Descendants of Richard Oliver (1778-1855), who was born somewhere in the parish of Llanfihangel-Y-Creuddyn in Cardiganshire, Wales. He married Elizabeth Evans (1774-1844) at Gwnnws on Dec. 16, 1803. They had at least twelve children, who were all born in Wales. Three of their children: Sarah (1807-1852), William (ca. 1814-1872), and Lewis (ca. 1817-1886) immigrated to America. Lewis, the ancestor of the author, and Sarah Oliver Jones came in 1849 to the port of Milwaukee, Wisc., and William Oliver in 1950 to the port of Buffalo, New York. All three settled in Wisconsin. Descendants live in Wisconsin, Oregon, California, Arizona, Florida, Canada, Wales, England and elsewhere.
