Greetings List: I am a new subscriber to the list. I belong to many other rootsweb lists, and why I have never subscribed to this list I don't know considering my maiden name is Carroll. At any rate, I thought I would play catch up and throw out my Carroll Roll Call Here goes: In Search of parents of Henry Clay Carroll. His death cert lists his father as Jas Carroll, and I take that to mean James. I have been unable to uncover anything on this Jas Carroll. Family lore tells that he was a very educated man and was employed at a university, but subsequent searches have turned up nothing. This is what I have on Henry Clay Carroll. 1833 b. Bowling Green, Warren Co, KY 1859, Married Julia Earles in White Co, IL she died just a few months later, there were no children to this marriage 1861-62 Came to Dallas Co MO 1862 married Mary Ann Cheek, Dallas Co MO Sep to Dec 1862 Served in the 6th MO Regiment (Union) during the Civil War 1913. Died Dallas Co, MO Buried, Macedonia Baptist Church, Dallas Co MO. I am descended from his son John Riley, his son Charles B. and his son Charles D. Any help on searching for Carroll's in Warren Co, KY is most graciously appreciated. Blessings Sherry Carroll Qualls

This came on one of my subscriptions (no, I am only 3 years behind) It was too good to pass up on passing on. SOOOO ya'll get a laugh now! I got this off of my Illinois state list, thought I would pass it on! Heather Wyoming Dear Listers and friends, You know you're taking genealogy too seriously if... You are the only person to show up at the cemetery research party with a shovel. To put the "final touches" on your genealogical research, you've asked all of your closest relatives to provide DNA samples. You decided to take a two-week break from genealogy, and the U.S. Postal Office immediately laid off 1,500 employees. Out of respect for your best friend's unquestioned reputation for honesty and integrity, you are willing to turn off that noisy surveillance camera while she reviews your 57 genealogical research notebooks in your home. The armed security guard, however, will remain. You plod merrily along "refining" your recently published family history, blissfully unaware that the number of errata pages now far exceeds the number of pages in your original publication. During an ice storm and power outage, you ignore the pleas of your shivering spouse and place your last quilt around that 1886 photograph of dear Uncle George. The most recent document in your "Missing Ancestors" file is a 36- page contract between you and Johnson Billboard Advertising Company. Ed McMahon, several t.v. cameras and an envelope from Publishers Clearing House arrive at your front door on Super Bowl Sunday, and the first thing you say is, "Are you related to the McMahons of Ohio?" "A Loving Family" and "Financial Security" have moved up to second and third, respectively, on your list of life's goals, but still lag far behind "Owning My Own Microfilm Reader." A magical genie appears and agrees to grant your any one wish, and you ask that the 1890 census be restored. You want the day when all records everywhere will available for online research to be yesterday instead of someday... Your fourth wife pauses long enough at your desk to hand you the final divorce papers and without looking up you calmly type DIV in the marriage status box of your genealogy program. You subscribe to so many genealogy mailing lists that you are still responding to messages posted 4 years ago. You consider your dead ancestors and their relatives friends. You have more dead friends than live ones. You were instrumental in having "non-genealogical use of the genealogy room copy machine" classified as a federal hate crime. Your house leans slightly toward the side where your genealogical records are stored. You spend two months salary to buy the latest scanner that allows reproduction of photo negatives and microfilm. You take it with your laptop computer to the library to duplicate a microfilm instead of using the machine there to make photocopies of the pages you want because that one is too slow and costly. You scowl at anyone who sits in the chair in front of the microfilm reader by the extra electrical outlet. You address everyone you meet now as "cousin." You are the highest bidder at a govt. auction for 16 fireproof, five drawer, legal size filing cabinets to store your paper documents only to remember that you have converted all of them to digital format and were going to recycle them. At least you can still recycle the cardboard boxes they're stored in now. You average 10 or more "Do you wish to stay connected?" messages from your internet service provider per online research session. Your monthly research expenditures exceed all other items in your household budget. You flood the mailbox of the poor unfortunate person that posts a message on "your" list that doesn't quite fit the rules.

IM looking for information on my gggg grandfather Owen Carroll of Bladen County, North Carolina he was born in1755-1765 and was married to a women named Mary. He was not born in Bladen County but his son Owen Carroll was in 1797. I did find Him or his son in the war of 1812 but nothing else. IM really stuck, any information you give will be greatly appreciated.

My gggg grandfather is said to have been killed in the War of 1812. His son Anthony Wayne Carroll (Carrel) was born in western PA in 1806, raised in central OH, and married Balinda Root in Licking Co., OH in 1826, and raised a large family there near Granville. I am searching for any clues as to the identity of Anthony Wayne Carroll's parents and siblings. I suspect his father may have been the Philip Carroll listed as a military death in the War of 1812, with Captain Robert Gilmore's Company from OH, county unknown (but probably Jefferson). Only two Carrolls of any spelling are listed as known casualties of that war who were Philip Carroll and St. Clair Carroll. My Anthony Wayne Carroll named his first son Philip, which was never a given name in his wife's family, and so I am led to think he may have named his first son after his father. On the other hand family legend has it that Anthony Wayne, whose father was killed when he was a boy, may have been adopted or raised by a family in central OH named Carroll (Carrel) and he may have taken their surname as his own. It is also said that Anthony Wayne (Carroll) had many siblings, all of whom remain unknown. I am searching for any information about Philip Carroll or Anthony Wayne Carroll of OH or western PA during the years 1806-1826.

If I follow the author correctly, Thomas, a brother to the first Hercules also had a son, Hercules who married Catherine West.
