Helen Evans

I have an old studio photograph of Helen EVANS which was taken at the Shoemaker & Mowrey’s Studio in Ashland, OH in the 1880’s. Helen is just an infant at the time the photograph was taken. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding Helen and her family:

Helen Amelia EVANS was born 29 Jul 1888 in Rowsburg, OH to parents Cassius “Cash” M. EVANS (1844-1908) and Ellen Jane WEIKAL CAMPBELL (1849-1889). Helen was one of four children born to this couple including a sister Ferni or Fernie Ernani EVANS (1884-1886) and brothers Earl B. EVANS (b. 1884) and Clayton EVANS (1885-1897). Both of her parents were married previous and had additional children including Clarence Eugene EVANS (b. 1868); Charles CAMPBELL (b. 1869); Florence Nell CAMPBELL (1874-1964); and Clara C. CAMPBELL. Helen married Arthur A. BURNS (1888-1930) on 15 Jun 1911 in Clear Creek, OH and they had four children including Clinton Arthur; Florence Emma; Jean Elizabeth; and Ned Cortland BURNS, all born between 1913 and 1927. Helen died 16 Jan 1940 in Ashland, OH and is buried in the Ashland Cemetery in that city.

I would love to get this treasure back to family and would appreciate you contacting me if you are a member of this family or know someone who might be.

Thanks,
Shelley
