The 1860 federal census lists a 17-year-old Pennsylvania native named William E. Evans living in the Winnebago County, Illinois, home of Mathew and Nancy Evans. Also in the household are Samuel Evans, 26, and Mary J., 14. Listed next door is the family of 30-year-old Charles Evans. The 1863 draft registration for Iowa's Second Congressional District lists a 21-year-old William E. Evans as a resident of Boone County. In the 1885 census, Mathew and Nancy Evans appear as residents of Dickinson County, Iowa, living next to the families of Samuel and James Evans. Samuel Evans' obituary shows him to have been a resident of Okoboji (Dickinson County), Iowa. The family members mentioned in the documentary evidence seem to match with the names provided within the letters in this collection.

After his recovery, Evans was transferred to the Veteran Reserve Corps and assigend to guard duty in Washington D. C. Following the expiration of his term of service, Evans returned to Wisconsin, where he married Lucretia Sweet (1849-1924); the couple would have ten children. In 1873, the Evanses moved to Oregon, and soon afterward to Genesee, Idaho. The 1880 federal census lists the family as farmers in Nez Perce County. In 1885, Evans and his family moved a final time, to Washington.The territorial census of 1887 lists the  family in Whatcom County. During the Nez Perce War, Evans served as a first lieutenant of militia. William Evans died in Blaine (Whatcom County), Washington, on November 8, 1907, and was buried in Greenacres Memorial Park, Ferndale. While this William Evans' service in Company B, 6th Wisconsin can be confirmed through documentary evidence, his connection to family members mentioned in the letters within this collection could not be established."],"odd_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eThe guide to the Evans Family Letters by Special Collections and University Archives, Virginia Tech, is licensed under a CC0 (\u003ca href=\"https://creativecommons.org/share-your-work/public-domain/cc0/\"\u003ehttps://creativecommons.org/share-your-work/public-domain/cc0/\u003c/a\u003e).\u003c/p\u003e  "],"odd_heading_ssm":["Rights Statement for Archival Description"],"odd_tesim":["The guide to the Evans Family Letters by Special Collections and University Archives, Virginia Tech, is licensed under a CC0 (https://creativecommons.org/share-your-work/public-domain/cc0/)."],"prefercite_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eResearchers wishing to cite this collection should include the following information: [identification of item], [box], [folder], Evans Family Letters, Ms1993-015, Special Collections and University Archives, Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, Va.\u003c/p\u003e  "],"prefercite_tesim":["Researchers wishing to cite this collection should include the following information: [identification of item], [box], [folder], Evans Family Letters, Ms1993-015, Special Collections and University Archives, Virginia Tech, Blacksburg, Va."],"processinfo_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eThe processing and description of the Evans Family Letters commenced and was completed in October, 2023.\u003c/p\u003e  "],"processinfo_heading_ssm":["Processing Information"],"processinfo_tesim":["The processing and description of the Evans Family Letters commenced and was completed in October, 2023."],"scopecontent_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eThis collection consists of three letters from C.
