Marriage record of Cass, Illinois.

1850 census of Cass, Illinois page 41 shows: C. H. and Lydia OLIVER and children: Wm., Chas , Morris, Brierly, Edward.

Illinois: History of Cass County, Illinois, ed. William Henry Perrin. O. L. Baskin + Co. His torical Publishers, Chicago, 1882. Cass County. EDWARD T. OLIVER, banker, Virginia; was born in the city of Virginia, Cass County, April 23 , 1849. His father, Charles Oliver, was one of the pioneers of Cass County, and in the yea r 1835, in company with Dr. Hall, came to Virginia. Dr. Hall was one of the first merchant s of Virginia, and Charles Oliver was for a time his clerk, and in time following entered th e mercantile business for himself, in which he continued with success until his death, whic h occurred Sept. 5, 187, he at that time being sixty-three years of age. He married Lydia An n Job, second child of Archibald and Jane (Brierly) Job, one of the earliest settlers of Sout hern Illinois. Mr. and Mrs. Oliver had five sons and one daughter, viz.: William A., Charle s R., Morrison J., Rudolph B., Edward T., and Harriet, deceased, at two years of age. Thus it will be seen, that Edward T. was the fifth son. He received a thoroug h common school education, and gained a thorough and practical business experience while i n the employ of his father as salesman in his store. In 1866 he entered the Farmer's Nationa l Bank, as a book-keeper. In 1872, the management of this house practically had a change, an d as Mr. Oliver's position in the concern was wanted by another, he was retired. His abilit y as a rising young business man was very generally recognized in business circles, and his t alents found a ready market, as he was immediately called to assume a more responsible position in the wel l known banking firm of Petefish, Skiles + Co. Since his connection with this institution, h e has been the cashier, and a partner in the business. Oct. 20, 1870, Mr. Oliver married Mis s Maggie S. Vance, daughter of Samuel S. and Martha (Stevenson) Vance. Mr. Vance was one o f the old settlers of Morgan County. He died in 1868. They have four children, viz.: Edwar d C., Bertha L., George W., and Rena, who died in 1873, when three months old. Mr. and Mrs . Oliver are, since 1874, members of the Presbyterian Church of Virginia. Mr. Oliver is regarded as one o f the most substantial and enterprising business men of this city; is alive to any and all bu siness enterprises tending to the prosperity of his town, or the general public good. He wa s active as a member of the City Council, when it authorized the building of their present co mmodious court-house, and afterward became a member of the Building Committee. A sketch of t he banking house of Petefish, Skiles + Co., with which Mr. Oliver is connected, appears elsew here in this volume.
