| fact sources and writings about this individual: (research of Kevin Everingham of Michigan 2014);
1850 CENSUS Monroe Twp. Middlesex, NJ (home #193)--- Elison Evernham 33, b.NJ,.. Sarah Mariah Evernham 26, b.NJ. living next door to Elison (home #192) was; William Evernham 49, wheelright, b.NJ,... Mary Evernham 44, b.NJ,... James Evernham 19, b.NJ,... Margaret Evernham 17, b.NJ"
1852 Middlesex, New Jersey Marriage Record... James A. Everham married Lydia Ann Buidine on December 29, 1852 at the First Presbyterian Church, Cranbury, Middlesex, NJ. The only record of this that I have seen is transcribed so I have not seen if the middle initial is truely "A" or a possible sloppy "H".
1853 Middlesex County NJ Birth Record... W. H. Everingham, male, b.11 September 1853 at Monroe township, Middlesex County, NJ, son of; James & Lydia Ann Everingham *This male is likely named WILLIAM after his grandfather, but that is not proven as far as I know. Since he doesn't show up in later records it is presumed that he died young.
1863 Birth Record, Middlesex, NJ .... Hartson Evernham, male, born September 9, 1863 at Monroe Townhip, Middlesex County, New Jersey.... Father: James Evernham, mother; Lydia A.
1868 Middlesex NJ Marriage (pg.246)...James Everham 35, and Margaret G. Stults, d/o Jacob Stults, married March 18, 1868 at Trenton, Mercer, New Jersey. both previously single. This is the only piece of evidence that I've found that suggests that maybe James A Everingham (b.1831) and James H. Everingham (b.1831) may be different people. However, Margaret's 1924 obituary seems to suggest otherwise.
1869 Mercer Co. NJ Birth Record... Emma Everham, female, b.30 July 1869 at Trenton, Mercer, NJ, d/o James & Margarett Everham.
Research of Kevin Everingham of MI, updated 2023;
1885 STATE CENSUS, Trenton, Ward 3, Mercer, NJ, family #514... "James Everingham,.. Margaret,.. Horatio,.. Harton,.. Ester,.. Emma,.. Elva." It is highly likely that Esther listed here is Horatio's wife who he had married in 1883, (not a sibling).. Elva may even be that couple's daughter.
1895 STATE CENSUS, 10th ward, Trenton, Mercer, New Jersey (Page 53).. "J.H. Everingham, >60,.. Margret Everingham, 20-60,.. Horatio Everingham, 20-60,.. Elva Everingham, 5-20." Horatio's wife Esther had died by 1890, he is shown here living with his parents along with 9 year old daughter Elva (b.1885). Horatio didn't remarry until 1898.
1900 US CENSUS Middlesex County, NJ.. "(Home #176) Ann E. Stults, b.1836 NJ, widow,.. (Home #177) James H. Everingham, 69, b.Feb 1831 NJ, married 33 yrs... Margaret Everingham wife, 58, b.April 1842, mother of 1 child."
1912 Perth Amboy Evening Newspaper, Oct 2, 1912 (Page 5 Cranbury section).. " Mrs. James Evernham spent part of the week with her daughter, Mrs. Jonathan Watt of Trenton."
same paper November 15, 1912.. (Page 5, Cranbury section) "Mrs. Margaret Evernham has been visiting Mrs. Ann Stults, of Railroad avenue, for a few days."
1913 Perth Amboy evening newspaper, Oct 18, 1913, Page 3... "Miss Adelaide Everingham and Miss Gertrude Harder are spending a few days with friends at Trenton. Mrs. James Evernham has been entertaining her daughter, Mrs. Jonathan Watt of Trenton for a few days." This bit of news seems to connect to this family Charles V. Everingham
1918 Perth Amboy evening news, Aug 2, 1918 (Page 5).. "(Cranbury) Mrs. James Evernham, of Trenton, is visiting Mrs. Lewis Stults and later will spend some time with Mr. and Mrs. D.C. Mershon. Ernest L. Stults presided at the organ of the second church on Sunday."
1924 Greenwood Cemetery, Trenton, Mercer Co., NJ..
"Margaret Gertrude Stults Evernham, d.2 Feb 1924.
1924 Obituary Trenton Evening Times; "Mrs. Margaret Gertrude Evernham 82 died Feb 3, 1924 at Trenton, NJ.. husband James H. Evernham... this lists her children as; Mrs. Mary Johnston, Mrs. Jonathan Watt, Mr. Horatio Evernham & Hartson Evernham." This information brings James and his children together with those born to Margaret and those born before being married to her. This is important evidence that James was previously married When Margaret married James, Horatio was 12 and Hart was 4 years old.
unfortunately, I have not been able to find this family in much CENSUS data.
