1910 Census
This could be Evan following Amy's death in 1909 (possibly following the birth of Ellen and Richard) who are living with Aunt and Uncle John H Evans and Ellen Evans in Oneida County. Not sure if these are the correct children as you didn't mention a Richard.
Griffiths, Ev? aged 35 born Wales, parents born Wales. Boarder, Widowed, Occ Milk Pedlar.
Immigration Year 1895 but not very clear on image
Boarding with George and Sarah Jones in Rome, Oneida Co, NY

I have asked a family member and he says Ellen had a twin brother called Richard would it be possible to find anything about him if he had married and had children,he thinks that Evan had remarried at some point.Evan had a brother that had gone to America a few years before him Called John Griffith he came back to live to Wales and married and had children here,could both of them have come back together ,could you find out about John,where he lived in America and what was his occupation.

This is the only possible I can find for Richard
Griffiths, Richard, Lodger, aged 31, single place of birth New York, residence (1935), Rome, Oneida Co.
Occupation, Manager of a Telegraph Co.
Living Cortland, New York
Previously living with John H and Ellen Evans sometimes only Ellen with sister Ellen from 1910-1930, Rome, Oneida Co
There is a death for a Richard married to a Helen F Giffiths but the dob for that Richard is October 1910.
On tombstone for Amy Jones there is another child William looks like born 1903-1908
