    1. [EVANS] Lavinia
    2. RHB
    3. Forgot to mention in my earlier response that the name "Lavinia" repeats over and over in our Evans-Richard branch. I assume it all began with Lavinia Simpson [1811], Hugh's second wife..... So maybe that is significant. I have no idea of who her parents were, but she was said to be "an English lady of deep piety, a member of the Established Church of England." Now we suspect that our earliest Evanses were Quaker.... and the later ones were mostly Presbyterian with some Methodists thrown in for good measure...but we don't know much else about Lavinia's life before marrying into the Evans family.

    2. Is there any indication that one of the male descendants went to North Carolina? My great grandfather, Holden George Evans was born in 1844 in North Carolina, probably the western portion. He named one of his daughters, Lavinia. Mildred Evans Swanson In a message dated 10/21/2008 1:06:27 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time, [email protected] writes: Good Morning, I just sent this email to our "little" Evans list and I thought it might help to send to our "big" Evans list as well. Here is what it said: "Cousins, A phrase from the William Edgar Evans book keeps haunting me. Please pay attention to this excerpt from page 34.... "Genealogy of the Evans Family] Samuel Evans with his three sons, Richard, Samuel [and one name not remembered, - this one went to Philadelphia and became a Quaker, from him the Quaker Evans' of Warren County, Cincinnati, and Richmond, Ind., came] came from Wales to Maryland about 1720 or '30. It is said Richard and Samuel died, or were killed, in the army. Hugh, Richard's son, moved near Uniontown, Pennsylvania, then called the Redstone Country, about 1780 or '82. There Richard married Mary Pierce in 1788." ------------------ That's the quote. Now, what we are trying to do is to find out who went to Philadelphia and became a Quaker. That knowledge could lead to a whole new chapter in our understanding of this family... So, let me be a bit more specific to set the stage properly....This is the family of Richard Evans [abt 1669] and his son Samuel [30 Sep 1691] who lived in Maryland, then PA, with some members moving to WV and others moving to KY, and OH. Sources tell us: "Samuel Evans, a native of Wales, was the father of 13 children by his first wife and 11 by his second. He was living near Hagerstown, Md. when a son, Hugh, was born Oct. 7, 1730. When 30 years old Hugh Evans married Sarah Harden, who died soon after the birth of an only daughter, Sallie, in 1762. In 1763, he married Lavinia Simpson who became the mother of 6 children. He served in Capt. Fisher's Co., 7th Batt'n of Cumberland, Md. during the Revolution." Of Samuel's 24 children, we have names for about 11. So, the one who went to Philadelphia might have been among the unnamed sons, as we do have information on at least 4 of the sons. The age range of this person could have been between 1707 [date of marriage between Samuel and Sarah [1st wife] and 1768 [date of death of Samuel's second wife, Priscilla Moore] If anyone out there thinks they might be of help, please contact us, as we seem to be at a brick wall.
