Robert and Julia Ann's son, James, is living two families down from them. He is present in the household of Julia Ann's relatives, Lewis Oliver and his wife Catherine. From the ages of James (1) and his brother John (1) I have always thought they were twins and maybe too much to take care of. But, later I found that their ages differed by about 3 years. To this day, I don't know which one is accurate. It has been suggested that since Catherine Oliver also had a 1 year old that perhaps she was a "wet nurse" to James. I suppose we'll never know, but I wanted to make a note that James was in the Oliver household in 1850 LaGrange, IN.
