Hey Eric!
That has been one of the theories suggested to explain why we can't find any
record of Jesse Carrel (Carroll) prior to about 1750 in Sampson County,
North Carolina.
If your list sheds any light on this, I would appreciate it.

Subject: [CARROLL-DNA] Runaway Carroll Servants 1700's
Did your Carroll ancestors come to this country in the 1700's as
indentured
servants? I have just returned from the Seattle library with
copies of the pages of Carrolls who were runaway servants from PA, DE, MD
and NJ for whom a reward was advertised for their return to their masters.
There are listed about two dozen Carrolls. I'll be glad to do lookups ...
The book is "Runaway Servants, Convicts and Apprentices Advertised in the
Pennsylvania Gazette, 1728-1796, by Farley Grubb.
