Biography

Kathy Evans is a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution.

Kathy Evans has Irish ancestors.

Kathy Evans is an Acadian

Kathy Evans is a Project Member of the Military and War subproject 1776

Kathy is a Voyager Guide for the Profile Improvement Project

Kathy helped improve some profiles in the GEDI Challenge.

Kathy has completed the Profile Improvement Project's Voyage

Kathy Evans participated with The Nor'Easters during the 2021 Connect-a-Thon, and added 103 connections.

Kathy Evans participated with The Nor'Easters during the 2021 Source-a-Thon, adding 78 sources to profiles.

Two paternal lines: Evans and Crowe to Counties Kerry and Clare in Ireland. Two maternal lines: Woodbury and Head to the 1620's and the original settlers of Massachusetts and Rhode Island.

I was born in Massachusetts, and lived there for 30 years. I then lived in the Denver, Colorado area for 6 years, in New Orleans for 1 year, in New Hampshire for 10 years, and retired to Maine.

My introduction to genealogy happened in 2010. A cousin I never knew existed sent a document to another cousin-in-law, and the document eventually arrived in my email. I didn't realize it, but I was looking at an Ahnentafel printout. I'm glad I worked my way through the many pages, because my mother was listed at the end of the report. My sister and I decided we had to figure out who all these people were. Both our parents had died by this time, so we were starting with a blank page. We learned that the markers in Beverly, Massachusetts, and the street names in Rockport, Massachusetts were for our ancestors. Genealogy has become my passion.

Since I started with genealogy just as records were becoming more widely available online, that's how I learned to do research. I am not a paper person, so I never created notebooks for family lines. WikiTree is the perfect solution for me.

I am a Daughter of the American Revolution, working on my 16th Patriot. Here are my proven Patriots, in order of verification:

Dear Kathy,

The Profile Improvement Project (PIP) is performing its first annual check-in with our project members. Please review the following and let us know if you are content where we have placed you or would like to be more involved.

We are in the process of transitioning to a team structure. There will be three participant PIP Teams to start -- The Maintenance Category Team, the Unknowns Team, and the Biography Team. There is also the Voyage Team which guides new Voyagers. See the Profile Improvement Project Teams for a brief outline of each team.

You're currently identified as a member of the Voyage Team and we are so grateful to have you there helping so many of our Voyagers. Please let us know if you are interested in working with any of the other Teams.

We would also like to invite you to join the email GoogleGroup. When you request to join, please be sure to include your Wiki ID. It isn't required; we also use the Profile_Improvement tag in G2G for Project announcements.

We thank you for all you do to help the Profile Improvement Project and WikiTree. The Project’s mission is to:

Make profiles beautiful! We clean up messy biography sections and sources, and try to set standards for attractive, useful, and well-written biographies, starting with those we manage.

We know you’re working on profiles *smile* We would like to hear about successes you’ve had toward the Project’s goals. We would also appreciate any feedback you might have to help us improve the Project. Please share your thoughts in a reply to this comment or privately via private message to either of us.

Sincerely,

Hi Kathy,

It’s time for our annual Ireland Project check-in! Please respond within the next two weeks to let me know:

If you are happy with the team you’re on or if you’d like to make a change. It is now required that all members with an Ireland project badge work on at least one of the project’s team(s), so if you’ve not yet signed up please do so in your reply to this check-in.

What you think the project is doing well, and what (if any) changes you would like to see us make? Are there any teams you would like to become more active in?

Would you be interested in helping to work on an Ireland Project newsletter?

Please give us some feedback on the use of google group and discord. Do you use one or both of these? If you don’t use either of them, what is the best way for us to ensure you receive project communications? If you would like to join us on either one, just let us know in your response and we will get you signed up.

Please respond to this message by posting a reply below or sending me a private message on WikiTree. If we don’t hear from you within two weeks, we will assume you are no longer interested in participating in the Ireland Project, and your badge will be removed. If you wish to reapply for membership later, we will be happy to have you back. Many thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you!

Sincerely,

Jen Hutton, on behalf of the Ireland Project

Curt Danforth III

Kathy, I found you after realizing you built the tables showing the family members on Charles Marble Adams Sr. (1817-1892). Also like the bold of purpose in the sources you did. Where did you get the notes on how to do the table style?

posted Mar 24, 2022 by Curt Danforth III

Kathy Evans

Hi Curt, I'm glad you like the tables. There are two ways to create tables. The method I used on Charles was from this page https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Mindy%27s_Working_Space_4

However, there is a new browser extension called WikiTree Sourcer [1] https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:WikiTree_Sourcer With this extension, when you are on a census record, you just go to the menu and it creates a table for you. Let me know if you need more help, I'll be glad to go into detail.

