No other record of or reference to this child Ada has been found, and the 1910 Census clearly states that Ivah had only the three children listed, namely Ortha, Rella & Grant. Although we cannot explain how it came about, especially in view of the different name and one-day difference, it is considered that the entry of Ada was a clerical error that pertained to the birth of Rella.), BR Bk 3, p. 98.
