Hi,
Of course there are African American Carroll families who relate to the European or other
Carroll's but it will be with the help of DNA testing that these relationships can
proved along with research. Here is an interesting link about the Black descendents of
Thomas Jefferson, one of our Founding Fathers;

more information. But if you can find a male family member with the Carroll surname I
suggest that you consider having them join the Carroll Surname project at FamilyTreeDNA.
You can find more information about this at

Good luck!!
