Has anyone found passenger lists in the 1700's for Carroll/Carrel/Carrol/O'Carroll
?

The cost of DNA testing at FTDNA is $248. This is for the 67-marker test
in the Carroll surname project at FTDNA, which is what you need to tell
what your Carroll origins are. There are 25 different Carroll origins in
the Carroll surname project at FTDNA, including 6 major ones.
The Irish for Carroll is Ó Cearbhaill (the b is silent when followed by
an h). No one has that name today. Most names today are Carroll and
variants of Carroll.

I have long had 2 burning questions: Aunt Louise stated in her 1960s
genealogy that 4 Carroll brothers "appeared" in Dorchester Co, MD
around the time of the Revolutionary War- are we CERTAIN they were
recent immigrants? There were Carroll families already in this
country living in Virginia prior to this time. We need to seek
immigration records. There is an email discussion list called "The
Ships List" which discusses and gives hints with regarding to find
passage records of individuals. Of course records are not easy to
find for the 1700s, but there is some chance.
My other question being IF the brothers were immigrants from N.
Ireland, are we certain the actual surname was Carroll or could it be
a variant from an Irish Gaelic name?
I believe DNA trails are worth investigating but I've made the
suggestion and it appears the Carroll males I know simply aren't
interested. The cost is far less than it was, beginning about $100.
Additionally, some surname projects give a discount or free testing
for surname in their project. I don't recomment 23&Me and
ancestry.com is not as compatible. Family Tree DNA is presently the
standard, I believe.
