1891 Syracuse Weekly Express Newspaper, Thur, July 30, 1891.. "Charles Everingham of Jamesville was brought to the Station House on Thursday by Detective Savenukes, who is employed by the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad company, and who charged him with arson. The accused lives at Jamesville and is foreman of the Dunlap lime and plaster mills there. On July 21st the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western freight house at Jamesville was partly burned and Everingham is accused of having fired it. He is about fifty years old."

Charles Everingham was brought to the insane asylum from the Onondaga county Penitentiary by Deputy Sheriff John C. Kratz Saturday afternoon. Everingham was awaiting trial for arson, but he was undoubtedly insane when he committed the crime and violently so during his confinement."

1892 also not known if this is the same Charles, also from Jamesville...The Express, Syracuse, New York Newspaper, Thursday, February 18, 1892. TWAS A BAD COMPANION, A Two-Gallon Jug of Whiskey Misled Mr. Everingham Charles Everingham of Jamesville drove to town Friday in a bob-sleigh and bought a two-gallon jug of whiskey. Later in the day he attracted considerable attention. He had drunk often from the jug and was on his knees in the sleigh, his arms and head hanging helplessly over the dash board. When near St. Paul's cathedral he fell out of the sleigh, but managed to crawl back again and occupied the same position. The team stopped, as if by instinct in front of the Station House, and Everingham was locked up, while the team was sent to the Candeo House barn. Saturday Everingham was reprimanded for intoxication and was discharged.
1892 STATE CENSUS DeWitt,ED1, Onondaga, NY ... Mary Everingham 40, b.IRE, Harvey Everingham 18, laborer,.. Bertie Everingham 6.

Mary Evringham, head, 64, born Ireland, 60 years in the United States,.. Harvey, son, 28 b.US, Automobile Worker,... Bert(hard to read), son 17, b.US, Machinist.

I believe that Mary may have married a Mr. MILES after 1905 since Harvey and Bert are mentioned as half brothers of Charles H. Miles who died in 1937.
Heart attack proves fatal to Charles H. Miles Charles H. Miles, 77, died suddenly about 2:30 pm yesterday at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Duell, Pine St. ... surviving are three daughters Mrs. harry Young, Mrs. Thomas Sullivan; and one son Rowley all of this village; two half sisters, Mrs. David Dunlop, Syracuse, and Miss Hattie miles, Gloversville; two half brothers, Burt Everingham of Virginia and Harve Everingham, Syracuse.
