    1. Re: Roth's of Lafayette, Indiana
    2. I'm also looking for some Indiana Roths, specifically my g-grandfather Charles Roth and (possibly) a son or brother named Craig Roth. Charles wife may have been named Sarah (possibly Mueller/Miller). My grandfather Harry Lamont Roth was born 15 Oct 1862, so Charles would be been born before 1842 at least. Harry's death certificate shows his place of birth as "Pennsylvania" (no town). If true, Charles would have had to move to Indiana after 1862. Family lore has it that this family was Pennsylvania Dutch. Also that Charles owned a hotel in Indiana, but I'm not certain of the town. Obviously, none of this info has been verified, except (perhaps) Harry's birthdate. Even there, it's information that was given by his 19-year-old daughter at the time of his death in 1913. I have not been able to locate Harry's place of birth and, thus, have no birth certificate for him. Pennsylvania records before a certain date are not centralized. They have to be requested from each county seat. Harry's birthdate falls into this category. And I haven't yet done the hard work of writing to every county in Pennsylvania to inquire about his birth. If anyone knows of this family, I would appreciate their contacting me. Thanks for your help, Lois >----- At 02:44 PM 23-07-01 -0600, awier1966@yahoo.com wrote: >Hi Judith, I am >interested in the Susan Cavanaugh mentioned in your message.My great >grandfathers mother was a Susan Cavanaugh.He was born in >Rensselear,Indiana in 1868.Since you have no dates listed for Susan I am >curious.Thank You.
