My sister just informed me that the name Martha Searle is in the old Bible she has, that had belonged to our grandmother, Anna Alice Rush Carstedt. She was told this is Grandma's grandma. This sure threw a kink in my files. If this is true, Martha Searle Hazen has to be connected to my Rush line somehow. Anyone have any information on the Searle family? I had no idea where this name would take me while I was searching. Imagine my surprise when it lead me right back to Woodford County.
