Help with AA Evans, Cirencester... Details... Please...

[Prevans2]

We're trying to get my Dad some details on his Dad's family.  We know my Grandfather was born in Cirencester in 1884, we know his immediate family and tracked through the census ... mostly through work a lady did on here about 10 years ago.

My Dad was the youngest of many born in 1939.  We already know of family connections to the Pierpoints and relatives across the 'Empire'.

Full name was Albert Austin Evans, his Dad was Austin F Evans (born about 1854) and is mother Alice (also born 1854)...

Thanks

Pete

Hi

We know my Grandfather was born in Cirencester in 1884, we know his immediate family and tracked through the census

Can you clarify exactly what type of info you are looking for so we don't duplicate what you already have

Albert Austin Evans
Baptism Date:   29 Aug 1883

So he was born 1883 not 1884.

Thank you both for getting back on this.  And the correction on the birth year. 

We have managed to find details of my Grandfather's family based on the national census from 1871 to 1911.  From what we know he moved from Cirencester to Birmingham at some stage.  He was a P.O.W in WW1 and died in late 1960s.  One of his brothers (Frank) ended up out in Western Australia where he and his son served in the Australian Army.  I know he won a medal at the Yellow School in Cirencester (now a girls school) for sports ... I have the medal. 

I saw some details back to 1600s.. on an old post, not sure if connected to my version of the Evans clan.

Thanks again.

Pete

Hi Pete

Are you trying to get info backwards from 1871.  If so - could you post the full 1871 details you already have so we can try earlier censuses for you

[Prevans2]

Sorry for delay, whilst I was busy falling asleep... my much better half (Jill) managed to find his Great Grandfather .. John (married to Emilia) and their 12 children.  John was born in 1804, Cirencester.  But to answer your question, yes trying to see how far back we can get.  She also found his Dad (Austin) and Grandad (Richard).  Thanks again Pete.
