Notes for Charles OLIVER
Hudson and Mohawk Valley Families, Cuyler Reynolds: Page 1374: Careful research fails to establish a connection between the Olivers of New York and the New England family of Thomas Oliver, 1631. Reynolds went on to mention the will of Charles and the fact that Charles named his four children in that will, but he ignored the fact that none of the children was named Richard, which ruled out the fact that Richard was a son of Charles.
Abstracts of Wills Vol II 1708-1728
