Priscilla was born about 1704. Priscilla Moore ... She passed away about 1768. [1]
Priscilla Moore married Samuel Evans on Dec. 7, 1738.
"An old tradition, dating back perhaps over a hundred years, is that Samuel Evans had twenty-two (in some sources, twenty-four) children by two wives. From various records we know that his first wife was named Sarah. She is named in deeds through 1731. Samuel’s last deeds, in 1768, indicate that his wife was then named Priscilla.
It is generally believed that she is the same as Priscilla Moore, who married a Samuel Evans in Ann Arundel County on December 7, 1738."
