By the time she was born she had been lied about her birth heritage. Her mother had her at quite a young age and was unmarried. So, when her mother, Davina Swanson, had her, Davina's mother raised Eva and Eva's mother, Davina, as if they were sisters.
Thus, not emabarrasing the family with having a daughter who had had a baby out of wedlock.
It was not until many years later, that Eva found out the truth about her mother. Her sister was not her sister but her mother.
She married Edwin Oliver in 1917. They had three children.
