The Olivers and the Kendalls intermarried for several generations. Anna Kendall is mentioned in several history books as a strong, capable woman of her time. While Jonathan was away at war, it was Anna who kept a loaded rifle by her side at all times, defending the homestead against marauding Indians. It is also written that she could shoot the rifle as well as any man.

James Oliver and Hannah _______?. Unfortunately, not much is known yet about James and Hannah. He was a selectman of Athol in 1772 and 1774. Some history books claim that he left Athol to other parts, but there are plenty of records that verify they remained in Athol for a lot of years. In 1775 he was a succesful bidder for care of an orphan, Thomas Woods, age 14. In 1769 Hannah & James presented for baptism 2 negro servants. James died before his father's will was executed and Hannah became Executrix of the estate. His will in 1783 names only his beloved wife Hannah as heir, to do with his estate as she sees fit. Lt. James Oliver is listed as a Revoltionary War soldier, serving under Captain John Oliver's Co. and Col. Nathan Sparhawk's regiment. Children of James and Hannah, if there were any, are unknown at this time.
