    3. Searching for any info regarding Andrew EVANS who was born 9-28-1759 in Mecklenburg county NC and died 12-5-1840 in Owen county IN. He married Elizabeth FAIN about 1780 in Washington county TN. Elizabeth FAIN born 7-29-1764 and died 10-4-1850-1859 in Owen county IN. Andrew was also appointed Commissioner of Revenue for Pulaski county KY on August 3 1799.The family lived there quite some time before migrating to IN about 1817 where he took out land grants. I have seen various pieces of info stating that the lineage back from Andrew is: DAVID--father PETER--grandfather LOT the II--born 1666 LOT THE I But I also have a transcription regarding this family which refers to Andrew as the young Andrew. And also makes mention that: On Feb 9 1773 Andrew Evans and his wife Nancy of Bedford county VA made a land grant of 347 acres to John Ward for 100 pounds. This could not be the Andrew born in 1759 as he would only be 14 and Andrew of 1759 married Nancy. So I am wondering if the parents of the Andrew born in 1759 are Andrew and Nancy?? Any help in this puzzle is more then welcome. Debbie Jennings debj@comsys.net "Following the footprints through time"
