Ecclesiastic career
In 1885 he was curate of St Margaret's Church, Ipswich. In 1894 he became rector of the Cambridgeshire village of Rampton, Cambridgeshire, a post he held until 1928.
Antiquarian activities
In 1885 Evelyn-White relaunched the East Anglian, an antiquarian journal which was a revival of an earlier journal, The East Anglian Notes and Queries, founded by Samuel Tymms in 1858 under the auspices of the Suffolk Institute of Archaeology. Evelyn-White was involved with the Cambridge Antiquarian Society until 1900, when he had a disagreement with them; he then established the Cambridgeshire & Huntingdonshire Archaeological Society largely by himself.[1]
In 1930 he retired to Felixstowe, where he died at Wolsey Gardens in 1938.[1]
