Hello Charlene and Linda,
From Harold B. Carruth's book, "Carruth Family," I found the following that
pertains to your messages:
Martha and Florence were children of Charles Darius Carruth and his wife Mary (Pike)
Hescock. They had 6 children. Charles had four children by his first wife Ada M.
Moulton. There is no further mention of Martha in the book except for that she was born
near 1901.
Charles' father was Darius Carruth who was born in Rutland, VT., near 1824. He died
in Mendon, VT., 09 May 1894. His first marriage was to Ellen Wilson and his second
marriage was to Lucinda A. Brown. There were four children by his first marriage that
included Charles Darius and there was one child by his second marriage. Darius had a saw
mill in Mendon, VT.
Darius had a sister named Hannah Davis Carruth who married Samuel Rice Brewer. Hannah is
shown as born near 1821 and died 09 May 1894 in Rutland, VT. She married Samuel in
Mendon, VT., 27 Feb. 1870.
Best Wishes,
Harvey Carrouth
