   JOHN E. EVANS, farmer, P. O. Kenton, was born on the old homestead, in
Delaware County, Ohio, January 7, 1847. He is a son of John and Maria Evans,
with whom he had come to Hardin County, where they settled. He is next to the
youngest son living, and twin brother to David C. Evans. He was reared on the
homestead, in Buck Township, and secured a fair education from the common
schools. On February 22, 1876, he married Miss Jennie, a daughter of Francis B.
and Nancy (Conner) Slagle, and a native of Ross County, Ohio, born March 3,
1852. No children have blessed this union. Mrs. Evans' parents had settled in
Pleasant Township when she was three years old, and where she attained
womanhood. Mr. Evans resided on a part of the homestead until November 30, 1881.
He owns 160 acres of land besides eighty-one and a half near Silver Station,
given him by his father. He is engaged in farming and stock raising, making
sheep a specialty of the latter. Mrs. Evans is a member of the Methodist
Episcopal Church of Grant Station. Mr. Evans is a Democrat in politics, and is
now serving as Township Trustee and School Director.
