Hello, I am hoping you may be able to shed some light on a distant relative called
Margaret Carruthers who married William Porteous(1723-19th December 1807). He was born at
Ecclesfechan, Dumfrieshire, Scotland.
Margaret was born in 1751 and they had 2 sons.
Margaret died on 26 March 1823 at Ecclesfechan. Apparently both William Porteous and
Margaret were buried in the Hoddam Churchyard, Dumfrieshire, Scotland.
Your information about the history of the Carruthers name is very interesting. Thanks. I
just thought you might have some information that will be helpful to me. I am wtiting from
Australia!! Best Wishes, Pamela
