Eleanor Phyllis Evans 1927

None of my information is on computer. I'm not good enough to do lists with columns etc. What is your home address in Spain where I can send the hard  copy? 

As for photos, the ones I have of the Evans family are mostly after 1948. That is when I met them for the first time when my ex husband took me to Wales in search of my father. I do have some Evans photos from the early twenties. 

 

And what I was going to send was most dates of the generations, into the 5th, with names.
What I see from your website is wonderful with bits of antidotes. Do I understand you do this as a business because it certainly is impressive! 
 I have some dates which are different from yours. As you mentioned, I'm older than you thought - born 1927. I have photos taken in Bermuda when I was 2 or 3 with my father. I have no recollection when he left, but it could not have been before 1930. After my grandfather died, my mother, grandmother, uncle and I moved to Washington DC. 
Some of the Potter family came from Lancaster, Pa., but the original Potter landed in Charleston, SC having come from Northern Ireland. My grandmother's family, Vincent came from Italy and France by way of the islands and then to southern Virginia. Part of that family,  Steele, founded Mimniapolis. There was a Revolutionary navel captain, Joshua Barny, who died in battle in Mediterranean and Samuel Chase, Supreme Court judge who was a signer of the Declaration of Independence. 
Lots of info into Elizabeth Potter Evans Stoddard. And yes, my grandmother was quite something , but also a lovely, gentle woman. Perhaps that is the way she should be remembered. 

1927. Eleanor Phyllis Evans was born to Richard Evans & Elizabeth Potter in Paget, Bermuda. Her parents had married in Bermuda Cathedral on 29/5/1924.

1928. She, English, 9 mths, born Paget Bermuda, was on a ship from Hamilton Bermuda to New York . Seemingly accompanied by Eldon H Trimingham, 39 English, born Paget, occpn Moh t?? & or T H Hastings Outerbridge, 49, M E P, and a 19 yr old African nurse, Alice Wilkinson

~1930. Her father returned to England - all contact with him seemingly lost and then the war intervened. One letter with the address of Pentwyn survived and this enabled Eleanor to trace her grand parents back in Wales, in 1949, although her father had died in 1945

After my grandfather died, my mother, grandmother, uncle and I moved to Washington DC.

1940. Seemingly not in 1940 US Census , but an Elizabeth Potter Stoddard is!, aged ~35? , with a husband : this is her mother . She married Joseph Marvin Stoddard ~1937 as Elizabeth Potter Bristol, not Evans!. After divorcing Richard Evans~1930 she had married John G Bristol, but then divorced him in Reno, Nevada in 1935 .

He had been married to Constance Edwards in Marylebone 1937 in the UK before he emigrated. ( cannot find him in 1939 register, but Constance Hawkins(Baynham) 1915 divorced is living in Kensington}" At her request we were able to confirm that in BDM records in Bristol Central Library.  He had erased that fact from conversation with her".
