I was interested in the information on Evans from Warren county. My gggrandmother was Nancy Evans from Warren Co, NC, she married Robert William Laughter. Here is some of what I have on her descendants. Would love to know her parents.

Pat, The Evans Family in Warren County area seem to have first appeared there with the following people: Burrell or Burwell Evans, listed as Negro in 1771, and 1784 in Granville Jane Evans , in 1771 in Bute Major Evans,listed as Negro, in 1771 in Bute, 1769 in Granville James Evans, listed as Free Colored, in 1790 in Warren, but he never appeared again. I've been trying to find the connections between all of these Evans, and have been trying to determine who were some of their descendants. I have a list of at least 2 - 3 lines of Evans, but unsure who was their direct ancestor. My Evans is James Evans, I think, because I have been tracing a family from 1814 when a James Evans, Mulatto, was born. He first shows up in 1850 in Warren County, with 12 children. It's possible that your Nancy could have been another sibling of my James because I haven't been able to verify the family relationships. There were several other Evans in Warren by then, and they all seem related because of the places where they lived and, sometimes a child of one would show living with the other. Do you think your Nancy could have been from this branch.
