Not sure if I am doing this correctly but there is an inaccuracy in the William Oliver family as follows:

  William's youngest daughter is listed as:  ANdra Laura Whitney.  She changed her own name to ARdra Laura and was known in the family henceforth as ARdra.  Aunt Ardra was quite a romantic young lady and was taken by the fact that she had both made up her own name and best of all, could spell it both ways.  She was born Bessie Laura and I believe I have seen a census record to that end  Will try to find it.
