My great-grandmother was Mary Angel who was married first to a Mr. Oliver, then to my gr-gr-grandfather, Daniel Taylor. in Franklin Co, TN. Her parents were Wash(ington) Angel and Mary Riley. Mary Riley and her father, Looney Riley are both listed in Roane county, but I can't find a direct connection. Looney's father, Samuel, supposedly had something to do with the formation of Roane county. I was hoping to find some Olivers to check on. In an e-mail from Roane Co. list, I find a mention of a Richard OLIVER, who was appointed to command a militia unit. Also, I'm wondering about the history or founding of Oliver Springs. Could this place have been named for an Oliver family that might be connected to Mary? Thanks for any help you can give me. sandra
