Hi and welcome Terry and Gary. It's nice to have you joining the list
and it's nice to have someone else along Emily's (Sarah Evans') line!
Mine's from Sarah's brother, Thomas Evans:
Evan ap Evan
Thomas ap Evan (1651-1738) m. Ann ___
Evan Evans (1684-1747) m. Elizabeth Musgrove
Jonathan Evans (1714-1795) m. Hannah Walton
Jonathan Evans, Jr. (1759-1839) m. Hannah Bacon
Thomas Evans (1798-1868) m. Catharine Wistar
John Wistar Evans (1836-1873) m. Eleanor Tyson Stokes
Elizabeth Waln Cope Evans (1868-1952) m. Francis Goodhue
Elizabeth Evans Goodhue (1899-1989) m. Francis Harrar Diament
Martha Warnes Diament (1927-) m. William Wallace McMakin
Elizabeth Evans McMakin (me)
I, too, have record of the ship "Robert and Elizabeth", arriving
7/17/1698 with some 31 Evans'. I recently found the phone number of J.
Morris Evans, benefactor of Haverford
Library's Special Collections and the author of one of the family
history books I have, and plan to call him soon to ask about his
resources, particularly regarding that ship & I'll let you know.
It's ironic that Gary shared the Genealogical Publishing Co.'s web site
as I only just now found their 800 # (800-296-6687). The web site was
an even better idea & I promptly ordered a copy of "Merion in the Welsh
Tract" which they HAVE IN PRINT (hear that Emily!). Thanks. In case
anyone's interested, I also inquired about the following & they were all
either not in stock or not on their list -- Fooey:
Evans, Americans of Royal Descent (Reddell)
Americans of Royal Descent (Browning)
Welsh Settlement of Pennsylvania (Campbell)
Historical Collections Relating to Gwynedd (Jenkins)
Social Mobility in a Quaker Family (Evans)
Welsh Founders of Pennsylvania (Glenn)
Heraldic Visitations of North Wales (Dunn)
Emily, my ILL paperwork for Reddell's Royal Descent book doesn't tell me
what library it was copied from. I made myself a note to go and ask the
librarian & maybe she'll be
sympathetic to another request from me (I might have to wait a little
longer). Not being able to get a copy of this book even through ILL is
driving us both NUTS!
Back to work. Happy Thanksgiving. Beth.
