No definitive records for Charlotta can be located. Some researchers suggest she was the daughter of William Dathie Paxton and Charlotte Paxton (no data for them given). There is one discrepancy concerning her son, Pleasant H Oliver. It is well established he was her son. However, upon his death in 1874, he states he was 64 years old, meaning he was born about 1810. Previous research suggested he was born about 1801. Charlotta's approximate death of 1807 is based on her husband, Abraham Oliver, marrying Rosanna Grant in 1807 and having more children. The discrepancy generated by Pleasant cannot be reconciled easily.
