Hello Linda,

Thank you for posting your query. I have researched the name you gave me and I found the following in the DAR Patriot Index:

EVANS, JOHN SR
Ancestor #: A037589
Service: PENNSYLVANIA
Rank: PRIVATE
Birth: (CIRCA) 1733
Death: 4- -1798 DUNKARD TWP GREENE CO PENNSYLVANIA

2) SOL, LT LEVI HEROD IN REPELLING INDIANS
Residence: 1) City: GREEN TWP - County: WASHINGTON CO - State: PENNSYLVANIA

If you would like a copy of the application with this patriot’s information, you may request a copy from DAR National Headquarters. You will need to send the above information about the Patriot, along with a check made payable to the “Treasurer General, NSDAR” in the amount of $10 (U.S.). The request and check should be sent:

Library Copy Services, DAR
1776 D Street NW
Washington, DC 20006-5303.

Requests will take between 6-8 weeks.

If any lineal descendant of this patriot would like more information about joining DAR or SAR, please send me your name and address to h0meb0und@aol.com (the o’s are zeroes) and we will have a DAR or SAR Chapter near you get in contact with you.

I hope this information helps.

Sincerely,
Joyce
DAR VIS Volunteer
