Like my great grandfather was Enoch South Evans b. (means born in) 1845, Greene Co., PA. He was married to Ada Pennington. That will give us some kind of a hint on what part of the Evans you are looking for and we can help you do your searching. You may contact me at ladytxlove@yahoo.com if you have any more questions and Good luck to you. Jan Evans Freeman Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Hi Demi! ?The best place to start is?to list yourself, your parents, grandparents, g-grandparents, etc. Get all of or as many dates of births, marriage and deaths, with their locations, as you can. Interview your parents, aunts and uncles,?and grandparents to gather your information. Keep notes?of what is accurate information?and what are guesses. For privacy and identity theft reasons, don't post names and any dates of your living family on the Internet. Once you are at that point, you are well on your way and the Internet will be of great help. This Evans List is quite active, so you should have a lot of help. Good luck in your research.

I know he lived in Huron County, OH for a while as he was listed as an early pioneer and married twice there. First to Belinda Stotts in 1824, then to Lydia Trux in 1836. He then moved to Williams Co., OH and married for the third time to Margaret Ritchie. The family went to Illinois in the mid 1840s and then to Minnesota sometime in the 1850s where they remained. According to the death record for Lazarus, his father's name was John. There was an Evans family from Wales that lived near them in Waterville, MN. I found at least one instance of one Evans family witnessing for the other in a marriage. It made me think they may be related and gave a little credence to my grandmother's reference to have some Welsh background. I have never found any of Lazarus' siblings or records of his parents beyond the mention of John and Jane in his death record. There are enough similarities to the stories that it may be worth investigating further.

Hi, I have no idea of your specific assignment, but there is a book about an Evans who was the drummer boy for George Washington.
