Marcus O Shivers on page 165 list William Henry Shivers and states wife as Dora Robinson. Previous research has not revealed this last name of wife, yet Marcus's book states it. Marcus also listed as stated by his source that sisters and brothers of William Henry Shivers named Shara,Clara,Doad,Susie,Alex which only matches Jonas Shivers 2nd wife had a Alex Shivers and the Shara and Doad seem to be nicknames and so far have not aligned with any of Jonas's lists of chidren from either marriage. further research on Jonas Shivers children needs to be done again.
