-General William Evans, a son of Nathan, the second, by his second marriage, was bom in 1804, grew up to manhood and married Miss Sarah Ann Godbold, daughter of General Thomas Godbold; settled down at the place just north of Marion, and went to farming ; he succeeded well in his chosen occupation and amassed a large property; he had only two sons, James Hamilton and William Thomas ; the latter is now the Sheriff (second term) of the county; and seven daughters, viz: Catharine, Mary, Eliza Jane, Louisa, Ann M., Rosa and Margaret.
...
General Evans' daughter, Louiza, married, first, a Mr. McEachern, of North Carolina; by him she had two daughters, when McEachern died. The widow, in a few years, married Rev. W. C. Power, an itinerant Methodist minister, and by him, I think, she has six children, three sons and three daughters; one daughter and two sons, W. C. and John M., married, but do not know to whom. Rev. W. C. Power married in 1867. He has continued in the itinerancy thence to the present time ; stands high in the Conference, has filled many important stations, has been a Presiding Elder for twenty years ; he is a close thinker and an able minister, a very methodical man. I have heard it remarked by several that he ought to have been a bank president—he is a good financier. The two McEachern daughters both married; the eldest, Lilly, married John M. Power, a nephew of the Rev. W. C. Power; I do not know what has become of them; the younger McEachern daughter, Mary, married a Mr. Tesky, of Charleston; he is a merchant in his home city, and is said to be a prosperous man. ;
