Hi Teresa, Thanks for responding and for your suggestions. I have not tried overseer accounts for Hartland yet; I often wish I lived close to the North Devon Record Office and could pop in regularly to view these things in person. The large range for births definitely suggests that there were, at a minimum, two different Ann Evans giving birth in Hartland. Since the examinations for the 1796 and 1804 births both said that Ann Evans was "of Hartland" and that the child was likely to be chargeable to Hartland, at a minimum one of the Anns seems to have had right of settlement in Hartland (possibly two of them if the births were to different Anns). Hartland issued removal orders for a number of other people and I think they would have tried the same with Ann if they believed she didn't have right of settlement. The only probate I have found for these families so far was for the Charles Evans that may have been Ann Evans the elder's son, and in reviewing my research for this thread I realized that I have yet to try to request a copy. The Probate Calendar says that his estate was under 100 pounds and his wife was his sole executrix, but of course you never know what surprise might be in the probate till you review the actual probate. The reason I first posted hoping for ideas for a record I could try to locate that would list some specific detail about Ann (birth place, age, parentage, etc.) is precisely because otherwise there are so many choices. To date I haven't found any Ann Evans baptized in the neighboring parishes in the time frame the Anns were probably born, but she could have potentially come from farther away. The geographically closest I have found to date in Devon is an Ann Evans baptized in Buckland Brewer in 1752, followed by an Ann Evans baptized in Northam in 1758 and an "Ann Evens" baptized in Northam in 1762. Ann also could have come from Cornwall since Hartland is so close to it, though the Cornwall OPC site doesn't show any Ann Evans at all baptized near the border. (I first checked for Ann Evanses in the DFHS transcriptions that used to be on FindMyPast back when I was working on these families a lot a couple years ago, but in trying to double-check my work this morning they don't seem to be on FMP any more, so I've double-checked on IGI instead, meaning any Devon parishes that aren't included in IGI were missed in my double-check.) Thanks again for your ideas! Liz Loveland
