Rufus Evans1
b. December 1879
| Birth* | December 1879 | Rufus Evans was born about December 1879 in West Virginia.1 |
| (Son) Census US 1880 | 22 June 1880 | Rufus was enumerated on the 1880 census taken on 22 June 1880 in the household of his parents in Holly, Braxton County, West Virginia. He was reported to have been born the December before, and was five months old.1 |
| (Son) Death | 2 September 1893 | If he was still living at the time, Rufus was 13 years old when his father died on 2 September 1893 from sepsis, commonly known at the time as blood poisoning, at about age 47. His death left Rufus's mother with at least nine children whose ages ranged between a married son of 23 years and a one-year-old baby.2,3 |
| (Son) Marriage | 3 November 1898 | Five years after his father's death, his mother married a second time to George W. Dillon on 3 November 1898.4 |
| Research Notes* | | We have not found any records for Rufus after he was enumerated with his parents, at the age of five months, on the 1880 census. His brother, George, died in 1883 at almost 7 years of age, and his father died in 1893 at age 47. We believe Rufus may also have died before the 1900 census was taken. His mother and unmarried siblings were enumerated together that year, without Rufus, with his mother's second husband, George W. Dillon.5,6 |
