Hi Carrolls, My grandmother was Nancyann Narcisus Carrel, daughter of Andrew Jackson Carrel and Mary Francis Parker. She was born in Clinton County, Missouri on September 21, 1874. Her grandfather was Robert Carroll/Carrel who was the son of John Carroll/Carrel and Elizabeth Stubblefield. John Carroll./Carrel is as far as I have been able to go back. He was born in North Carolina in 1790. He migrated to Hawkins County, Tennessee before 1811 because he married in July of that year Elizabeth Stubblefield, daughter of Robert Loxley Stubblefield and Sarah Easley. John and Elizabeth and their sons Nathaniel, Robert and William and his brother James and wife Polly Carroll left Tennessee abt 1820 for Missouri where they settled in the part of Ray County which later became Clay County. John and Elizabeth moved to Dekalb County after 1850 because they were still living in Clay County when the 1850 Federal Census was taken. John and Elizabeth were in the 1860 Census of Dekalb County, Missouri. Elizabeth died after the census was taken. John later remarried. John and Elizabeth had six sons and three daughters. Their sons were Nathaniel, Robert, William, Jackson, Francis Marion, and Major Carroll/Carrel. Their daughters were Fanny, Nancy and Martha. I have been working with some of the descendants of John Carroll/Carrel and James Carroll/Carrel but so far we have hit a brick wall on trying to find their parents. The Carroll name when John and James came to Clay County was spelled Carroll but Robert, Nathaniel and the other sons spelled it Carrel in later documents and that is the spelling their descendants are using now. My grandmother said that our Carrols were Scotch-Irish. Other older Carroll relatives have told us that the Carrolls were originally MacCarrolls who came to America in 1750 from Ireland. Some of these older relatives believed that the father of James and John was a William Carroll. Both John and James named a son William. When I was sent copies of some early research on the Carrolls from a descendant of James Carroll, there was a pedigree chart with a William Carroll born 1770 as father of John and James. According to these older relatives who are all deceased, there was a letter that John and James received from Alfred Carroll from Tennessee in which he said that he was taking care of his aging parents. No one has been able to find this letter. I believe that Alfred was a cousin of John and James. Following the idea that William might have been the father of John and James and brother of Luke Carroll Jr, I have found William and Luke Jr on the tax lists of Washington County, TN and in Allison's Regiment in East Tenn.Militia in 1814. I am anxious to contact any of Alfred Carroll's descendants to learn if they have any information on thej siblings of Luke Carroll Jr. Susan, I may have the answer to your question about where in VA the Carroll family came from. I have a copy of the survey for 400 acres for Luke Carroll in Albemarle County, VA in 1749. Luke is not as common a name as John, James and William. The only other Luke Carroll I could find in VA land records was Luke Carroll from Grayson County, VA , the one who served in the Revolutionary War. There was a Luke Carroll Sr. and a Luke Carroll Jr. in Granville County, North Carolina. When I was there last fall, I found Luke Sr. on tax lists in the 1760s. In 1765 Luke Carroll and his wife Ann sold land in Granville. I have a copy of the land sale and the tax lists. I think this Luke could have been Luke Jr and the father of your Luke. From 1765 until 1778 there was no record in North Carolina of a Luke Carroll. In 1778 a Luke Carroll was on the tax list in Rowan County, North Carolina. Iredell was formed from Rowan County so Luke may not have moved just the county lines moved. Since your Luke Carroll was born in Virginia, the Luke and Ann who sold land in Granville may have moved back to VA settling in Grayson County and then moving back to North Carolina settling in Rowan County. These are just suppositions which have yet to be proven. I'm going to VA in September and I will check out Grayson County and see what I can find out. ************************************** Get a sneak peek of the all-new AOL at http://discover.aol.com/memed/aolcom30tour

Is this the same Alfred that is in McMinn Co? We may possibly have 2 Alfreds Joyce Gaston Reece ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, July 27, 2007 3:45 PM Subject: [CARROLL] (no subject) > Hi Carrolls, > My grandmother was Nancyann Narcisus Carrel, daughter of Andrew Jackson > Carrel and Mary Francis Parker.

I have nothing on Luke Carroll's siblings, but I do have some information on his descendants, of which I am one. I am descended through Luke Jr.'s daughter Eliza who married William Lockmiller. Thanks for all this information. It's going to take me some time to digest it all and see where it all fits for me. Elaine O'.
