Biography
Born in Charleston, he pursued classical studies, engaged in business, and served in the War of 1812 as a first lieutenant, major, and inspector general. He was brevetted lieutenant colonel for gallant conduct at New Orleans.

Evans and served from May 11, 1858, to December 2, 1858; he was not a candidate to fill the vacancy. He died in Charleston in 1867; interment was in St. Michael's Churchyard.
