Subject: Re: newcommer with surnames Carothers/Caruthers/Carrothers/Corruthers/Curothers From: J Wostal Date: April 19, 1998 All of my Carothers/Caruthers/Carrothers/Corruthers/Curothers data is "second hand". I am probably of no help to you but: Below are messages I recieved from cousins concerning my line: A cousin wrote the following to me: Your David Carruthers was the son of William Carruthers, b. ca. 1740 in North Carolina, by his wife Elizabeth Bickam or Bacon. I don't have much in the way of other information on him, other than the fact that William had another wife (don't know which was first) named Margaret McCarthy, by whom he had one daughter Marguerite who m. Jean Boudreaux. This is our line. I've been looking for other early Carruthers information, and despite some unsubstantiated stuff from Scotland and Virginia, I've never been able to connect anything to our William. Hope this is what you're looking for! Cheers, Gordon William CARUTHERS (born about 1740 in NC? - Died 14 Apr 1808) married Marguerite MCCARTY (Please not that my cousin wrote McCarthy).
