I am hoping someone can help me. I am trying to find out a will for
Nathan Evans. He was born 24 Jun 1804 in Belmont County and died 27
Sept 1879 in Cambridge, Guernsey County. Buried in South Cemetery in
Cambridge. I find the following online:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EVANS, Nathan, a Representative from Ohio; born in Belmont County,
Ohio, June 24, 1804; county clerk of Belmont County in 1827 and 1828;
taught school; studied law; was admitted to the bar in 1831 and
commenced practice in Hillsboro, Ohio; moved to Cambridge, Ohio, in
1832; mayor of Cambridge in 1841; prosecuting attorney of Guernsey
County 1842-1846; elected as a Whig to the Thirtieth and Thirty-first
Congresses (March 4, 1847-March 3, 1851); was not a candidate for
renomination in 1850; resumed the practice of law in Cambridge; again
mayor of Cambridge 1855-1857; judge of the court of common pleas
1859-1864; resumed the practice of law; died in Cambridge, Ohio,
September 27, 1879; interment in South Cemetery.

Other than this I haven't really been able to find anything else
online. I do find a few genealogies online but no "proof" that this
is the Nathan Evans I am looking for and hope that a will would
clarify who his descendants are and give me the "proof" I need.

Thanks so very much in advance for any and all help!
