Hello Claire & Listers,
I have Evans's of Llangurig in my tree, but my information is a bit sketchy!
I have a James Evans (b 1806, Beguildy, Radnorshire) who married Mary
Savage (b 1809, Llanidloes,Montgomeryshire) on 12 October 1835 in Llangurig.
They went on to have four children that I have identified:-
Mary Evans b 1838 Llangurig
d unknown
John Evans b 1840, Cwm Belan, Llangurig,
d 05 Feb 1912 Blaenavon , Mon
James Savage Evans b 18 May 1844, Dowlais, Merthyr Tydfil,
d 28 Aug 1908 Whiting, Indiana, USA
Edward S Evans, b 1849, Dowlais, Merthyr Tydfil
d 1922 Chicago, Illinois, USA
Could this be the same branch of the Evans family that you are researching?
Perhaps James Evans and your Mary Evans could be siblings?
Sorry I have no further information about James Evans' origins - perhaps
other listers may be able to assist.
Best wishes,
David Evans
Buntingford, Herts
