Did you get a reply to your question? I do know that Arvilla was a popular name in the 1800's. My grandmother was born in early 1800 but her last name was Ingalls and that was her name and i found it in many names when looking through birth records in Pittsfield. If you don't get an answer, i can look it up for you at the Pittsfield Library the next time i go up. Let me know.
