I don't know that it did change to Carrico. According to the info I have Joanna's
brother also marr a Carrico. To me that would seem to indicate that they are a different
family.
Some researchers believed that because of the similarity it was likely that these were the
same family. Given heavy accents and spelling abilities of those who recorded spoken
names, many were misunderstood and changed.
I don't believe that enough Carrick/Kerrick and other variations of spelling have been
DNA tested to prove such a connection.
