Hi Leonard, Evan Hancock, nor any of his siblings had a middle name or initial. I don't know where Evan died, but he was still in Craven Co., NC in July 1790 when he witnessed a Will: _http://files.usgwarchives.net/nc/craven/wills/bell01.txt_ (http://files.usgwarchives.net/nc/craven/wills/bell01.txt) Evan's brothers (sons of James Hancock & Tamar Jones) did move out of Craven / Jones, NC. James and Roger moved to Orange County, NC after 1810 where they left Wills in 1816 & 1817, respectively. William moved to Wake Co., NC where he was living when the brother, John Hancock, applied for his Rev. War pension and mentioned him as having the family bible. John left his Will in Carteret Co., NC in 1838. Actually, I have never tried to follow Evan, but he may have died early since I didn't bump into him in all my Hancock research. I wish I could be of more help. It is impossible to clean up all the misinformation that circulates on the Internet and many don't seem to want the truth. For instance. A few days ago, I corrected an email where a lady said that she was descended from William Hancock who died in the Indian massacre in 1622 in Virginia. When I told her that William didn't die in the massacre and was, most likely, never in America, another lady popped up and said that she was descended from that William, too. So if more than one says it, that makes it true??? It is a mystery to me that people collect data from the Internet and don't care to hear the truth or to do "real" research. If you read the archives of the Hancock list, you will see all the years that Lisa Craven and others, including myself where correcting a lot of the misinformation on the Hancock lines. You have done all the South Carolina Hancocks such a great favor, Leonard, by doing the research, making sure that it is placed on the Hancock list and correcting errors as you find them.

I have posted this earlier; howerver, worth repeating as it seems to never stop. Anyone using the son, John of William and Tabithia Jackson Hancock as moving and dying in GA; as their link is wrong. Making short, none of William and Tabithia's children moved into nor died in GA, Their son John was born and died in SC. Also, there seems to be the same problem regarding Evan Hancock, s/o of James & Tamar Jones Hancock of Craven Co., NC. First and foremost, this line is not connected to the Chesterfield Co., SC Hancocks. DNA matches abound and its obvious these two lines are not connected. Thus my question. Growing by leaps and bounds, is the info showing this Evan Hancock with the middle initial of H. I have never seen middle initials for their sons. Second, the same info shows Evan born abt 1750 in NC and dying in Chesterfield Co., SC, in 1815. After 25+ years of connecting these Chesterfield Co., SC, Hancocks, I've never come across any evidence to even show, Evan of James & Tamar, even passed thru the county. Can anyone please show me the evidence or proof as to these two statements since they are being used quite often. Any leads or clues will be greatly appreciated.
