One thought on “Edward Outlaw & Mary”

  1. I bought a property in a Sebring, Florida. The woman who owned it was Mary Ruddick. Her grandmother was Winnie Outlaw. I’d like to know more information. I am researching for her family and the hotel’s history. She married Carl Schroeder who led the small hotel to her.
