Jay was the son of Julia and John Evans. Brothers and sisters: Ottis, Gertrude, and Crowley.

Jay was married twice. His first marriage was to Rachel Ann Loflin in Anadarko on November 18, 1925. Jay and Rachel had one child, Billy Jay.

Jay's second marriage was to Vella Irene Butler on March 4, 1929 in Anadarko. Jay and Vella had one child, Helen June Evans, born June 2, 1933. Jay and Vella had been married just five years at the time of his death, leaving Vella to raise their 8 month old daughter.

Jay and his brother Ottis had been working in the field all day and had drunk all their water. Ottis tried to tell Jay not to drink the water of a nearby spring as it was unfit to drink. However, Jay did not listen to him and drank the water which ultimately caused his death at the age of 29.
