My "brick wall" is EDWARD EVANS who died in Nelson County, KY in 1843. On the 1810 and 1820 Nelson Co., KY Records EDWARD EVANS is listed as a physician. To date I have been unable to connect this Edward Evans to any parent or birth location. By studying those EDWARD EVANS associated with, I hope to learn more about his early history.

It appears EDWARD EVANS had a friendly relationship with the AYDELOTT family who came to Nelson Co., KY from Maryland.

EDWARD EVANS purchased land from JOSHUA AYDELOTT in 1806:

Record: Nelson County, Kentucky General Index (Grantee) to Deeds & Mortgages Volume I 1785-1875
Page Year Name of Grantee Name of Grantor Type Volume # Page

There is also:

Commissioner's deed to Edward Evans on the 1st Nov. 1806 of 200 acres per a suit in Chancery from Joshua Aydelott.

EDWARD EVANS also witnessed the will of GEORGE H. AYDELOTT , the father of the above JOSHUA AYDELOTT, in 1803:

Thank You for any help you are able to offer me. By tracing his association I hope to finally determine where EDWARD EVANS lived before arriving in Nelson Co., KY.
