Hello

My greatest grandfather John Evans ( DOB 1821 +/-) with the 84th foot (yorks/ Lancs Regt). arrived in India from UK in 1845 later moved on to be the Superintendent of Records DPW at Arcot. His wife was Maria Mitchell(married in India).. His children are Susan, Mark, Richard Sarah, John William, Thomas. John's father was Thomas Evans(School teacher). I dont know anything about his birthplace / siblings.

Any relation?
