EVISON family
« on: Tuesday 07 February 06 06:14 GMT (UK) »
I am trying to track down details of an EVISON family, believed to be living in Lincolnshire at the end of the 19th century. Unfortunately I have very little information to go on. John EVISON was one of at least three brothers, and was orphaned while young. He became a farmer in Lincolnshire, before moving to Sheffield. He married Florence, and they had three children; Fred, James and George, probably born around 1910.

This is a long shot because I have no further information, but if anyone out there can help I would appreciate it.

Many thanks Martin

Thanks Bee.

I have absolutely nothing on this family beyond that shown on my post, so you have given me a good start. At least I can look for a birth in Tetford around 1872, and find Johns parents?  Maybe it opens up a whole new set of families for me.

Thanks again.

Hi Martin.

I've not got a clue whereabouts Tetford is in Lincolnshire but Freebmd has a birth entry for a John Henry Evison in the September 1/4 1871 Horncastle 7a 496.

Tetford is about 4 miles from Horncastle.

1881 census has

John Evison 9 Scholar (Pauper), Horncastle
in Horncastle Workhouse

This could be Charles in 1871

3383/45
Tetford
Charles EVISON 23 Groom, Louth
Lucy 24 Mumby
Mary 3 New Bolingbroke
Charles 1 Tetford

Lucy EVISON buried Tetford  14 Dec 1877 (31)

A Charles EVISON was buried in Louth 9 Nov 1879 (34)

Hi Martin.
This may not be of any help to you but my 2xgreat grandfather Charles Vessey married Eliza Evison at le Burg(I believe this is not far from Horncastle) in 1838. She was the daughter of William Evison .They settled  in Horncastle and had 10 children.Eliza was born 1818 in Croft.Lincolnshire.

Hi Martin,

I'm the grandson of George Evison (son of John Evison).

I've got some info you may be interested in.
