Hi. We're new subscribers, David and Cynthia Stiles from Bristol. We're researching Stiles, Wyatts and Evans in Bristol, Wilts and Glos in general but we both seem to have common roots in the Evans families in Hawkesbury. We'll add the Hawkesbury Evans section to our web site in the near future. Meanwhile we're trying to pin down a marriage between my (David's) great grandmother (Alice) Rosina Evans and George Edward Parker (or it may have been Edward George). Rosina was born in Tresham, Hawkesbury in 1853 (1861 census) and was first known to be in Bristol at her daughter's birth in 1878. Cynthia's connection is Great Grandfather Eli Evans, who was born in Hawkesbury in 1844. He had moved to Wotton by the 1881 census. We think the two Evans families might connect further back, possibly originating in Minchinhampton. Any gap-filling gratefully received. ___________ Dave Stiles http://www.linkcheck.co.uk/genealogy/

Our information puts his birth at 1846. See Page 7 of our census pages on http://users.classicfm.net/doug.thompson/HWK/Census.htm His brother Edwin is dated at 1844. Doug
