james bevis lived in sandgate, vermont; married a betsy steele in arlington, vermont; fought for the union in the civil war; and died around 1895. he's buried in a cemetery in west arlington, vermont right on route 313 near the turnoff to the road that leads to the tiny town of sandgate (last time i was there, there were no stores and the town was run out of someone's house). i've long since discarded my notes on james bevis, since he's no relation to my ancesters, but i do recollect that there were several children. his relations are scattered into western new hampshire and northwestern massachusetts. check with the town clerk in arlington, vermont for marriage and death records.
