If anyone has information about the ancestry of Edward EVANS [Sr.] or any other new information about this direct EVANS family line, please contact us.
One secondary source without documentation says a Samuel EVANS & Dorothy COLVILLE are the parents of Edward [Sr.]. Another secondary source without documentation says a Hugh I. EVANS is the father of Edward [Sr.]. Both men are shown as having been born in Wales. It is interesting, however, that Edward [Sr.] did not name any of his children Samuel, Dorothy, or Hugh!
