Searching for antecedents for Caroline Elizabeth McCotter (Mecotter), b, abt, 1826, prob. Dorchester County, MD, (m. Joseph H. Barger), d. 9 May 1891, Baltimore, buried Mt Olivet, Balto.
Old family notes list her father as James Mecotter(sic) and her mother as Mary Smith (who is described as having come, with her parents, from England). There is mention of Federalsburg.
Does any of this ring a bell with anyone? Many thanks.
