Takoma Park

edit

A small city in Maryland, Takoma Park, takes great pride in knowing that the young Miss Hawn grew up there. The following quote is from a local paper. "Hawn, who will celebrate her 60th birthday Monday, was born Goldie Jean Studlendgehawn and grew up at 9 Cleveland Ave., a place she called "the Holy Grail of my Mind" in her recent book, "Goldie: A Lotus Grows in the Mud" (the book title isn't a crack on Takoma Park, but instead refers to the sacred Buddhist image of a lotus, a flower revered in part because it invariably grows from the mud at the bottom of a pond)." -- Gazette Community News, Wednesday, November 16, 2005.

I can not find any connection between Goldie and Edward Rutledge. Does anyone have the correct pedigree that shows their family? I can only find as far as an individual named "Paschal Rutledge". Thanks to anyone that can help.
