Hi All Carruthers & interested, RE: Carruthers early NC land records.
The essence of this Carruthers early NC land records list may have been
posted earlier (including by Deborah Hanson of Texas) but is nonetheless
interesting. In fact, I see it is a portion of the records as posted by
Elizabeth Moore back in 1960 (which has been earlier addressed online,
including the Index to the Hawk book), and as discussed by, among others,
Deborah Carothers Hanson (her letter of 4 Dec 2003) & Ann D Ohmsen in her
extensive & complete letters of a few weeks ago & recent 11 Feb 2004, the
latter of which has not yet been posted to any List. Ann has done some
(actually, a lot of) quite excellent research & writing, in particular her
determination there were 2 Rocksolannahs ('Rocksolana' as listed below for
the 1738 transaction Carruthers to Martin) in these records:
"*1738: March 20th , William Carruthers gives to his sister, Rocksolana
Martin, late widow, a tract of 200 acres on north side of Lower Broad Creek,
near the mouth of Neuse River where she now lives, near Green's Greek,
Patented by said William Carruthers 30th June 1738, ( Sarah Martin and Jacob
Hoover, Witnesses)"
Ann is herself a Martin (Desc of John Martin d1737/8 Beaufort Co NC
naming in his will, among others, his wife Rocksolanah and his wife's
brother John Carruthers & Wit Wm Carruthers) &, working w/Bill Moore, has
sent me 2 excellent treatises, including her 4 Aug 2003 & 22 Oct 2003 proof
of the 2 Rocksolannahs for Bill Moore, which Bill has generously shared with
us) but Ann is not yet online. I hope to eventually, with her permission,
post all her works to the Lists. Meanwhile, this Carruthers Land list from
Marc Parrish to Bill King, while a bit cumulative, is interesting.
Barry
PS: One easily read (and so many are not easy) ref to Rocksolana is from the
Prayer Book/ Bible, portions of which are posted online (and in a very
recent List email) for W'tons in the WringtonAncestors website in the Photos
section on p11, see below:
