Sylvia's name was really Sylva

While talking to Betty Ruth, Uncle Everett's oldest daughter, she let me know that Grandma Sylvia's name was really Sylva. She said Uncle Everett always corrected her when she called her Sylvia. It is Sylva. It seems there was a song about Sylvia. Perhaps she liked Sylvia better or it was easier to go by Sylvia. If anyone wants to send for her birth certificate in Sisterville, Tyler County, West Virginia it could be verified she is Sylva.
