Hi Was just sent this address for info on Evans family. My relationship is through Samuel Evans (Samuel 2, William 1) b. Bristol, Eng 1823 & d. 28 Nov 1872 in Rockville, Deleware Co, IA.

Their son Nathan Jr b 1710 PA, m. Mary Fox """" """ Jesse 1772-1848 m. Catherine " " " " David Duke Evans 1810 VA-1883 IN m. Rebecca Ann Carnagey Their daughter Nancy Jane Evans IN 1845-IL 1939 m. William Hatfield Swisher If anyone has information on any of these Evans families we would be happy to correspond. Bob & Sandi McGinnis mcginnis@arn.net

I don't whether this can be verified at all, but I have found a website of the Bowie family genealogy, which does trace the ancestry of Jim Bowie back to Elizabeth Pottinger (Pottenger on this website). http://pitard.net/genealogy/getperson.php?personID=I4012&tree=Pitard Maybe worth looking into more.

In 1729 he married, receiving lands with his wife, and in 1730 the father entailed upon him the plantation called "Thorpland," land left his mother by her father's uncle, John Smith, that is yet owned by descendants. He also received by his second wife a plantation in Queen Anne parish. In 1747 he still further increased his large real estate holdings by the purchase of a plantation called "The Hermitage," lying about twelve miles north of the present city of Washington, D. C, in Frederick, now Montgomery county, a property yet owned by his descendants. On November 29, 1752, he executed a will in which he refers to himself as being "in a low and languid state of health, but of sound mind." This will was probated February, 1753. He did not mention his eldest son by first wife or the entailed property "Thorpland." His son Allen was given "The Hermitage," and his other two sons, James and John, land in Prince George's county, called "Pine Thicket" and "Pine Thicket enlarged." Personal property was left his daughter, and a small provision was made for an expected child then unborn. He is said to have been buried at "Thorpland." He married (first) in 1729, Mary, died 1733, daughter of George Beall, (second) December 18, 1735, Elizabeth, born 1717, died 1755, daughter of Dr. Robert and Anne (Evans) Pottinger, who were married in 1716. His second wife survived him and married (second) Thomas Cramphin, of Frederick county, Maryland, whose first wife had been Mary Jackson, who bore him a son Thomas and a daughter, Ruth Cramphin, born August 30, 1742, who became the wife of her stepbrother Allen Bowie (of whom further). By her second marriage Elizabeth Pottinger (Bowie) Cramphin had three sons: Robert, born 1757; Basil, 1759; and Richard, 1760, all died young, although: Basil lived to serve in the revolutionary war.

I don't have them. But most of my research is on the Hugh line. I'm fairly dependent others for the PA/WV lines I would be surprised if he were 'ours' if he was born in MD in 1825. I would have thought they had all migrated by then. Of course there are unaccounted for children [that I'm dying to know about], but I've never met anyone yet who knows about them. The one I REALLY want to know about is the one who became a Quaker and moved [where was it, Philadelphia?] Sure wish we could find out about him. [From WEE: 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.

Hi Don, My John goes back to Richard and Elizabeth. The John that Nancy Windsor married?? I don't know. I was told a while back that he did not connect to us. I have never researched him.

I possibly have my tree wrong based on what you have said. I have the tree this way - - John Evans 1785 who married Nancy Windsor, son of John Evans 1756, son of John 1728, son of Samuel 1692, son of Richard & Elizabeth (Hall) Evans. The other John Evans I have is also born 1785 but married to Sarah Miller on the other side of my lineage to Richard and Elizabeth (Hall) Evans - the Lucas line. This is possibly another Evans line but John and Sarah (Miller) Evans lived in Ross County Ohio, died and are buried there.

Does anyone know who the daughter is? I have Theophilus Lyle Dickey and Juliet Evans' daughters as Martha Ann, Virginia Isabelle "Belle" and Kitty... Which of these was married to a Wallace? Anyone know? "There were two disappointments which somewhat marred the perfection of the time. One was that Judge Lyle Dickey, of Chicago, Mr. Evans' son-in-law and son of the second pastor of South Salem Church, who was compelled to telegraph at the last minute that he could not come. This branch of the family was, however, very pleasantly represented by the Judge's daughter Mrs. Wallace, widow of Gen. Wallace who was killed in the battle of Pittsburg Landing."

