[1] Joseph OLIVER of Kennedies in Co Armagh Gent. This Joseph OLIVER was probably a son of William OLIVER – probably of Farmacaflley and brother of David, William, Benjamin & Elizabeth OLIVER. He was born 11 Feb 1726/27 probably at Ballyrea, Co. Armagh and died Bet. 1794 - 1796 in Ballynahonebeg, Co. Armagh. He probably married Jane OATS in 1764, the daughter of Thomas OATS. After his death, his three children, John, Mary & Elizabeth, rented his property at Ballinahonebeg to John SCOTT. That seemed to be part of a continued winding down of assets. [2] The townland of the Kennedies is on the northeastern border of Ballynahonebeg and is part of the land now occupied by the town of Milford. The road to Monaghan runs through it. On its northern border, is the townland of Tullymore (where other OLIVERs lived). All these townlands had a significant number of OLIVER-related leases connected to them and also had connections to bleachworks and mills (which given the number of OLIVERs who were described as “drapers” is significant). I am guessing that the 97 acres would be north of the road to Monaghan. [3] Jhn HUGGINS of Glenart in the County of Tyrone Gent. Jhn HUGGINS (AKA HIGGINS) of Glenart in the County of Tyrone Gent. Monaghan. NOTE: I do not know of any family connection, but in 1742, an Ann OLIVER married a Luke HIGGINS. SOURCE: National Archives Marriage Index. [4] Glenart in the County of Tyrone. Possibly Glenarb, Parish of Aghaloo, Co. Tyrone. [5] Enough AKA Enagh, Parish of Lisnadill is a townland adjacent to the Kennedies. It is also a townland where OLIVERs held leases up till the late 1800s. [6] John Burges of Armagh Gent [7] Thomas IRWIN of Caledon in the Co of Tyrone Gent. NOTE: In 1829, a Mary OLIVER married a Robert IRWIN SOURCE: Index of Marriages at NA. 8] Robert LIVINGSTON
