One John Vann left will dated 16 Dec 1841 in Sampson County, NC and named grandaughters, Charlotte Carroll, Sally Ann Carroll & Catherine Carroll children of daughter Mary Carroll, deceased. Charlotte must have been married and/or deceased when Raiford Carroll made his will on 9 Sep 1848. The will of John Vann establishes that there were at three daughters born to Mary Vann Carroll. In all it appears that Raiford Carroll had daughers, Charlotte, Sarah (Sally Ann?), Catherine (Mary C.?), Elizabeth and Ella. Some of the mystery begins to unravel. Thanks again.
