"He was a man of sterling integrity and a radical advocate of the right."
The reference given for this does not even mention Robert M. Evans.
Robert M. Owens lived in New Harmony and some of the Rapp-Owen community came with him. The Rapp-Owen community in New Harmony was founded as a commune.
Robert M. Evans household included two free colored persons in 1830.
I see no support for Robert M. Evans being a "radical advocate of the right".
Would the labels of "Right" and "Left" even apply then as they do today? During his time "radical advocate of the right" could have meant he was a supporter of a monarchy.

Year of death
editWithin the article and indeed, within its footnoted sources, there are conflicting reports on his year of death. Some say 1842 and others 1844.
Either the contradiction should be addressed within the article or an editorial stance should be taken in favor of one year over the other, in my opinion.
