your file was very interesting, the Carruthers surname matched almost exactly that in mine
under
the surname Carothers, the two names are used together and are derived from Carruthers.
The real
interesting thing was:

born 1668 in Rammerscales,Scotland, and died
November 1750 in Ireland. He married (1) SARAH SPROUL June 11, 1689 in

Immigration: 1712, To Ireland
>>>Here is mentioned that his father was Robert III and
mother Margaret Dalziell. I had him
under a completely different set of parents and
I believe several other researchers have it that
was also. This looks very promising information.
Your file followed my database on the Carothers line, I am now putting them in the
database as
Carruthers/Carothers and have been for some time. Your file also added a lot of additional
names
as well, especially on the Neff surname. I did note another difference as well between
yours and
mine:
Yours has linage:
ROBERT8 CARRUTHERS (ROBERT7, JOANNIS6, JOHN5, JOHN4, JOHN3, SIMON2, WILLIAM1)
Mine has:
1. ROBERT(US) (CAROTHERS)14 CARRUTHERS (ROBERT13, JOHN12, JOHN11, SIMON10, JOHN9, JOHN8,
JOHN7, JOHN6, ROGER5, JOHN4, JOHN3
DECARRUTHERS, UNK2, WILLIAM1)1,2,3,4,5
They are somewhat similar, but different?? Do you have something on this line on yours
you can share??
