I have a note that Daniel CARROLL had a brother possibly called Thomas who married
Elizabeth HOGG. Together they had three children Daniel (1696-1751), Charles and Edward.
This Daniel married Eleanor Darnell and had a son also called Daniel (1730-1796) who
married an Eleanor Carroll. I think it was this Daniel Carroll of Rock Creek who signed
the Constitution and Articles of Confederation.
Full details on my website at:

Ronald Hoffman's excellent book Princes of Ireland, Planters of Maryland- A Carroll
Saga 1500-1782 has some genealogical charts but these dont throw any light on the siblings
of Daniel of Litterluna.
There is another possible sibling, Col Francis Carroll who survived the Battle of the
Boyne (1690) and served in France in the Irish Brigade and died in the battle of
Marsaglia. I believe that my ancestor, Thomas ,was his first Lieutenant at the Boyne.
