Hello from Oregon. I found on page 122 of the of the book"RECORDS OF
CARRUTHERS FAMILY " by A. Staley Carruthers that a Catherian Carruthers,
Dtr. of Alexander Carruthers, married a John Salkeld of Holm Hill. They
had son ,Louis Carruthers salkeld who lived on the family farm till 1922.
The book also mentions a Major Carelton Salkeld, of Holm Hill who was the
son of Louis Salkeld. Alexander Carruthers was the son of David Alexander
Carruthers and Elizebath Thompson(Married 1786). The had the following
children: James, died 1815 at Waterloo,Alexander (already mention),Cecile,
died 1848, and one unnamed Dtr.. The carruthers family was of the Wormanbie
branch of the family. The book mentions NOTHING of your Mary Salkeld
Carruthers.

People,
The Cumbria Genealogy site lists the following people.
a.. D. CARRUTHERS - Tailor/Draper English Damside Carlisle 1847
a.. Mary CARRUTHERS - vict Crown Stanwix Carlisle 1829
a.. William CARRUTHERS - Horse Dealer Stanwix Carlisle 1829
a.. John CARRUTHERS - Horse Dealer and Inn Keeper Stanwix Carlisle
1811
There is a common thread to the CARRUTHERS connections that I am
looking
for with all of them and I am wondering if anyone can fill the gaps.
I am looking for Robert CARRUTHERS and Mary CARRUTHERS (nee SALKELD), my
g.g.g.grandparent, who in 1822 lived at English Damside Carlisle. Robert
was a Horse Dealer.
The only child that I know of was Robert Salkeld CARRUTHERS b1822 and
Christened at
StCuthbert Carlisle. Robert S emigrated to Australia in 1850.
His first son was named Robert James and his second was named John Salkeld.
Scenario:
John CARRUTHERS is Robert CARRUTHERS' father who trained his son as a
horse
dealer. He put Mary, Robert's wife into his Inn the Crown. William
is a brother to John. and D CARRUTHERS is a sibling of Robert S who remained
at English Damside to take up as a Tailor/Draper.
It's fanciful but possible.
Can anyone throw light on any of the people in the list. Also, what doe
'vict' refer to?
I'll look forward to a flood of answers.