I think this has been around before but I didn't connect with any of it at that time. I now have reference from the Evans descendant report on the family site, that John (ca 1785 of John ca 1756) married Nancy Windsor 1 Jan 1814. I have no additional information on that but do have another John Evans in my files that was born ca 12 Nov 1785 in Maryland, married ca 1812 to Sarah Miller (11 Jul 1792 - 22 Feb 1840) & lived in Green Twp., Ross Co., OH. where both died. The connection I have for this is the Miller line. I have no idea how this John Evans connects to the Evans family, or if he does. However, I wonder if he could be the same John Evans, even though the marriages would indicate he isn't. OR, has anyone else crossed this path and have additional information to identify this or these people? Does anyone have additional information that might clear this up? Don

Hi Just uploaded our own Evans list lines as submitted by several of you. Lots are missing. We should have at least double the number we do I will substitute this doc with another, as more list lines are accumulated. You will find this in the Reviews section. We that those who have contributed will confer with each other, if you find you share a line with some other list member. You might each have some tidbit of info on your particular line that the other doesn't have. This might help you make progress with your own line. Please let us know if you discover something interesting! R

I think I have submitted this in the past, but doing so again for the sake of all our new members. I will also post on our website under the REVIEWS section. I'm still searching for that powder horn... Let me know if anyone has any information on the article below which comes from usgwarchives, Taylor county, WV Biography: MRS. CHARLOTTE M. EVANS The following is found at http://files.usgwarchives.org/wv/taylor/bios/e152-002.txt Taylor County, West Virginia *********************************************************** Submitted by Valerie Crook, <vfcrook@earthlink.net>, March 1999 ********************************************************** The History of West Virginia, Old and New Published 1923, The American Historical Society, Inc., Chicago and New York, Volume III, pg. 29-31 MRS. CHARLOTTE M. EVANS, a resident of the Pruntytown fommunity [sic] of Taylor County, represents three prominent family names of the county. She is a descendant of the Windle and Fleming families, while her husband's people were among the first pioneers to conquer the wilderness of West Virginia. Her paternal grandparents were Thomas J. and Charlotte (Muse) Windle. The former, a native of Pennsylvania and of Quaker stock, came to Upshur County near Buckhannon about 1857, and finally moved to Taylor County, he and his wife being buried at Simpson. He was a noted stock drover as well as farmer, buying stock over a large section of the state. His children were Lewis H.; Mary, who became the wife of James B. Fleming, of Taylor County; Annie, living near Webster, widow of Marshall Lake; Thomas H., who died in Braxton County; and John M., of Greenbrier County. Lewis H. Windle, father of Mrs. Evans, is now a retired farmer in the Webster community of Taylor County. He was born in Philadelphia May 1, 1843, and was fourteen years old when his parents settled in Upshur County. He finished his common school education there, and in the first year of the Civil war joined the Union Army in the First Virginia Volunteers. He was in the command of General Goff and also in Rosecrans' Corps. He was in the battle of Philippi and other campaigns in West Virginia and later in the heavy fighting in old Virginia. After the war he became a butcher, was then connected with coal mining, but the last thirty years of his active career were devoted to the practical side of farming. The first wife of Lewis H. Windle was Olive Fleming, daughter of Minor S. Fleming and member of the distinguished Fleming family whose record is given more completely on other pages of this publication. When she died she left three children: Mrs. Charlotte M. Evans; Zonia May, who died at Grafton, wife of Scott Dawson; and Gussie, who is the wife of Charles Withers and lives on the Minor Fleming farm near Simpson. For his second wife Lewis Windle married Nancy Mason, daughter of Benjamin Mason, but there were no children by this union. Charlotte M. Windle was born in the Rural Dale locality of Upshur County, but from infancy was reared near Flemington in Taylor County, where she acquired her public school education. At the age of nineteen she was married to John S. Evans. This branch of the Evans family was founded by Samuel Evans, who was born in Wales about 1700, and at the age of twenty came to the American colonies, accompanied by his father, Richard Evans. He settled near Hagerstown or Frederick, Maryland. By two marriages he was the father of twenty-two children, his son Richard being killed while fighting the British in the Revolutionary war. His son Edward, born about 1730, in Maryland, and died about 1820, also had a military record of great interest to his descendants. He was one of Washington's soldiers in the Braddock campaign of 1755. Through the influence of Washington he was granted in 1772 for his service a tract of land in Monongalia County. He was at Fort Augusta in 1765, and Suffel's history mentions him as a volunteer in the Revolution. He was among the Monongalia militia paid off at Fort Pitt. He settled in Monongalia County probably in 1779 or 1780. At that time Edward Evans was one of those who received a portion of land allotted by General Washington in pursuance of a proclamation of Governor Dunmore in December 1772. In 1780 he made a declaration that he was a member of the "Old Virginia" regiment in 1756, this confirming his allotment. The records of old Augusta County show the allotment and give further proof of his service in the French and Indian war. His old powder-horn, carried through the war for