Research of Kevin Everingham of MI, 2018, 2019;

1870 US CENSUS Hamilton Twp., Mercer, NJ (Page 30, June 27, 1870 house #250).. "Pearson Evernham 69, b.NJ, farmer,.. Mary Evernham 62, b.NJ,.. Hartshorn Evernham 34, b.NJ,.. Mary E. Evernham 32, b.NJ,.. Belinda Evernham 30, b.NJ,.. Emma Evernham 28, b.NJ."

1880 US CENSUS Hamilton, Mercer, NJ (Sheet 564D, house 9342794).. "Pearson Evernham 75, person sick or disabled at time of enumerator's visit? Cancer on lip, born in N.J, parents born in NJ,.. Mary 74,.. Hartshorn 45,.. Mary 42,.. Malinda 39." looks like cancer of the mouth or face could have been the cause for Pearson's death in 1881.

1885 STATE CENSUS Hamilton, Mercer County, NJ (Page 75).. "Mary Evernham, over 60,.. Hartshorn Evernham, 20-60,.. Mary E. Evernham, 20-60,.. Belinda Evernham, 20-60."

1895 STATE CENSUS Hamilton Twp, Mercer, NJ (Page 75, house #496).. "Hartshorn Evernham, 20-60,.. Mary Evernham, 20-60,.. Balinda Evernham, 20-60,.. George Kemberley, 20-60."

1899 Trenton Evening Times, Trenton, NJ, (Pg.1, March 14, 1899).. "Mrs, Mary Evernham, aged 91 years, widow of the late Pierson Evernham. died at 7 o'clock this morning at her home, near Crosswicks." This paper likely has more info about this obituary, but I have not seen this actual newspaper. This information comes from an online transcription.
