William Everly





Who was William Everly and what was his relationship (if any) to my presumed ancestor, Mary (Everly) Roark?


William Everly was enumerated in the United States Census, 1810  Kentucky Muhlenberg Greenville, next to Jesse Everly.

On March 26, 1815, William Everly married Polly Bates in Muhlenberg County.

David Evans and William Roark (securities) were also my ancestors.  The information below indicates a close relationship to the Everly family:

"Caroline Everly and Emily Everly orphans of William Everly deceased. Chose Jesse Everly as their guardian.  David Evans and William Roark were sec."

In 1850 a Caroline Everly, age 24, who was born in Kentucky, was living in the Hugh Martin household in Muhlenberg County.  The Martin and Roark families were related.  Do not know what happened to Emily.

Still working on the relationship (if any) between William Everly and Mary (Everly) Roark.