independence, is now owned by R. E. Campbell of Georgetown, Ohio, and bears the monogram "E. E." and date September, 1775. The children of the pioneer Edward Evans were: Eleanor, who married Robert Patton; Hugh; Catherine, who became Mrs. Jeptha Wilkins; Samuel, who married Harriet Wilson; and Priscilla, who became the wife of John Wilkins. The son Hugh was born in 1769 and died in Preston County in 1873, when well past the century mark. He was at one time sheriff of Preston County. He married Sarah Thomas. Of their seven children Samuel, born in 1800 and died in 1889, married Sarah Means, and of their eight children the last survivor was Isaac Evans of Fetterman. Hugh Evans, also a son of Samuel and Sarah (Means) Evans, was born in 1830 in the Evansville community of Preston County, and became a resident of Fetterman in Taylor County. He was in the Government service as a butcher during the Civil war, but his active years were devoted to farming. He was sheriff of Taylor County, and widely known as a citizen. He died at the age of forty-two. His first wife was Mary Am-na Shroyer, daughter of Jacob and Sarah (Miller) Shroyer, and the only child of that union was John S. Evans. By his second wife, Mary Jean Jones, he had a daughter, Mary, now Mrs. Cleophus Woodford, of Grafton. John Shroyer Evans was born at Fetterman in Taylor County January 26, 1856, and secured his early education there and at Knottsville. After his marriage to Miss Charlotte Windle March 13, 1887, he concentrated his efforts upon the farm where Mrs. Evans now lives. Stock and dairy farming was his chief work, and he improved one of the most attractive places along the Grafton-Pruntytown Pike. He died at his home here July 21, 1910. He had served on the local Board of Education, was trustee of the Fetterman Methodist Episcopal church and was a democrat in politics. John S. Evans was thrice married. First, in 1878 to Dora, daughter of James Allen and Mary Ellen (Ford) Bartlett. She died in March, 1880, but this union was blessed with one daughter, Myrtle. On May 9, 1882, he married Susan, daughter of John and Sallie (Curry) Sinsel. Her death occurred in November, 1883. His daughter Myrtle completed her home school education and became the wife of 0. L. Scranage. Their present home is on a portion of the home farm, and Gladys, their eldest daughter, is now a student of West Virginia University. Mrs. Evans has given her life to her children and her home. Her daughters are leaving their mark and influence on West Virginia education, and her only son besides carrying on the activities left by his father has a record of service in the World war. Mary, her oldest daughter, was educated in the Broaddus Institute, West Virginia University, and is a graduate of the Fairmont State Normal, and is now principal of the West Virginia Industrial School for Boys. Lulu is a graduate of the Grafton High School and the Fairmont State Normal, attended summer sessions of West Virginia University, and is one of the teachers in the First Ward school of Grafton. Sallie Evans, after graduating from the Grafton High School and getting her A. B. degree from the State University, taught four years, and then married Frank E. Lyon, of Michigan, and is now living in Ontario, Canada. Harriet, a graduate of the Grafton High School and of Marshall College of Huntington, was a teacher in Grafton three years before her marriage to C. B. Shingleton of Clarksburg, West Virginia. Their present home is in Charleroi, Pennsylvania, and they are the proud parents of one baby daughter Charlotte Ann. Alma supplemented her high school course at Grafton with two years in the University, taught a year in rural schools and then became teacher of French and Latin in the Harrisville High School. Olive Ada, a graduate of the Grafton High School and the West Virginia Wesleyan College, had a year and a halt of teaching experience, and is now the wife of L. F. Damron, of Huntington. Annie Laurie, the youngest daughter, completed the high school course at Grafton in 1921 and is now taking nurses' training in the Allegheny General Hospital, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Hugh Evans, the only son, grew up at the old home farm and early took an interest in the dairy and stock. He was educated in the Pruntytown public school and had a commercial course at Grafton. At the beginning of May, 1918, he volunteered, was assigned to Company A of the 401st Engineers, was trained at Richmond, Virginia, and Fort Oglethorpe, Georgia, and from Long Island went overseas on the transport Leviathan, the converted liner Vaterland. After landing at Brest the 401st Engineers were sent to Charms, then to Le Mans for equipment, and were engaged in construction of pontoon bridges just behind one of the advanced lines when the armistice was signed. The regiment was under the direct command of Major General Alexander, commander of the Forty-second or Rainbow Division. Hugh Evans became a sergeant in his company. His farthest east was in Belgium, forty miles from Brussels. February 22, 1919, he sailed from St. Nazaire, France, on the U. S. S. Mongolia, arriving at New York March 7th, was at Camp Merritt where the contingent was broken up, and he was sent to Camp Meade for discharge. He left Camp Meade March 29th, and arrived at Grafton late the same day. Since the war he has been handling the responsibilities of the home farm. He is vice commander of Taylor County Post No. 78 of the American Legion.

Once uploaded to the website you can check out each others' lineages and find out who is in your immediate line. This will allow you to confer with each other and possibly share information. That way you might make more progress in your own research than you would have been able to otherwise. We certainly hope you will share any discoveries with us. In another several months, if more lines are submitted, I will pull the old list from the site and substitute the newer and more complete one.
