This is not my family, and I have no proven information about it. I've picked up
little bits here and there. Also, there are places online that can offer you help.
It seems that Dr. Charles Carroll, who was probably a second cousin of Charles Carroll of
Carrollton, had only one granddaughter, Mary Clare Carroll who could carry on the family
lineage. She married Nicholas Maccubbin, and they had several children. Someone in the
family offered to give great inheritance to those willing to change to the CARROLL
surname.
Mary Clare CARROLL's ancestral lineage = Dr. Charles < Charles < Daniel
< Daniel
Robert Morrison KENNARD, Jr. has published online one outline of this family. There seems
to be a complex mixing of the names there.

Perhaps this will get you headed in the right direction. It would be interesting to know
if a male from this line of Carrolls has taken the Y-DNA and the compared it with the
Charles Carroll of Carrollton DNA tests and also compared it to the Maccubbin DNA tests.
It should match the Maccubbin DNA.
I have no further information about this family.
