Hey Ben, I saw your post. That's funny, you and your mom have the same names as my cousins. You may be a distant cousin of theirs.I don't know much about the Carruth side of the family. All I know is my grandmother's sister, Dorothy McCarn married Bud Hinkle(they were from Mountain View,Stone County,Arkansas). They moved to Marrianna,Lee County,Arkansas and had two children(Mary-Jo and Charles both born in the late 1920's early 1930's). Mary-Jo married Paul Carruth and had Ben and Bev, I think Ben was born in the 1950's and Bev was born in the early 60's. I don't know where Bev ended up, but Ben should still be a lawyer in Little Rock,Arkansas. I don't know where their father(Paul Carruth) was from,his mother lived next door to them in the late 1970's, I don't know what her name was. Maybe you will find out ya'll are cousins! Good luck.
