"George Shriner's brother John Evon came from Austria-Hungary. John Evon changed his name from Shriner to Evon to excape the army in Austria. That has been my understanding, no way to prove it. His family lives in what I believe is Benning, Pa."
I can't find a Benning, Pa so but it might be a nickname I'm not aware of. I know it's not much to go on but still trying to find all George Shriner's family.
