Carruthers')
I have seen another ref to a Rocksolannah Carruthers in PA (T Dick?), and
W'tons also in PA.
Just abt 5 yrs later, a John Carruthers traveled from New England w/
Jonathan Bangs to New Bern NC (home of the then living Rocksolannah
Carruthers) & bought adjoining property, all presumably for a seafaring
enterprise.
Hello W'tons, Carruthers, Bangs (and Dares), particularly those who
may
descend from:
- Edwd Bangs (arrived on the "Anne" to MA 1623) and his son Jonathan md
Abiah Carruthers,
- John Carruthers (bro of Abiah) md Content Bangs (sis of Jonathan)
- Rocksolannah Carruthers md John Witherington s/o Robt Widdrington d 1722
md Elizabeth Dare
. We have all been aware that there was a possible, even suspected,
connection, because of the prominence played by the Bangs in the lives of
Carruthers/W'tons, and how significant does that "Abiah Bangs" witness to
the John Carruthers 1751 will look now.

Also, the 1722 will of Robt Widdrington contains refs of interest:
