I just checked into this site and saw your recent query.Yes, Hetty Milligan/Melligan married James Rutherford.Here's a wedding note, from the Easton(Pa) paper:
Easton Centinel, 1825
Friday April 8, married on the 2nd inst. by George Ihrie, Esq., Mr. James Rutherford of Bethlehem Twp., Hunterdon County, to Miss Hetty Malegan, daughter of James Malegan, same place.
[That is one of the name variants you find in early documents]
Her parents were James (1771-1838) and Catherine ? (1780-1838) Milligan/Melligan.
(I haven't seen postings by Arlyne Stump for about 10 years and am not sure she still goes online.)
