Comments: I have a Carrington mystery in my family. My mother's
estranged father was Marcellus
French Carrington (born July 2, 1891 in Halifax County, Virginia, to
Sarah and Charles). Mother
was born Elizabeth Hale Carrington 4-6-1934 to Marcellus and Ruth
Sevier Hale Carrington.
Marcellus and Ruth split while she was pregnant. He was in the Merchant
Marines, and he never
met his daughter. He disappeared completely shortly after that. He was
said to have another child
from an earlier relationship, but no one in the family had a clue as to
the identity of that child or its
mother. He was also rumoured to have died in a boiler explosion (he was
ship's engineer) around
1947 or 1948, but my grandmother never said who told her this. Another
family member believes
he died in a New York City hotel in 1942, but I'm not convinced. If you
are reading this and you
know what happened to my grandfather (or think we might be related),
PLEASE e-mail me.
