, 12:32 PM > I think the father of Dionysius > Oliver, Sr., was Capt.
