Charles Silver Oliver

Charles Silver Oliver (c. 1765–70 – 10 October 1817) was an Irish landowner, the son of Silver Oliver, Member of Parliament for Kilmallock.[1]

Charles Silver Oliver was married on 3 June 1805 to Maria Elizabeth, daughter of Abraham Morris. He was Sheriff of County Limerick in 1791, Sovereign (Irish office of Chief of a municipal government) of Kilmallock from 1796 to 1800, and Member of Parliament for Kilmallock from 1798 until he was appointed Escheator of Munster on 15 May 1799.[citation needed]

Through Lord Clare's influence, Oliver represented County Limerick in the United Kingdom House of Commons from 1802 to 1806, though he was not a frequent attender.[2]

In the Wallace family account[3] of the death of Irish patriot Staker Wallace in 1798 in Kilfinnane, Charles Silver Oliver is portrayed as the villain of the piece. Subsequent research by Mannix Joyce[4] indicates disagreements within the Protestant Ascendancy as to the severity of Olivers treatment of Wallace. Wallace was publicly flogged and later executed in Kilfinnane charged with the crime of raising a subscription for the assassination[5] of Charles Silver Oliver.
