Carroll Researchers, I was just made aware that one person on the list did not know about a book that is available on the Carrolls of Virginia. I posted the information when I had first learned about the book about a year (I think) ago. Here is the information for any others who may not be aware of it. It is available at: http://www.heritagebooks.com "Virginia Carrolls and Their Neighbors: 1618-1800s" - Elizabeth Carroll Foster. Chapters include a brief history of Ireland, a sketch of the colony of Virginia into statehood (1585-1800), some land patents and grants. Also the author provides a list of Virginia Carrolls having recorded wills or inventories, some marriages without dates and locations, Revolutionary War Pension applicants, soldiers in the Civil War, the war with Spain and the Philippine insurrection, and those found on Virginia records, 1618-1850s and beyond. This work is meant to assist research on Virginia Carrolls; however, the text and index contain hundreds of associated names, making it a valuable resource for locating ancestral names in colonial Virginia. Maps add a delightful touch to this book. 1999, 248 pp., maps, bibl., fullname index, paper, $24.50 #ZF577 Ms. Foster's book is really a compilation of her notes - not a genealogy. There are so many Carrolls it almost makes you dizzy. I wish she would hurry and publish a book on NC Carrolls! She mentioned she was aiming in that direction, but she is also working on other things. FYI, I am in no way connected to this book or it's publisher. Lura Lura C. Southard southard@interpath.com
