Hi Shane Just to say your instructions for posting on the message board were very helpful, even to a computer novice like me. I congratulate you on getting the website up and running. A lot of hard work obviously. I'm sure many Oliver researchers will be very interested. I have told a few of my contacts about it. As you know, my direct line is through Solomon Oliver and as yet I haven't found many others descended through this line. Perhaps your website will remedy this. I'll keep checking back for latest updates. Meanwhile keep up the good work. Liz
What a fantastic job you've done on this site. I'm sure all the Oliver descendants will find it very interesting and useful in researching their family trees.

My name is Shane Bywaters and I am researching my Oliver Family History.
I have created this website to help with this and find others interested in the Olivers, and hopefully find many new family relatives.
My link into the Oliver family is as follows (my grandmother was an Oliver):
1974 Shane Bywaters 1952 Kevin Bywaters 1928 Joyce Oliver 1890 Frank Oliver 1851 Edward Oliver 1817 Joseph Oliver 1784 Jesse Oliver 1751 John Oliver 1727 William Oliver 1699 John Oliver
The Oliver names goes back over 300 years in Oxfordshire and I still live in Oxfordshire today.
Hope to hear from my more interested in this family.
