Oliver Bond was an Irish revolutionary, one of the leaders of the Society of United Irishmen in the end of 18th century, which has the objective of ending British rule over Ireland and founding an independent Irish republic.
He was born in the parish of St. Audoen, and was elected Minister's Churchwarden of the church in 1787.
In 1797 he was elected into the Secret Revolutionary Directory, but due to one conspirator's betrayal he was arrested at his own house on 12 March and soon died in confinement.[1]
