    The family of Mrs. Carrothers is of ancient origin and many of its members have made creditable records both in civic and military life. Rev. Adam Blackman, the founder of the family in America, was born in England in 1598 and came to this country as far back as 1639. He settled in Stratford, Connecticut, where he organized the first Congregational church, of which he was pastor for twenty-five years, and died there in 1665. John Blackman, one of his descendants, became the fa ther of Ebenezer Blackman, the great-great-grandfather of Mrs. Carrothers. Her great-grandfather was Enoch Blackman, who served at different times in the Revolutionary army, his last enlistment being August 1, 1780, and his dis charge December 9, in the same year. Rev. Philo Blackman, father of Mrs. Carrothers, served as a private in the Fifteenth Regiment, Ohio Volunteer Infantry, and died in 1877. The mother of Mrs. Carrothers was born at Wilkesbarre, Pennsylvania, and died at Columbus Grove, Ohio, when eighty- one years of age.
