The papers in this collection reflect the complicated, diverse Evans family. William Evans's papers consist of business correspondence relating to the Denver Tramway, real estate, mining, railroads and a cement company. His sister, Anne's, papers include references to her philanthropic activities as well as relationships with other family members. Diaries and correspondence describe the visits of cousins and friends to Anne Evans's Kuhlborne Ranch house. Other family members' papers are few but reflect their business interests and provide insight into their personal and professional lives.
