I am stumped on my ancestor Robert Davis Carroll (who was white) who in 1850 was living in York with Jane Carroll . There were several children, 2 of whom are listed as mulattoes. Robert was killed during the Civil War. Was Jane his mother? Was she married or an unwed mother? Who were the mulatto children? One was named Martha G. , she married mulatto William Bryant. The other was Amanda Jane or Jane Amanda who married mulatto Henry Moss. They were all in Spartanburg co in 1860 then buncombe co n.c. By 1870. Then I lose them all. In 1870 Jane is living with one of the mulatto families. Wouldn't free mulattoes have to be legally registered to avoid being enslaved? For them to be free in 1850 their mother (Jane?) was probably white. Where would I look for registration records?

I can't help with anything specific. Other places to try are:
Ancestry.com has an "Orphanages in New York" message board at:
http://boards.ancestry.com/topics.orphans.us.ny/mb.ashx
There's a list of orphanages at:
http://www.olivetreegenealogy.com/orphans/orphan-asylums.shtml
The only "St. Thomas" on the list is in upstate NY, not the NYC metro area.
A trick for finding orphanages in censuses at Ancestry.com is to use "inmate" as a keyword for the search. People in jails and hospitals were listed as inmates, but so were children in orphanages.
Hope this helps.

You don't mention any dates.
My GGF James Carroll may have been in an orphanage in New York City between 1880 and 1900. I have not located any records for him. There are pages for an orphanage in the 1880 census. I can point you to them if that's the period you're interested in, but it sounds like you're talking about later than that.

I will email this to you as you asked, but I am also posting here in case others might be interested.
The William Hardy Carroll I know lived in NC 1853-1928. He did not have a son named Howard, so this was a different William Hardy.
There were several with the name Hardy Carrell/oll who lived in Eastern NC in the late 1700's and early 1800's. My Major Hardy C. had moved from Sampson County to Stokes County, NC by 1815. He named a son Hardy Royal C., and the name Hardy continued in several grandsons and great-grandsons.
I hope you find your William Hardy Carroll. Maybe you can learn if he had ancestors in Sampson or Duplin County, NC. This male lineage has been well documented in DNA in the CARROLL DNA Project with FamilyTreeDNA. Although no exact family tree has been found so far, the DNA seems to indicate our line is similar to others who are Scots-Irish, probably from Northeastern Ireland.
If you have a man with the Carroll surname in a line where there have been no adoptions, name changes, or illegitimate births, then DNA testing may be a quick way for you to find others who share the same heritage.

Looking for information on:
Thomas Carrol (c1775-)
(1) On Jan. 10, 1807, Thos. Carroll made a land petition as a yeoman of Toronto Twp. He had been in the province for 3 years and had purchased land near the Clergy Reserve on Lot 8, Con. 2 NDS, Toronto Twp. and wished to lease that property. The lease was recommended (U200). He was absent Sept. 25 to Oct. 24, 1813 (D255). On May 1, 1815, Thos. Carroll made a land petition as a yeoman of Toronto Twp. He had been born in Ireland, was 40 years old, and resided in the province for 9 years (U201).
2) On May 17, 1819, Thos. Carroll made a land petition as a yeoman of York. He was born in New Brunswick, was over 22 years old, had resided in the province for 10 years, and had served 2 years in the Royal Artillery Drivers during the late war. In April, 1815, he was discharged from the corps at Queenston. The petition was granted (U202).
There appear to have been two Thos. Carrolls living in the same area in Ontario, Canada at the same time. I am looking for the one who served in the 2nd Regiment of York Militia, recruited from Toronto Twp., during the War of 1812.

Noah Carroll (possibly spelled Carrel or Carrell or Carell) of Kansas is my grandfather (my father's dad), but I unfortunately don't know anything about him other than he died around 1936 and lived in Kansas. He was married to Rose Hannah Wilkerson, born ~1892 and died ~1942. Their son was my father Noah James (Jim) Carroll, born 1934 in Uniontown, Kansas, died 1991. Does anyone have any information about Noah my grandfather, such as his birth year and place, death year and place, his ancestors and their origin, etc.? I would greatly appreciate any info.

My grandfather, William Joseph, had an older brother Richard. They also had a sister Catherine. Their parents were Valentine and Bridget (O'Reilly) Carroll from P.E.I..
Valentine was a mariner and supposedly died in some sort of accident at sea. Bridget also died supposedly of a broken heart and the children were separated.
William and Richard were sent to an orphanage and Catherine was sent to work in a boarding house in Gloucester, MA at age 9 to work. William escaped from the orphanage at age 10 and traveled to Boston to be near his mothers family. He lived in a barn and became a milk man. He located his sister and later on located his brother Richard in Cos Cob, CT. We have met Catherine's family who still reside in Gloucester. We have been unable to locate Richard's family. Richard was a writer in NYC.
Best of luck to you in your research,
Mary Carroll Cantin

I am looking for information regarding Malachi Carroll born around 1820 or 1830 in Ireland, possibly in the Dublin area but I am unsure of his actual birth town. He was married to Mary Keating and had at least 2 children. His son James Carroll was born about 1859 in Ireland and immigrated to Hartford, CT sometime around 1875 and married Hannah Hogan in Hartford. His daughter Catherine Carroll was born about 1853 in ireland and also immigrated to Hartford, CT around 1869 and married John Hogan in Hartford.
I have no information regarding birthplace in Ireland or any other children in the family. Any information is greatly appreciated!
