Volunteers, Company H. Mustered out 15 Jul 1864.
From The Blaine Journal of 15 Nov 1907:
William Evans, a well known and respected resident of this vicinity and of
Whatcom county, died at his home east of Blaine last Saturday morning at 8:30
o'clock. Heart failure, brought on by old age and sickness of the last few
months, was the immediate cause of his death. Funeral services were conducted at
his late home on Monday afternoon by Rev. Berringer, of the Methodist church of
Custer, and the interment was at the Masonic cemetery in this city; the Masonic
lodge having charge of the services at the grave. Mr. Evans was born in New
Town, Wicklow county, Ireland, on August 8, 1827, and was seventh in a family of
ten children. At an early age his family moved to Canada and settled in
Middlesex county near Toronto. When about twenty years of age Mr. Evans left
Canada and moved to Minnesota, later going to Wisconsin.
