All the Information I have on Jason B. Evans and his family

Jason was the father of my Great Grandmother Nancy J. EVANS. She was married to James A. NAIL. Their daughter Julia NAYLES (James changed the family name around 1892) was my Grandmother and she married James Arthur REDMOND. Their son James Ray REDMOND was my father.

The following information is all I have on Jason

In the John and Ann(CROMER) WOOD household there is a notation that their daughter Emeliza WOOD married a Jason B. EVANS on 25 Dec 1865 in Laurel Co. Ky. The Laurel Co. Marriage Index lists a J. EVANS married a EMILY WOOD on 5 Dec 1865. It is believed that this is probably the same persons and the difference in the dates, 5 Dec 1865 and 25 Dec 1865 were most likely the date of license and actual date of marriage.

In the 1910 Laurel Co. Ky. Census, Pittsburg Town; Household 211/214 is this listing

EVANS, Jason B. H/M/65/NC Listed as married 2 times, Farmer Elizabeth MARION W/F/39/KY (2nd wife??) no children MARION, Robert NEP/M/12/KY (Nephew)

Laurel Co. Marriage Index 1826-1937: EVANS, Jason B. to Marion, Elizabeth 17 Mar 1910

Also listed in the same Marriage Index is: EVANS, Nancy J. to NAIL, James A.
