Notes for Nathan Evans:

Note and Queries, William H. Egle, Annual Volume 1899

(p.144) Welsh Settlers: In Earl and Caernarvon Townships, Lancaster County.

        "Nathan Evans was born in the year 1682 in Treve Eghlis, Montgomeryshire, Wales. He came to this country with the Welsh emigration before the year 1700 and settled with his countrymen in the Welsh tract at Radnor, where in the year 1709 he married Susanna, daughter of Willaim and Ann (Miles) Davies. William Davies was a merchant in Philadelphia. He owned vessels, and likely lived at Radnor, where he had a plantation. The following agreement (the original of which is in the possession of descendants of Nathan Evans} sets forth their occupations.        "Memorandum:

        It is agreed by and between Nathan Evans of Edgmont in the County of Chester, in the Province of Pennsylvania, Mill-right, of the one part, and William Davies, of the Township of Radnor, in the County and Province aforesaid, merchant of the other part, as followeth  (viz't):

        Imprimis. It is agreed and Covenanted by the s'd parties that the s'd William Davies (for the consideration hereafter mentioned) is to Bring and Transport from Great Britain to Pensilvania so many of the s'd Nathan's kinfolks and Relations as shall and will be free and willing to venture to come over on the s'd Nathan Evan's account; and also the s'd William Davies is to find and allow them sufficient mentainance During their voyage after they are shipped on Board a Shipp and Set Sail, in order for their transportation to Pensilvania as affors'd; and also the s'd William Davies is to assist and help all the s'd Nathan's Kinsfolks and Relations as are willing to venture as affors'd from the place of their abode until they are shipped as affors'd (if occation be).

                                Nathan Evans

Sealed And Delivered in the p'sence of us.

                                Hugh Hughes

                                Mirick Davies"

        The agreement would lead us to believe that Nathan Evans had considerable means, if he was prepared in fourteen days after their arrival in America, to pay for the transportation of his kinsfolk, not limiting the number, and that he was very desirous that they should come to this country. It is not known that any did come over on his account under the agreement. He had a brother, Roger Evans in the Province and he mentions in his will two nephews in the Province of Maryland, likely sons of Roger.

        The agreement is witnesses by Hugh Hughes, who marries Mary Davies, another daughter of Willaim Davies, and Mirick Davies, a son of William, who was coroner of Philadelphia in 1720 and 1728. The said Willaim Davies, came to America about 1685, purchased a lot in Philadelphia on Walnut Street from John Jones, 10-30-1685, and in the same year he purchased a plantation at Radnor. He was originally a Quaker, and his name frequently appears in the Radnor and Haverford meeting records. Afterward he became an ardent Episcopalian. The first Episcopal services in the vicinity were held in his house, then in a log cabin built upon his plantation, which burned down early in 1700, and which was replaced by the present St. David's Church, near St. David's Station, on Pennsylvania Railroad. His children were members of the church. Nathan Evan's name appears in the records. William Davies was a vestryman and he was prominent in the church as long as he lived. He was a member of the Pennsylvania Assembly in 1712 and 1714. He died in 1734, leaving among his assets a "pew in St. David's Church"

        From Pennsylvania Archives Vol XIX, Second Series, we find. In 1715 Willaim Cloud obtained a warrant for 300 acres of land in Chester County which he assigned to his son,  Joseph Cloud who in 1718 had 300 acres surveyed to him on a branch of the Conestoga Creek; and in First month 1720, paid ten pounds in part and since by deed "ye 1st May, 1725 conveyed all his right and title to Nathan Evans, of said county, millwright." This is the property that he finally settled upon and where he built his house, still standing and occupied and owned by a descendant [written 1899], in now Caernarvon township, Lancaster County. Again from same volume "Said Nathan Evans requests a grant of about 100 acres adjoining the east side of the above to erect a mill on.' He also requests a grant of a piece of land for a settlement for his brother Roger, on the southside of his tract, and from Surveyor Taylor's papers, in Historical Society of Philadelphia, we find that surveys were made January 1737, to Roger Evans for 150 acres on the North and South branches of the Brandywine, in Nantmeal Township, and to Nathan Evans, 150 acres on the North branch of the Brandywine in Nantmeal township, Chester County, warrant having been given to him 9-20-1718 for 100 acres "on which he intends to build a mill." James Steel gave orders to Isaac Taylor to lay out the land.

