HI I am new to the list and thought that I would put this in:
A distant relative recently found a picture of Absalom and Katherine Ader
Evans. The photo has on the side "Schroy
Lebanon, Ind". Can anyone tell me anything about "Schroy"? a photographer
perhaps. Are there any business
directories for Lebanon in the late 1800's no later than 1908. Does anyone
have any information on Absalom and
Katherine's children?
EVAN, ABSALOM; he was a farmer, who lived 6 miles northeast of Lebanon. He
was born in NC in 1816 and settled in
Boone County in 1862, he was a Rep and Methodist.
In the Cenus 1870 of Boone County, Absalom Evans is listed and also on the
same page a Jereld 24 years old, born in NC.
In the book Cemeteries of Boone Co, Vol 1, by Rosemary Peterman & Marilyn
Walker, shows a Catherine Evans, born
8-28-1817, died 9-19-1883, as the wife of Absolom. Sorry to say, that is
the only EVANS listed at Brown's Wonder Cem.
