Re: Evetts Surname....DNA Anyone?

JaneEvettsCartwright — 2012-05-29 12:15:49Z

My maiden name is Evetts also from Samueal and Susannah. I would be interested in communicating with you. Please contact me on Ancestry.com under Evetts Family Tree. I have talked with a relative in his 80's who has said he and his wife have finalized the paperwork to do the DNA testing so will be pleased to see how yours and his match up.

Evetts Surname....DNA Anyone?

seitz157 — 2012-04-09 20:24:15Z

My maiden name was Evetts and I therefore went to my nephew to do the y-DNA testing. It came back where we are kin to quite a few Everett surnames but no Evetts surnames. I can track us back to a supposed George Evetts from NC and a for-sure son of his Samuel Givens Evetts who m'd Susannah Haynie and they lived in Dixon Springs/Smith County, TN. Has any of the other Evetts's done y-DNA testing or FF testing? We might be showing as cousins in the FF testing but cannot recognize each other due to name changes!

DNA, Anyone?

seitz157 — 2011-03-03 17:26:55Z

I had my nephew Keith Evetts DNA'd recently and he didn't match up with a single Evetts. He did match some Everett names. Have any of the rest of the male Evetts's done a DNA test? We are through William Caperton Evetts and James Harrison Evetts and Samuel Givens Evetts and George Evetts, going backwards.

Thomas F Evetts

TxOld300 — 2009-04-03 07:22:57Z

Looking for descendants of Thomas F. Evetts, son of Samuel G Evetts,Jr.& Mary P. Dodson of Coryell and Wise counties of Texas. Thomas died in 1929 and was the only child of Samuel and Mary to have a death certificate. He gave the full name of his mother and it is the only proper record I have found to document Mary Phebe Dodson's full name. I was hoping maybe there might be photos or other documents from the family.

I descend from Mary Phebe Dodson and Miles Allen, her first husband.

Re: PARALEE EVETTS married James Ivey

I haven't found their marriage date yet either.

Re: PARALEE EVETTS married James Ivey

kctyson1 — 2009-02-03 14:28:58Z

I found where Paralee married James Ivey on August 31, 1854 but haven't found the date she married David M. Stokes. I am only guessing based on the first child they had.

Thanks,
Karen

Re: Samuel Givens Evetts Jr. / TX.

betty13031 — 2008-07-27 22:59:36Z

I am also related to this branch of the Evetts family. My mother was an Evetts and Samues G Evetts Jr would have been my great, great, grandfather! Jesse Calvin Evetts was my grandfather. His father was William Milton "Bill" Evetts, who was the son of Samuel Givens Evetts, Jr.

Are you aware that there is a monument in Boonsville, TX to Samuel Evetts Sr.?

familysearch.org has lots of records on this branch of the family. It shows Samuel G. Evetts Sr father as George Evetts born abt. 1745 in NC but only lists his mother as "Mrs." George Evetts.

We must be related....huh?

WILLIAM CAPERTON EVETTS

seitz157 — 2006-05-20 16:28:14Z

Wm Caperton is my gg-grandfather. Have done extensive work on Evetts genealogy and related families. Am now trying to figure out where the name "Caperton" comes from....appears to be new to Evetts family with Wm.'s birth. May not ever know unless we find out more about Julian Price, Wm's mom. Have found several Caperton leads in TN and in VA....including some Wm. Caperton's. Have a clue? Contact at seitz@zeecon.com
Thanks!

Re: MOSES EVETTS

GereneLord15 — 2005-09-28 19:17:09Z

Do you know if Elizabeth Betsy Stewart who married Martin Evetts
has a sister, Mary Ann Stewart who married Richard Taylor?
They were living next door in the 1870 Independence Co AR.
Thanks for your reply
Gerene (great grandaughter of Mary Ann Stewart Taylor...she died in AR and Richard died in Sequoyah Co OK)

Re: MOSES EVETTS

GereneLord15 — 2005-09-28 19:17:09Z

Brenda, I have been trying to find Mary Ann Stewart-Taylor's parents and siblings for years...She married Richard Taylor in Dec 1851 in Meigs Co TN...(have never found her on 1850 Census) The family moved to Independence Co AR about 1868 and she is living next door to the James/Dicey Stewart Family and same area as Martin & Elizabeth Evetts.
Since her birthday is consistant she would fit right between Elizabeth & Calvin Stewart...
I know she belongs to the Independence Co Stewarts someplace but just cannot find proof where. I ordered some Ind. Co Microfilm at LDS yesterday and hopefully will find something, perhaps probate on James F & Dicy? Would really appreciate
your thoughts. Would you know anyone else in the Stewart Research that might have additional information?

Re: MOSES EVETTS

GereneLord15 — 2005-09-28 19:17:09Z

Brenda, thanks...I could sure use a break on this one...I don't think I mentioned that on the 1880 Scott Co Census that Mary Ann gave her mother's birthplace as GA and that is where Dicey
states she was born.
Thanks again for your offer to check your records...I will be hoping...

Re: MOSES EVETTS

You are right, she could possibly fit in between Elizabeth and Calvin. All of the places are the same as far as living etc. It's been awhile since I've done anything with the Stewarts, I'll look back through some of my hard copies and see if I can come up with some names we check with, to see if they can help any.

Email me @ LVMYGRKIDS@aol.com. I have a name and email address of a Stewart researcher, maybe she can help or knows of someone that might know.
I'm wondering if Mary Ann could have been a niece of James. He had 3 brothers and they all migrated about the same time.

Martha,

My husband's great grandparents were Parilee Evetts and Tommy L. Gray. I don't have a William David listed for Moses and Mary. Could you give his information so I could add him. I have all of the other children you listed. You don't by any chance have a maiden name for Mary? or a death date. I also, do not have a death date for Moses. These are things I haven't been able to find out.

Good to find a cousin, now and then.
