Message Board Post:
I'm trying to locate any information (and hopefully, ancestry) about my
great-grandfather on my mother's side, a Fred Carroll. All my family and I know about
him was that he was b. abt. 1903 (he was 22 when my grandmother was born in 1925), that he
had stomach problems (the most likely cause of his death), he was a textile worker, and
was part-Cherokee. Great-Grandpa Fred had an aunt Mae (or May--not sure of the spelling)
who was blind and lived in North Carolina.
Fred m. my great-grandmother, Bessie Mae Caldwell, b. in 1908 in Silacauga, Talledega Co.,
AL and d. 1971 in Macon, GA. Great-Grandpa Fred was living in GA at the time of my
grandmother, Mattie Lou Carroll, b. 10 March 1925 in Columbus, GA. Any help would be
appreciated.

(Also, our Fred can't be the one who is the son of Sam and Lizzie Carroll, as that
Fred was four years older than ours and was never married to my great-grandmother.)
