Christine, it's probably because we're no better placed to make a connection than you are, unfortunately.

The only way would be to plot the trees of both families to see if they overlap in any way.

As you're aware, with a name like Evans it could be a humongous job.

Would there be a reason why no-one is keen to assist me on this one? As I would appreciate some feedback; but not of rude content please?

Thank you

I've put a marriage which I think could be their's but I would appreciate some help please?

Help Please? Hitting a wall

Still trying to connect William & Emily Evans and their marriage with so many discrepancies.

EVANS, William G Head Married M 62 1839 Upholsterer
Bath, Somersetshire

EVANS, Emily Wife Married F 52 1839
Bristol Somersetshire

Any help would really be appreciated. Thank you

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you Marie.
Could someone please give me advice on how I can establish if the Brock Street Bath Evans' are related to the 2, Greenfields Buildings, Lyncombe & Widcombe, Bath County: Somersetshire Evans' please?

Thank you in anticipation

Christine

Christine - you can check ownership of houses on Land Registry - www.landregistry.gov.uk.

But, bear in mind that the owner of the house may not have been the occupant.

Is there a source which I can search of who owns houses please?

Thank you Lynne for the additional information. The plot thickens!

I've linked up William George Evans marrying Emily Evans Sept 1858. So Emily Evans marries an Evans??? Do they produce two girls with the same names as her sisters? OR am I imagining this?

Any help would be truly appreciated.

Thank you for your help so far. This is merely hearsay and the only other information is that he is believed to have been a Captain in Queen Victoria's Dragoon Guards as he was presented with a sword by HRH in the name of William Evans was known as Louie would have been early 1900's as my father was taken to see him as a boy and my father was born in 1895. William (Louie) was allegedly his grandfather but not through marriage. I've tried the freebmd but I wandered if I could track him down as he lived in Brock Street, Bath.

Christine

There are lots of records for people with first name Captain on freebmd but none for Evans. ( up to 1940 anyway)
