evans family

[nitsuj]

Hi Folks,

I have just come across your post and signed up - I am part of the Evans Family from Delgany/Greystones - I have been working on my family tree for the last few years - Unfortunatly I have left Ireland before I started so its taking me longer to do it that expected - I have just posted an updated version of my tree on Ancestry, which in the last 2 months I have got farther than the ast 2 years - Also if you check out www.nationalarchives.ie the 1911 census is now online and has a lot of infomation on it.

Believe it or not I actually grew up in Powerscourt and I am aware of some Evans living and working on the estate, I have not managed to fit them into my tree (Yet) but I also have a lot of blanks still to fill out.

Please check out my tree and feel free to contact me for any info.

just to update on how things are going
i was looking for my dads brother jack (john), who i didnt know existed until last year, for a totally different side project
i was informed he died at 14/15 in either 1941/1942
but have discovered that there is no record of his death
so the plot thickens and the search goes on

Hi Ann Marie,

Would this be Julia Evans born 9 th Apr 1886, and died 31 Mar 1966 in Wicklow Town? What other information do you have, I may be of some help to you.

Hi Julia,

Yes, her daughter Margaret was my grandmother.  Julia's husband Thomas was drowned in 1947, I believe.  I would like to know anything at all that you might know about her, and her relatives. I know that her father Earnest was gameskeeper at Powerscourt?

Thanks very much,

Anne-Marie
