I unfortunately did not find any relatives in the Catholic Churches. I assumed of course we were Catholic at that time. I did find once large Carroll family with a consistent name of Alice Carroll and perhaps Ann. Today I am assuming my Carroll family were Protestant at that time and I need to search through the Presbytarian Church records of the mid-1800's. Some day. Regarding Y-DNA, the research follows your paternal line. If your surname is Carroll, I hope you get involved. See the following: Kevin Carroll is Administrator for the Carroll Y-DNA Project at FamilyTreeDNA, and his e-mail address is available on the Carroll pages at FamilyTreeDNA. The 37 marker test is the minimum you should get involved in to be useful. The three sites for the project are: http://www.familytreedna.com/public/carroll/ http://www.familytreedna.com/surname_join.asp?code=F25174&special=True http://www.childtalk.com/History/carrollfamilydna.html Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
