Max, I am having trouble locating the Downing/Carroll Kinfolk Website..can you send the link? My Carroll's were found in Sullivan County, TN on the 1850 Census. They stated they were from NC and VA...the elders mostly from NC and the oldest children born in VA..The oldest Carroll found in Sullivan County was born about 1850-1860 named William Carroll..other Elders are Starlin, Andrew, David, John, Annis, George, Jordan, and a couple more Williams..My line is George b. 1804 and Sarah unk to son Andrew Carroll b. 1850 to James Carroll b. 1892. Andrews siblings were, Thomas, Barbara, Madison, Jacob, William, George,Susan, and Elbert..not correct order. Thanks! Jan
