Hi Robert, Are there any Carrolls way back in your family from Maryland? My GGGgrandfather was Robert C. Ross b. 1820. Came from Lancaster, PA to West Philadelphia. This is the area where the rest of the Rosses stayed including me. However, my great aunt Nance claimed that Robert C. Ross was a descendant of a Carroll family in Maryland. Have never been able to trace this back. Am always looking for clues! Susan Ross Clark
