Hi Annie Abraham Oliver was the Minister of Bethesda Chapel in Llanddewi Brefi, not Bethelhem, I'm sure this is a typing error on your part Annie as there isn't a Bethelhem Chapel in Llanddewi Brefi. Abraham Oliver was a very much admired Minister in the village. My Great Grandfather named his youngest child after him.

I have seen Mr. Porter's book on that family. There was another Oliver family north by Devils Bridge. There were two brothers, Abraham and David - Abraham was the minister at Bethelhem in Llanddewi Brefi and David was a minister at Aberbanc. Both are related to me. But I'm not apparently related to the ones in Strata Florida.
