Hi Everyone!

 

I'm trying to re-connect with my cousins again!  My 2x great grandfather was Henry Foster Evans and his wife was Lavina "Vinnie" Null Evans.  I found a cousin by the name of Donnie Irene Evans Shewey, who passed away several years ago, but really haven't pursued the Evans line all that much since then.  I know that Henry Foster's father was a John S. Evans and was from Tennessee or South Carolina and that they came to Dallas County around 1840.  I am trying to see if anyone has any further information back to where they came from.  I have clues that they had sold property as I have a transcription from a Chattanooga(?) newspaper but do not know anything additional.  I was told by Donnie Irene that it was rummored that the family immigrated from Ireland.  Any information would be appreciated.
