Evans Atwood, M.D.," written by Wilburn E. Atwood. It was full of genealogy on this line although, in the deciphering, I might have made a couple of errors. It begins with Evans' grandfather, James Atwood; then Evans' father, Simeon; then Evans. JAMES ATWOOD D: ca 1853/54 Vermilion Co., IL (a Virginian; pioneer settler of Kentucky; moved to OH then to IL). Children: Simeon; William who md Mahaly ______ and lived in Cass Co., IN; Alford (Alfred) who md Diadania (Drudania)_____ and lived in Vermilion Co., IL (they had a daughter Mary Jane (Atwood) Pane and sons Isaac Jackson, Samuel Alfred, and James William); Green; Patsey; Les; Jim; and Jesper, (and possibly a son Elza. 1. SIMEON ATWOOD B: 1807 Adair Co., KY D: 6-10-1888 M: 7-31-1835 ELIZA McGARY B: 1820 Posey Co., IN D: 5-18-1883 Eliza was the daughter of Hugh McGary who served in the Indian wars of Florida and in the Black Hawk war as an officer. Simeon and Eliza had 8 children; this family moved to Texas in 1840 then to Washington Co., AR. Children: Evans; Harriet; Jeretta; and others. 1. EVANS ATWOOD (eldest) B: 11-10-1836 Vermilion Co., IL D: 3-10-1920 Andice, Williamson Co., TX at the home of his son-in-law, Harry Snow. M: 11-6-1859 1) LUCY JANE ROBERTS B: East TN 6-29-1841 (Divorced 1867.) Evans served during the Civil War as a Lieutenant in the North West 15th Arkansas Infantry, CSA. He was taken prisoner on May 1, 1863 and was held until the war closed. Upon being released from captivity after the war, he went home to find that his wife had remarried in his absence. They negotiated and she took the son and Evans took the daughter and Evans nor his daughter ever saw Lucy again. Evans married a total of three times. 2 Children: Martha Jane Atwood B: 4-3-1860 James Calvin Atwood B: 10-2-1861 married second: 2) SUSAN WILSON M: 2-17-1867 B: 7-31-1839 Washington Co, AR D: 3-2-1887 Arkansas Children: Robert Lee Atwood born 11-22-1867-had dau. Eva Atwood; John Wilson Atwood born 12-17-1868; Lettie Ellen Atwood born 4-12-1870; William Archie Atwood born 12-9-1871, Herman Evans Atwood born 5-29-1873; Retta May Atwood born 5-1-1875; Rilla Belle Atwood born 1-30-1877; Simeon Dick Atwood born 9-23-1878, Hugh (McGary?)

Lichlyter Child: Simeon Jones Lichlyter Harriet lived in Farmersville, Posey Co., IN 3. Jeretta Atwood (Evans' sister) M: _______ Brown Lived in Springdale, AR (NOTE: I would imagine that Evans' daughter "Retta May" was named after this sister and that her actual name was Jeretta.) Evans married third: 3) MARY JANE (WARD) THOMPSON They had one child. Hope this helps someone. ==== ATWOOD Mailing List ==== This ATWOOD list is currently available for adoption!
