Oliver, also known as Ollie to his wife Corrine, was an innkeeper who resided within the Davenport Homestead during the American Revolution. He and Corrine provided the community with alcoholic beverages and cooked food, which could later be sold or crafted to raise income.
Oliver and his wife came to be introduced to the Assassin Connor after they had brought a wagon of ale to the Homestead, after they had been evicted from their inn at Boston. On the recommendation of the couple by the other fellow residents, who were busy enjoying themselves due to the alcohol and good company, Connor agreed to put forth the money for the construction of a tavern on the Homestead, officially welcoming Oliver and Corrine to stay.
As they settled into the rural community, the couple revealed that they were faring very well, between the income received from the sailors from the Aquila, the residents of the Homestead, and the travelers passing through. Oliver confided in Connor that he had been frightened after having been ousted from his former home, but explained that the Lord "works in strange ways," which ultimately allowed him to arrive on the Homestead.
The tavern would later attract a weary traveler by the name of Timothy, who revealed himself to hail from London, but assured those present that he was not a colleague of the King's, but merely a pastor wishing to preach the word of God to the colonial settlers. During this time, Timothy requested bed and board from Oliver and Corrine, who heartily agreed.
In order to support the pastor, who wished for a church to lead his flock, Connor contributed the money for it to be built. This pleased the innkeepers especially, as Corrine revealed to Connor that both Oliver and her had been missing their Sunday Mass, and that Timothy's arrival had suited them greatly.
