________________
The MA Bangs are mentioned here:
Francis Hodges' oldest son, and the only one for whom
I have birth and death dates, was Joshua Hodges. He was
born in 1736, which means that John Carruthers was already a
grandfather by that year. So I would suspect that John was
born in the 1600's--perhaps as early as 1680's. I have been
in touch with two or three Carruthers researchers but have
no scoop on John's origins as of yet. There were families
by that name in both Pennsylvania and Virginia (eastern
shore) in early 1700's. The Bangs family, which was
related, came from Barnstable, Massachusetts. Don't know
how they came to live in the New Bern area buy the mid
1700's. I have found both John Carruthers and Francis
Hodges mentioned in the Craven records as early as the
1730's. Wish I knew where they came from.

_____________________
This is from the deep south, and is unlikely to be related
to the other Bangs, but they may have ctd their migration
from MA to NC by continuing even further south...
These are the folks buried out on the Witherington property
below Artesian (Moody Cemetery) on the Bangs Slough Hunting
Lease. We were very happy to get that one, as the
certificate is 116 years old. That was quite a find for us.

Thank you for your attention, and if you see something
of interest, please post it to the List.
