• Notes

  Tho coming from a dyed-in-the-wool Baptist family, Evan joined the church of his wife’s faith and was a consistent Methodist member of Salem church, of which church all his children became members and in which cemetery all are buried except John and Robert who lie in Kentucky and Virginia respectively. Evan and Amanda lived together for 60 years, 6 months and 14 days. Obituary on 23 Sep 1897 says- {Rollings- Mr. Evan Rollings, one of Lancasters oldest and most highly esteemed citizens, died at an early hour last Wednesday morning at his home in Oakhurst. He was a man of remarkably strong constitution and enjoyed good health the greater part of his long and useful life. It was only a month or so before his death that his health began to give way. He was in his 85th year, having been born in Chesterfield County the 19th of February, 1813.- Lancaster Review. We share the sorrow of the bereaved. Brother Rollings was a man to be mourned- one with a heart of sympathy for men and unwavering faith in God.} [1, 4]
