George Oliver (historian)
Rev. George Oliver (1781–1861) was an English Roman Catholic priest and a historian of the City of Exeter, Devon, England, and its environs.
==Life==
He was born at Newington, Surrey, on 9 February 1781, and was educated, first at Sedgley Park School, Staffordshire, and afterwards at Stonyhurst College. During the eleven years that he spent at Stonyhurst, Father Charles Plowden was his spiritual director, and took an interest in his literary studies. He was promoted to holy orders at Durham by Bishop William Gibson, in May 1806.
In October 1807, he was sent to the mission of the Society of Jesus at St. Nicholas, Exeter, as successor to Father Thomas Lewis. This mission he served for forty-four years, retiring from active duty on 6 October 1851. He continued, however, to reside in the priory, and occupied the same room till the day of his death.
Oliver was one of the last Catholic priests, pupils of the English Jesuits, who did not enter the Society, but remained in the service of the English province, and subject to its superiors. On 30 March 1843 he was elected an honorary member of the Historical Society of Boston, US, and on 15 September 1844 he was created D.D. by Pope Gregory XVI. On the erection of the canonical chapters in 1852, after the restoration of the hierarchy by Pope Pius IX, Oliver was appointed provost of the chapter of Plymouth, a dignity he resigned in 1857. He died at St. Nicholas mission, Exeter, on 23 March 1861, and was buried on 2 April near the high altar in his chapel.
