General Notes: Husband - Oliver Waldron
Oliver Waldron, ancestor of the name in Wiregrass Georgia and Florida, was born in Georgia in 1787 according to the 1850 Census. Oliver is possibly the son of John Waldron and Hannah Green as noted in the book "The Family of David Mikel Waldron". He was married in 1806 in Bryan County to Ann Sylvester, born 1787 in South Carolina. They had eight known children.
The earliest known residence of Oliver Waldron was Bryan County where he was married and was living during the 1820 census. He and his brother, David Waldron, moved to Ware County (now Pierce) soon after Ware was formed out of Appling County. Oliver Waldron's home was located about two miles northeastward from where Blackshear now is. About 1845 he moved to Columbia County, Florida and afterwards to Marion County, Fla. He died Nov. 5, 1867 at his home at Suwannee Shoals, Florida. His wife survived and made her home with her son, Jesse, spending her last years in Manatee County, Florida.
Mr Waldron served as Justice of the Peace, 584th district of Ware County, 1831-33, and Justice of Ware Inferior Court, 1837-1841. He served in the War of 1812 and the Indian War. He enlisted Jan, 18, 1815, in Bryan County, as a private under Capt. James Bird in Col. Pray's regiment, Georgia militia, and served until March 2, 1815, when he was honorably discharged. He served as a private in Capt. James A. Sweat's company of Ware County militia, June 9th to August 19th, 1838, in the Indian War. His widow was granted a pension for this service in 1873." Oliver also applied for Bounty Land on July 8, 1857 and received a Land Warrant No.74.942 for fourty acres of land
