Joan,
Congratulations on becoming the administrator of this mailing list.
Edward Evans, b. 1786, a widower, married Hannah Jarret, a widow, in
Risca, Monmouth, Wales, on 23 September 1816, They had 8 children; the
sixth, Thomas Evans, b. 5 August 1827 in Risca, d. 3 March 1904 in
Milton, Northumberland, PA, USA, was my great-grandfather. Edward was
a farmer according to the 19 April 1851 marriage certificate of
Thomas and Ann Croft, b. 25 July 1833 in the Parish of Bedwellty,
Monmouth, Wales, d. 13 April 1907 in Milton, PA.
Edward's prior marriage was to Hannah Coslet.
I would appreciate receiving information about Edward and his
parents. I do not know if Jarret was Hannah's maiden name or the
surname of her former husband. I would also like to know more about
Hannah Coslet.
I have the names and birth dates of all 8 of the children of Edward
and Hannah, if anyone is interested--also the names and birth dates of
all 8 of the children of Thomas and Ann.
Thanks, Harold W. Evans
