I have been reading to Junior what Betty and Glenna have wrote and it has him telling stories that he remembers about the area so it has been a enjoyable afternoon for us to remember the past.

Hi Mary Ann! Good to hear from you. Are you still researching the Caruthers? We need a new breakthrough that would tell us who (old) Edmond's parents were. Also, would like to find his other two sons, Edmond (called Ed), and Thomas (Called Tom). I have found several Thomas Caruthers, but not any of them are the right one.
