I don't have a Charles or Henderson in my Carroll line, but I would like to offer you
a suggestion.
There are many, many Charles Carrolls. Just looking at the Census records and using the
exact spelling, in 1790 there are 4 Charles Carrolls, all in Maryland. By 1830, there are
10, 4 in MD, 1 in Alabama, 1 in New York, 1 in North Carolina, 1 in Ohio, 1 in South
Carolina, 1 in Virginia. By 1930 (the last census published), there are 1054 Charles
Carrolls in 47 states.
The first Henderson Carroll, again using exact spelling, is in the 1870 Federal Census, 1
in NC and 1 in VA; 1880 has 4 - 2 in LA, 1 in VA, 1 in NC; 1900 has 4 - 1 in KY, 1 in NC,
1 in TN, 1 in VA; 1910 has 4 - 1 in KY, 1 in TN, 2 in VA; 1920 has 7 - 1 in DC, 2 in KY, 2
in TN, 2 in VA; 1930 has 6 - 1 in KY, 3 in TN, 2 in VA.
So, I think you can see that it would help other researchers to know what time frame your
Charles and Henderson were living and where they lived; also, if you are interested in
knowing more about Charles Carrolls wifes family, any details you have on her would be
helpful.
Good luck in your search.
