Research Notes

It should be noted that Reliques incorrectly links this family through William Reeves to Moses Rives.

There isn't a child listed on the 1810 census with Will Reeves in Lancaster Co., SC that fits Elizabeth. However, the 1850 census indicates she was born c1807.

According to information submitted to Rootsweb: "The Oliver Cemetery is located approx. a tenth mile outside the west South Carthage City Limits on Lebanon Rd. (Hwy 70N). It is located on the old Rogers Conditt farm on a knoll next to highway." The only stone found was that of Felix Oliver. A cemetery book lists the gave of Elizabeth Oliver (Mar 1807- 6 Oct 1856) as well.
