Sarah Ponleva \u201cEva\u201d Berrien Eve (1841-90) spent most of her life in Richmond Co., GA, near Augusta. Ruth Whitehead, whose BV also survives, was her cousin. [link to Ruth’s]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The daughter of an affluent planter living near Augusta, Eva attended a school for young women, played and sang music from popular operas as well as simple ballads, and had her music collection bound into at least one volume.

Her mother served as Vice Regent of the Mount Vernon Ladies Association, and her mother was Sarah Lowndes Berrien Casey. Composer A. Iverson of Columbus dedicated \u201cWhen the Birds to the South\u201d (printed in GLB, 16 October, 1838, p. 188) to Eve\u2019s aunt, Martha Deloney Berrien.
Eva served as a bridesmaid at Ruth\u2019s wedding in 1858, and in October 1863 married Ruth\u2019s widowed husband (Charles Colcock Jones, Civil War mayor of Savannah). On Eva, see Rozier, ed., The Granite Farm<\/em>, 114.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
