OLIVER TABLE.The Benjamin OLIVERs of most
interest to me in terms of their connection to Benjamin OLIVER
(1765-1831) of Killynure are the ones connected to the townlands
in Armagh - Ballynahonbeg, Ballyrea, Enagh, Knockagraphy, Magherry
Kilcranny and the ones
in Monaghan - Ballybay, Clontibret, Cornicarra and Laragh. |

OLIVER weavers: The occupation of weaver or draper occurs frequently enough
that it is worthy of study. It may also tie in to the family story
that the OLIVERs who were ancestors of Sir Thomas JACKSON came
from the Netherlands where they had sought refuge after fleeing
from France and that they subsequently served under King William
at the time of the Battle of the Boyne in 1690. |

Caledon Parish, Co. Tyrone Baptisms It is quite possible that
several of these Co. Tyrone OLIVER lines are related to other Ulster
OLIVERs in Co. Armagh and Co. Monaghan. Also of note is the profession
of weaver for several of the John OLIVER entries. |

OLIVERs mentioned in Deeds Registry in Dublin 1708-2000 Hopefully I am better at recording data than I am at typing. You will likely notice more typos that I have missed. Hopefully, this will still be valuable to many researchers both in Armagh, and also those who are tracing ancestry connected to OLIVERs in Ireland - warts and all. |

vote (excluding all those whose land status prohibited them from voting) as
well as poll books which showed the lists of voters and who they voted for. |

Olivers of Lislooney. There is mounting
evidence that the OLIVERs of Lislooney were closely related – at least at the 1st cousin level - in the early 1700s to the OLIVERs of Farmacaffley aka Sherranmcaghully,
Parish Of Eglish, Co. Armagh and to the OLIVERs of Tattykeel, Parish Of
Kildress, and hence to several other lines - including the OLIVERs of Killynure. I will be writing a post about the suspected links, and their implications for future research. |

Eliza Oliver's (1815-1903) handwritten history. These two pages were amongst several documents
which Christine Wright recently discovered at Gilford Castle. I first saw them on
May 7th, 2015. Based on both the handwriting and the content, they were written by Eliza Oliver (1815-1903). It is most likely that they were written
for her granddaughter Mary Menary. This is the oldest written version of Oliver
family history that I have been able to find so far. |

These are the OLIVERs who signed the 1912 covenant to indicate that they opposed Home Rule. The people who signed this covenant all wanted Ulster to remain part of
the UK. Their signatures on this document can be useful when matched with instances
of their signatures on deeds. It is interesting as much for those OLIVERs who signed as for those OLIVERs who didn't (It wasn't completely along sectarian lines). NOTE: If anyone can add to My notes, this would help me to sort out which ones are near relations to each other. Thanks. |

The only portion of the 1766 Religious Census for Co. Armagh - that
survived - was the part from Creggan Parish, some of
which is on my site. None of the pages for Co. Monaghan have survived. In
this census, the term “Protestant” included the names of men who were both
Church of Ireland and Protestant dissenters, such as Presbyterian. |

Births to mothers of OLIVER children as recorded in the Armagh & Dungannon Registries. I have compiled the information in this manner because sometimes, it is hard to see the trees for the forest (the opposite of not being able to see the forest for the trees). This approach - of following the mothers - has clarified many lines of OLIVERs for me, but there are still a few strays. I also suspect that in time that we will find out that most if not all of these OLIVERs are related to one another. |