Congratulations Kathy! According to the relationship finder, it says you and I are 16th cousins three times removed (Uncertain). My goal is to find all the orphaned profiles of people whom I know are definitely my family and clean up their profiles and get them into "CERTAIN" status. Then, hopefully begin to connect to other family members managed by others. I am glad your name showed up in my feed! Happy WikiTreeing! :)

Hi Greg! According to the relationship finder Kathy and I are 16th cousins three times removed (Uncertain). And, you and I are 24th cousins three times removed (Uncertain). I joined WikiTree not that long ago and I'm just now understanding how to adopt profiles that I know for sure are my relatives. My goal is to clean up their profiles to get them into "CERTAIN" status, so I can get a 100% sure family tree connection. This project is getting less overwhelming as time goes by, but in the beginning I was lost! Ugh. :) I'm glad Kathy's name showed up on my feed, I wouldn't have found either of you.

Hi Kathy, nice job on James Lincoln, b 1715. I am correcting to add son James, who is mentioned in the will, although not among the first three sons who got the real estate. I am stuck on his wife Desire Gray or Gary. If you have any thoughts, please do your magic. I am going to attempt to merge two Desires. I think the name is probably Gray, not Gary, but didn't find her parents under either name.

Hi Kathy,

Thanks for having a big heart and adopting the Orphaned Profiles. This After Adopting Orphans FAQ explains the special attention adopted profiles will sometimes need.

Hi Kathy,

It's great to meet another Lane descendant here! My line comes from Josiah and Abigail's son Isaac, who actually isn't on here yet. I'm in grad school and I don't really have the time to manage this account, I just couldn't bear to see it without a manager. Let me know if you would like to take over management or co-manage it.

Welcome! Lauren-Kate

Thanks so much for reaching out, Lauren-Kate! The Lane's are an interesting clan, that's for sure. One of my Lane lines comes from Josiah's sister Ruth, who married Paul Morgan. From John Lane [Lane-868] and Dorcas, I have three lines of descent: Hepzibah, Joseph and Job.

I would be glad to be co-manager of Josiah.

I'm still working on my GEDCompare report, only about 1/4 through it. Once I've worked through that report I will be adding many more Lanes to the WikiTree! ~Kathy

Hi Kathy,

Thanks for taking the Pre-1700 Quiz!

Because pre-1700 ancestors are usually shared by many descendants, collaborating with members of the projects which coordinate them is essential.

Use the Pre-1700 Projects list to find one which best fits your research focus, whether time period, location, or topic. Review the project pages to learn about resources and guidelines as well as how to collaborate with the project members.

Can't find what you're looking for? Let me know, and I can make some suggestions! :-)

Remember to cite reliable sources in pre-1700 profiles you manage, or edit. (See:https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Pre-1700_Profiles#Cite_reliable_sources).

Hi, K!

Congratulations on becoming a Family Member of WikiTree! I'm a volunteer greeter, here to answer any questions you may have about WikiTree.

Welcome to the community! I hope your WikiTree journey will be as fruitful and enjoyable as mine has been.

Hi, K!

Thank you for adding your DNA Test information to your profile on WikiTree. Your information will be propagated to the profiles of your parents and your ancestors within about 24 hours of being added. It will also propagate to the profiles of the descendants of your ancestors, so they may see your information under the heading "DNA Connections" just as you can see theirs.

Getting started with DNA outlines how to proceed to use your DNA test information on WikiTree and DNA is a link to a collection of links about WikiTree's many features involving DNA.

The DNA Connections list on your profile will provide a visual way for you to find potential relatives on WikiTree who have also added their DNA test information. Using DNA tools at sites like GEDMatch.com, if you find a relative that matches your DNA sufficiently and you have genealogical sources for the intermediate relationships, you can mark the specific parental relationships back to the most recent ancestor that you both share as "confirmed with DNA." For details, guidance, and examples of how to properly document DNA confirmations, see DNA confirmation.

To be able to add profiles, you will need to upgrade (there is no cost). You can do this from your Upgrade page. Just answer the five questions, e.g. who you want to communicate with, if others can see your family tree, what surnames, locations, or topics interest you, etc, and click on the green box that says "Upgrade”.

Upgrading just means you will become a Family Member with the ability to work on your immediate ancestors to help us achieve our goal of joining all individual family trees into one global family tree.

I hope this helps! If you have any problems, let me know.

Take care!
