My cousin found Evelyn referred to in a column regarding our
3ggrandmother's death in 1904. This morning he found an 1908 obit in the
Crawford Blade of another lady that said she lived in Evelyn.

( A SAD DEMISE)
Died at her home near Evelyn, Monday Jan, 13, 1pm Mary G. Beloved wife of
J. Lee Freeman. The remains were shipped to Jefferson, Tx. The childhood
home of the deceased besides the husband she leaves a father, mother,
sister and host of friends to morn her loss. Mrs. Freeman was a true good
woman and was loved best by those who knew here intimately. The bereaved
husband has the sympathy of the entire community in his great sorrow.
Jan 31, l908 cb )

Apparently there is no record of this area except in the old new newspapers.

Does anyone know a long time resident of the old Day County area that might
have knowledge of Evelyn.

Thank you very much,
Rochelle
