Do you remember my original post about the family of James Evans and his wife Sally Garret – my Messy Family? Well, after a couple of weeks of descendancy research, I have not found anything to either support the family OR to remove children from the James Evans family on FamilySearch.
So far, I have only one source connecting one of the four Polly/Mary Evans to the parents James Evans and Sarah Garret. That source is a biography of William T. Thompson in a Wapello county, Iowa history.
The subject of this sketch was reared on a farm, and on the 30th day of October, 1842, in Warrick County, Ind., was united in marriage to Miss Polly Ann Evans. Mrs. Thompson was born July 25, 1821, and is the daughter of James and Sarah (Garret) Evans. Her father was a farmer and moved with his family from Indiana to this State, where he remained a short time and then returned to Indiana, where himself and wife subsequently died.

T. Thompson; Digital copy, Archive.org, https://archive.org/details/cu31924050414295/page/n5/mode/2up viewed online 27 July 2022.
Without any type of source connecting the other three Polly/Mary Evans to parents James and Sally Evans, I have removed them from the family, making them floating trees.
Below is what I’ve put together for the family of Polly Hannah Evans and her husband Moore McIntosh.

That leaves Mary Ann Evans (1826-1911). Since I could not find any information on her in Warrick County, Indiana, I removed her from James Evans family. However, I discovered another Mary Ann Evans on FamilySearch with the same dates. This Mary Ann Evans is shown as the daughter of James Evans and Mary Ann Hardin.
Now that I’ve removed those three Polly/Mary Evans from the family, the structure of the James Evans family is more plausible.
