Individual Note: THE KORESHAN UNITY MEMBERSHIP LIST by Claude J. Rahn: Dr. Oliver J Ruth
FOLKS WE KNEW WHILE IN THE K.U. by Marie McCready: Oliver Ruth; "Oliver was a physician. They came from Muscatine, Iowa, and brought their horse Nellie. In Washington Heights he had charge of the farm, so Lovelle and I planted and picked garden vegetables under his teasing instructions. Blanche was our schoolteacher in Chicago and part of the time in Estero; returned to Muscatine and Blanche died. Some time later Oliver married Nina's mother, Alice Burrows, and their son Dean lives in Washington state."
MEMORIES, MEMORIES--DAYS OF LONG AGO chronicled by Marie McCready with participation by Lovelle McCready: Reference to Doctor Ruth on page 33 and 37. Reference to Doctor and Blanche Ruth living in "Sister Emma's Cottage" until they left and returned to their home in Iowa--page 59. Although they occupied the same house while in the Unity, Blanche and Dr. Oliver Ruth lived as celibates--Page 86. Dr. Oliver and Blanche Ruth became dissatisfied with the
Koreshan Unity and they returned to their old home in Muscatine, Iowa. Blanche
died soon afterward and Oliver, some time later, married Alice Burrows, Nina's
mother, and they had a son Dean.--Page 86 and 87.
