I don’t think the theory of evolution rests solely on geological record, although I suppose it was important to its forming. You seem to be saying that you want an account of all possible instances of evolution before you can accept it, but that is impossible.

Further, this is not how science works. Scientific discoveries are induced from a finite set of experiments and observations. What you’re saying sounds like “I can’t accept the theory of gravity because I haven’t seen every instance falling objects. There are gaps.”

And finally polemically, do you support the theory of resurrection? That would be curious, since there is no evidence supporting that belief.
