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

Imprimis. It is agreed and Covenanted by

interchangeably. Dated the 25th day of October, Anno Dom. 1714.
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."

Obituary From
POTTSVILLE DAILY REPUBLICAN dated Tuesday 6 Mar 1888:
Another old citizen of
our sister borough of St. Clair on Tuesday, departed this life, leaving a
family of grown children. No prince
could be worthier of unobtrusive and quiet in life. Baldwin Evans made money, friends, was
honored oft with local offices of trust and honor, and after living his life
honorably and well, leaves a living memory to friends and relatives. Among the children of the deceased were: Mrs.
Joseph Denning of St. Clair; Mrs. George Forney of Minersville; Mrs. Charles
Mister of Lansford and sons Frank. Thomas, Gracie, Clay H. and Alf. Deceased was the uncle of Clay W. Evans, the
merchant.

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.