The above fixes the fact that Nathan Evan's brother Roger was in this country in 1718 and was living in 1737. He sold his farm in Edgmont township in 1724, and since he bought the Conestoga farm about the same time, he must have moved to the Conestoga Valley in this year. He built the house now owned and occupied by Isaac Evans, on a part of this plantation, which he called the little meadow. The following is taken from the records of the Bangor Church, Churchtown, Lancaster County:

        "By the honorable William Penn, Esquire, original proprietor of the Province of Pennsylvania, his charter to all persons themselves from any part of Christendom into said Province. It is granted they shall enjoy the free license of the Christian religion under whatever denomination. Upon this, so engaging a plan of privileges, among others, several families of Welsh known by the name of Ancient Britons, did transplant themselves from Wales, in Old England, unto the Province aforesaid and settled themselves at first in the Township of Radnor, in the county of Chester, in the province aforesaid, where they erected a place of worship, where they had divine service, according to the doctrine and discipline of the Episcopal Church of England, of which Church they were zealous members, and had for their minister, the Rev. Robert Weyman, the society's missionary for the Propagating of the Gospel in Foreign parts.

        After some years many of them finding their settlement too confined (from the vast number of incomers) they, Anno Domini 1730, removed some miles to the westward into a new county called Lancaster and settled in a township called Caernarvon from a shrine of the same name in Wales in Old England, and fixing here, they (in imitation of all good Christians) found that no place would be agreeable to them without the Public Worship of God, therefore unanimously and cordially consented and agreed according to their worldly circumstances to build a church of square logo, which they furnished and gave the name of Bangor from a diocese of that name in Old England. The principal members who built the church were as follow, viz:

 

        Thomas Williams         Evan Hughes

        George Huttson            Zaccheus Davies

        Nathan Evans               George Huttson

        Edward Davies             Edward Nicholas

        Thomas Morgan          Edward Davies

        Rees Davies          Hugh Davies

        Philip Davies         David Davies

        Gabriel Davies              Morgan Evans

        Morgan John                John Davies

        John Bowen          Charles Huttson

        John Edwards               Thomas Nicholas

        Nicholas Huttson         John Davies

Note-These Davies were relatives of Susanna Davies, wife of Nathan Evans. Gabriel and John were her brothers. Congressman Edward Davies Was a descendant of Gabriel. Nathan Evans moved to this region ahead of his friends from Radnor.

        The first pastor was Rev. Griffith Hughes 1730-1733. Then in succession Rev. Roger Blackwell, 1733-1739; Richard Lock, 1739-1751; George Craig, 1751-1759; THOMAS BARTON, 1759-1774. (In the interval during the Revolutionary War, they had no minister), and Rev. Frederick Illig, 1782.

        On the 17th day of November, A.D. 1751, the first record of the church was recorded; when Nathan Evans was chosen a vestryman and he continued each year at the head of the vestry until his death. At a meeting of the vestry on the 7th day of September, A.D. 1754, a subscription was taken up to raise money to build a new church. The largest subscription was given by Nathan Evans, one hundred pounds.

        The warrant for the land upon which the church was built (and still stands) is dated 5-24-1738. Survey was made "to Gabriel Davies for a church thereon then intended to be erected and since erected and called Bangor Church, for the use of a congregation of Protestants of the established Church of England"  Patent was issued to "Linford Lardner (who was a cousin of William Penn and Treasurer of the Province) and John Davies (the present church wardens,) and theirs heirs for the use aforesaid."  62 acres and 167 perches. Consideration, 9 pounds, 14 shillings and 8 pence. Quitrent 1/2 penny per acre. In 1759, Nathan Evans, Senior, pad "for the Glebe land, which lies around the church and cleared it out of the office by a patent for the use of the minister officiating in the church of Bangor, 29 pounds, 2 shillings.                George Craig

From the first page of the church record: "Easter Monday, April 7, 1769. Mr. Nathan Evans Sem., paid into the hands of William Douglas, Treasurer to the Chruch of Bangor, the sum of 19 pounds, 2 shillings and 3 pence, being the last payment of a benefaction of one hundred pounds which he generously contributed towards building said church, and which the congregation acknowledges to have now received in full."

