My gg grandfather Henry Carrothers/Carothers came to this country from Fermanagh C0,
Ireland in abt 1835 and located in Dupage County, Ill. His father was Alexander
Carrothers and his Grandfather Wm. Hugh Carrothers born in Edinburgh Scotland. We know
that he had one sister Jane Carrothers who married Robert Armstrong in Ireland. Henry
changed the spelling of his name from Carrothers to Carothers when he came to America. We
know there were other siblings, brothers we feel, but unable to locate any information on
the sibilings in Ireland. Henry married Hannah Mary Buck from Ballston SPA, Saratoga Co.,
New York in Dupage Co., Ill in 1845. Can any one be of any help in locating the other
sibilings or more information on this family in Ireland..
