William was born circa 1893 at Parkes, New South Wales. Although it can't be certain, it seems William was born from an indiscretion between his father, just newly married to another woman, and Martha, a twenty one year-old..1 He was the son of William Donald Olliver and Martha L. Ashpole.1

William Donald Olliver was taken to court by Martha L. Ashpole in July 1898 (which was likely to be just after her release from prison if she served her full sentence) and he ordered to pay 5 shillings a week for 'affiliation' - likely as a support for their child William, as Williams paternity was proved during the trial.2 He presumably lived with his parents at 2194 Varden Street, in Kalgoorlie, Western Australia, in 1910.3
