I am sure this is my husbands family. Benj. Carroll seems to be the father of the Benj
married to Eliza Shipes. I am still trying to document this. On the 1850 census from
Barnwell SC Darling Shipes is listed as 28 yrs with the following: James 7, Eliz 5,
Savannah 3, Mahala 2, Nancy 1. No wife is listed. Did she die young after Nancy was born?
Darling was a planter. Benjamin had a son named Darling Jackson Carroll. He married one of
the Marsh sisters and his brother married the other one. The Shhipes are also related to
the Hairs and I imagine that is where the Cherokee connection is. I have the transcription
of the Barnwell 1850 US Census so it is easy to find families.I do not find Ann Carroll in
this census.There is an An Shipes living with Amy Hair, 40 yrs old along with other Hair
children. No adult male listed. I will look up my records for more info as I do not have
it on this new computer yet. But I dohave it printed out.
