Welcome Eric, and H 2 again, and all recent Carruthers subscribers,
You'll find significant discussions of earlier Carruthers Gen by Browsing
(or searching) recent messages in the List Archives at:
http://lists.rootsweb.com/index/surname/c/carruthers.html
where of course messages matching more recent family links are also
important.
Also, feel free, and you are encouraged, to post your own Tree/branch
looking for connections. While we discourage posting names & dates of living
persons to the List, you can deal directly w/other posters.
FYI, my GGGG Gm was Rocksolannah Carruthers, d/o John (will of 1751
posted, avail in the Archives) md John Witherington. Rocksolannah (some say
'Laney' was the diminutive of her name) eventually lived on Lot #98 in New
Bern NC, catty cornered to the Tryon Palace.
Good luck in your Gen researching.
Barry Wetherington
