A Methodist missionary who worked first among the Ojibwe and later among the Cree peoples, Evans devised (initially for Ojibwe) the Canadian Aboriginal Syllabic script which is still widely used in writing Cree and Inuktitut. One of his early publications in Cree was the 1841 "Cree Syllabic Hymn Book".
