Excerpt from The Evelyns in America: Compiled From Family Papers and Other Sources, 1608 1805 Since the private publication, in 1879, of the "Memoir and Letters of Captain William Glan-ville Evelyn," the Editor has obtained a copy of an historical pamphlet, written by the late Sebastian F. Streeter (recording Secretary of the Maryland Historical Society), and published by the Society in 1868. It relates to the proceedings of George Evelyn, who was the eldest son of the first of the name of Evelyn who emigrated to Virginia. This pamphlet, with some additional information found in the Public Record Office of London, concerning the Expedition of Thomas Yong and Robert Evelin (the younger brother of George) to Virginia, the letters of Lieutenant-Colonel Wm. Harcourt from America during the years 1776-7, various short journals of British Officers during the war of the Revolution, and some additional notes, &c., are all - with the above-mentioned "Memoir and Letters of Captain Evelyn," - comprehended in the present volume, under the title of "The Evelyns in America." The family of Evelyn (or Evelin, as the name was anciently spelt), is supposed to have sprung from the Norman house of Ivelin or Evelin, which was connected with the Lusignans of Cyprus.
