Oliver was in Bad Axe, Mi where my ancestry ended up for a short time in or around 1870's moving from Penatanguishene, Ontario, Canada. I have always wondered if there was a relationship between Oliver, John and William Healy. Relatives were on Mackinac Island in the the 1960's one of them was a sherif on the Island. I am a decendent of William Healy from Penatanguishene and remember traveling with my mother, Teresa Irene Healy Boisseau, to Penatang looking for our ancestry. The family story is that our ancester, John Healy, fought in the American Revolution as a Captain in the English Army running a POW camp. I found a William Healy at River Raisen POW camp in 1816 in Michigan. One thing to remember the war of 1776 and the war of 1812 were both considered Revolutionary Wars depending on if you are south or north/ USA or Canada.
