Looking for information on an Andrew Carothers & Mary Given his wife. I
have one daughter for this couple - Elizabeth Carothers b. 21 Mar 1831. She
married 14 Jun 1866 in Sacramento, CA to Andrew Hamilton Witherspoon, and
she died 22 Nove 1881 in West Virginia. I do not have a place of birth but
I suspect that her parents were from PA, Cumberland or Franklin Co. (or
other counties along the MD border). Suspect that Andrew Carothers may
indeed be the son of Andrew Carothers and Mary his wife (poss. nee
Patterson). If this is the case then Elizabeth Carothers and her husband
Andrew Hamilton Witherspoon would have been first cousins. While they were
married in 1866 in Sacramento CA, their first child Andrew Carothers
Witherspoon was born 4 Aug 1867 and was christened 2 Dec 1867 at Falling
Springs Presbyterian Church in Guilford, Franklin Co., PA.
Thanks for any help with this Carothers family.
