He married Emily White, daughter of Wingfield White, on 27 December 1866 at St Mary's, Nantwich, Cheshire, and the ceremony was witnessed by Charles Morris and Martha Platt; At the time of the marriage Oliver was a mechanic living in Coppenhall, and Emily was living in Nantwich. At the time of his daughter Emily's birth in 1875 the family lived at 56 Alton Street, Monks Coppenhall and Oliver was a Forgeman. He appeared on the 1881 Census in 26 Alton Street, Monks Coppenhall, Crewe, Cheshire, and Emily White, Ada Mary Morris, Agnes Morris, Arthur Morris, Oliver Morris, Clement Morris, Esther Ann Morris and William Henry Morris were living in the same household; The head of household, Oliver was described as a forgeman (iron), and Emily was described as a British Subject born East Indies. Early in 1885 the Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway Company started the building of the Horwich Locomotive Works. There were several large buildings on the site , the largest being the erecting shops which was 1520 feet in length. Six and a half miles of narrow guage railway serviced the site and some of the large workshops were lit by electricity, something of an innovation at the time.
By November 1886 the first locomotives arived for repair, the office block was ready for use in 1887 and in 1892 the works was in full operation. The first locomotive to be built was a 2-4-2 tank engine number 1008, completed in February 1889.
A lot of men came from the company workshops at Miles Platting and Bury. The first workmen arrived in November 1886. There were seventeen of them and during the early months of 1887 around twenty a week were taking up work in Horwich, some travelling back to Manchester at the weekends to their families. By mid February 200 employees had taken employment at the new works, and by 1894 there were 3000 men employed there. It appears Oliver was a forge foreman at the works and three of his sons were working there in 1891. He may also have been a foreman wheelwright at the works at some time. Winifred Morris (#519), his gt granddaughter wites in 2006 - "I remember that when I was still at Primary School I had piano lessons with a lady in Melbourne Grove and she insisted on presenting me to her father as the great-granddaughter of Oliver Morris whom he remembered living in the same road. According to my mother he was well known because he was such a striking figure- well over 6 ft and weighing 20 stone but I can't think she met him unless he lived to be a very old man." He appeared on the 1891 Census in 192 Chorley New Road, Horwich, Bolton, Lancashire, and Emily White, Arthur Morris, Oliver Morris, Clement Morris, Esther Ann Morris and William Henry Morris were living in the same household; The head of household, Oliver was described as a forge foreman. Arthur, Oliver and Clement were also described as forgemen. Also lodging in the household was another forgeman, Joseph Webb aged 16 years. He is shown in a number of local Bolton Directories as living at 192 Chorley New Road until 1898. He appears in a number of Bolton directories between 1902 and 1907 describing himself as a forge foreman and living at 22 Melbourne Grove, Horwich. He appeared on the 1901 Census in , Bolton, Lancashire, , and Clement Morris, Fanny (?), William Henry Morris, Mary Sale and Clement Morris were living in the same household; Oliver was described as Forge Foreman, Clement as Railway Guard and William as Steam Engine Maker - Fitter. Another grandson of Oliver was in the household - William 1 year born in Horwich but it is not clear who the parents are. A Mrs Winstanley of Horwich ( born c 1911 ) writes in a letter in 1993 that her godmother was Ada Morris ( later Rodgers ), Oliver's daughter. She says that Oliver lived with Ada, and she remembers him giving her buttered brazil nut toffee and saying ' suck it don't crunch it.' Mrs Winstanley lived at 23 Fairburn St and Ada lived at 22. He died after 1911.
