I believe the Jeptha Evans who married Alice Byrd was the son of Thomas and Lucinda Webb Evans. Alice Byrd was born 16 May 1858 in Detroit, AL, just across the Monroe Co., MS Line. She was the daughter of John Kirk Byrd and Elvira Caroline Moore Byrd. Jeptha, Alice and a one-year old daughter, Camila, were listed on the 1880 Lamar Co., AL Census. If this Jeptha Evans was not the son of Thomas and Lucinda Webb Evans, I would be interested in the proof of who was. I have more information on the Byrd family if anyone if you are researching them.

I believe the Jeptha in the 1880 census in Millville is tha son of Martha J Harper Evans and James H Evans b abt 1827 S.C. James H died before 1870. Martha and all 7 of her children of from the 1870 Shelby Co census are in Millville, Lamar in 1880. 1850 census shows James H and Martha with new born Leona > > Alabama marriages shows a marriage of Jeptha Evans to Alyce Byrd on 24 Jan 1878 > and another Jeptha to Martha Nichols 2 Dec 1875.Is this the sams Jeptha? > >
