Dear LeSamara Oliver, Bobbie Hunley, Steve Campbell and Judy Martin-Urban. I've tried to send this info to your individual email addresses, but AOL doesn't seem to recognize the ones listed on the ancestry board. I hope this works.
I'm a descendant of Stokely D. EVANS, the younger brother of Alexander. I have been searching for info on this family, but have not been too successful. Here's what I "think" I know about them. I'm still looking for the name of their father who I continue to refer to as my unknown EVANS.
