Subject: EVANS surname


I have found my self at a huge brickwall on my EVANS side of the family tree. My 
reat-grandfather was Robert Lee Evans b. abt 1865-1870 to a John and Nettie 
vans.  Robert's marriage record says he was born in Virginia but the 1900 
ensus say he was b. in D.C as was his parents. Some family info that I have 
een given says he was from Alleghany Co., Va. I have searched the census but 
annot find a John Evans with a wife by the name of Nettie. Did find a John 
vans married to a Henrietta, 1870/80 Rockbridge Co., VA census, but they have 
o children in their household. I am hoping there may be some EVANS researcher 
n this list that can be of some help to me. With the given name of Robert Lee I 
eel strongly that he was born in Virginia as is stated on his marriage record 
hich has the names of his parents, John and Nettie. Any help given will 
ertainly be appreciated,
Thanks for any and all replies,
Bev
