Roark And Evans Security For Everly

Posted on a message board [Everly] by a fellow Roark descendant [ancestor William Roark's wife may have been Elizabeth Everly]:

Kentucky Historical Society Quarterly "The Heritage" Vol. 8, page 44:

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

This Caroline Everly?  The Martins are related to the Roarks and the Roarks are related to the Evans'.

The Millar Family In Ilkley

My great-grandmother's cousin, George Millar, was born (11 February 1861) in Ilkley, England, per his Spanish-American War record.  (The family moved to the United States by 1870). The records below were found via Ancestry.com.

May 5 

George Son of Andrew & Jane Miller 

Ilkley Wells House Lodge --Gardener

John Snowden, Vicar

England, Select Births and Christenings, 1538-1975 Birth, Marriage, & Death

Peter Millar (Moir-Miller on the record), George's brother, was also born in Ilkley (28 June 1863).  His father, Andrew, was still the gardener at Wells House Lodge.

Andrew Millar was a gardener at Ilkley's Wells House Lodge; Charles Darwin was a visitor there in 1859.  Was Andrew Millar there during Mr. Darwin's visit?  I don't know.  

Andrew Millar and Jane Moir/More were married on November 19, 1860, in Inverarity and Methy, Angus, Scotland.  Was Jane an employee at Wells House Lodge before her marriage and is that where she met Andrew?  Probably not, but it's a possibility.
