Hello those interested in Carothers/Carruthers, & Hello family of Wm Hewlett
Carothers (Hewlitt, Carruthers, etc),
We are interested in some information we have reason to believe is found in
the Carothers Family Bible in (or once in) the possession of William Hewlett
Carothers. As you may see from the message below, we would be interested in
finding and reading, or asking someone to check for information concerning the
issue raised in this email, namely,
"John Carothers married Content Carothers (his cousin) 1733, she b 1716, d aft
1762"
"this information was found in the Carothers Family Bible in the possession of
William Hewlett Carothers"
Please feel free to read the message below. If you can suggest an approach to
viewing or having this bible read, or contacting someone who might be able to
assist, please reply, or perhaps even better, forward this to anyone, or ones,
who might be able to assist (I note 2 'Living Carothers' in Karen Ryals'
RootsWeb WorldConnect site - similar in Wm Monroe's wmonroe(a)gonetrix.com). We
would be very appreciative. Please reply and or contact me at:

Subject: Re: When were John and Content married? connecting Bangs & Carruthers
" I've just gone through my Carruthers folder and found that in 1991 at the
LDS library I found a marriage entry record (#85 227 0238) which stated that
John Carothers married Content Carothers. That this information was found in
the Carothers Family Bible in the possession of William Hewlett Carothers.
I wrote the lady who submitted this -- Mrs. Lois Rusmussen of Smithfield,
Utah.
I received an answer from her daughter, saying her mother was 86 years old,
had had a stroke and was in a nursing home. The daughter had not helped her
Mother with her research for 20 years. She did look through some files and sent
me a Family Group Record which stated that John Carothers, b 1708 in
Dumsfrieshsire, Scotland - came to Cumberland Co., Pa 1733. John died in 1752
in Craven Co., SC His wife was Content Carothers (his cousin) , b 1716 and died
after 1762. They were married in 1733. She did not know how to get in
touch with Mr. Caruthers who had the family bible. She also commented that some
of her mother's material came from "Carruthers Family" by John Franklin
Carothers (1876). I have also hunted this book but haven't found it.
Just thought I'd send this along - for whatever it is worth!!! "