        Nathan Evans died December 23, 1763, leaving a will, mentioned his wife, Susanna, son Nathan, John and James, and daughters, Ann, wife of Eleazor Evans, and Mary wife of Thomas Nicholas, grandsons Nathan, son of Nathan; John and David, sons of Ann; Nathan and William, sons of James, and nephews Richard and Jonathan in the Province of Maryland (these were likely sons of his brother Roger). After devising the farm on which he lived to his son James, he bequeathed "Twenty shillings, which it is my will shall be given to the minister of Bangor Church yearly and every year forever, which 20 shillings I charge and lay upon the meadow commonly known by the name Little Meadow."

        One of his descendants now lives upon this farm and the amount has always been and is regularly paid to the church. He also bequeathed 100 pounds to buy three bells for the church, but money was used for other purposes. He also devised a farm in Tredyffrin Township, Chester County, to his grandson Nathan, son of Nathan, subject to an annual payment of twenty shillings to be used toward the support of a school in said township.

        A large slab of marble covers his grave in Bangor churchyard, upon which is inscribed:

 

        "Waiting for the glorious resurrection of the faithful,

        Here lies the body of Nathan Evans, the elder.

        Born in Treve Englis, in the county of Montgomery,

        in the principality of Wales.

        A man, humble in affluence and prosperity.

        In the duties of religion devout.

        In friendship faithful,

        In his dealings just,

        To the poor he dispensed with a liberal hand.

        To the church he was a generous and bountiful benefactor,

        and to all mankind a loving friend.

        Having attained the age of eighty-one years he calmly resigned

        his soul unto the hands of the redeemer on the 23rd day of December,

        A.D. 1763

        The memory of the just shall be held in everlasting remembrance."

 

        His descendants are widely distributed throughout the United States"{Egle, Wm. H. Notes and Queries}

Notes for Lot Evans:

"Grandfather Evans was a native of Berks County, Pennsylvania, but early in life removed to a place near West Chester, Chester County, and in 1824 took up a residence at Catawissa Furnace, Northumberland county. From here he removed in 1829 to Pottsville, and thence in 1832 to St. Clair, same County, where he died in 1858 at the age of seventy one years. During the early years of his life, he was engaged as a clerk; but upon his removal to Catawissa he erected a forge, a furnace and a grist mill, and these continued to occupy his attention while he remained there. During his stay in Pottsville, he was in the employ of the Miner's National Bank, and continued in that relation until his removal to St. Clair, when he became a superintendent of one of the collieries owned by Mr. Nicholas. In 1853 he was engaged as a clerk by Mr. Whitfield and continued several years. In the latter part of his life he was town clerk for a time, and was also elected to the office of justice of the peace. He was a Whig and republican in politics, a Quaker in religious faith, and had a family of six children, four sons and two daughters."

DEATH OF AN OLD CITIZEN OF ST. CLAIR

        On Tuesday morning last, Baldwin Jackson Evans one of the oldest residents of St. Clair, died after a protracted illness. Mr. Evans was one of the most widely known and most highly respected citizens of our neighboring borough. He was born in 1819 at a small village called Romansville in Chester County and was the oldest child of a family of six. Two brothers survive him. About 50 years ago, the family removed to St. Clair, which was then but a wilderness, not more than half a dozen families having settled there. By his good habits and untiring zeal, he soon won the esteem of all he became acquainted with and until his demise was universally liked. For several years he held the position of outside foreman of the pine Forrest Colliery, which was then owned by George W. Snyder, and some years later was head clerk in Lucas and Dennings General Store at Glen Carbon. During the past ten years, however, he was not able to work much, owing to consumption having taken hold of his system. He leaves a grown up family of nine children as follows; Mrs. Joseph Dennings, St. Clair; Mrs. George Farne, Minersville; Mrs. C.W. Moister, Duke Center, McKean County and Alfred B., Latrobe, Westmoreland County; Thomas J., John R., C. Frank., A. Gracey and Clay H. all of St. Clair. His wife, who was formerly a Miss mary Reese, of St. Clair also survives him.
