I believe my Carothers had changed their name from Schroeder to Carothers. My
gggrandfather was Joseph Carothers and they lived in the west end of Pittsburgh. They
lived in Elliot and some are buried in St. Martins cemetary. They belonged to St Martins
church a german church. I have heard they were from Alscace Loraine at one time...I
haven't been able to confirm the name change. My grandfather was William Philip
Carothers born in 1891 in Pennsylvania. He married a Mary Agnes Welsh. Maybe you can
check Elliot, Allegheny Co, Pennsylvania and see if you find the Carothers you are looking
for.
