Hello Everyone,
I have got a HUGE request! I have been trying to get over this wall for a
good long time now. If anyone out there can help in any way, I surly would
appreciate it!
Ellen Delia "Lydie" Carroll was born 7 March 1863. My mother told me that
it was in Prince George county MD, and that is what the death certificate
says. Her parents died when she was very young, and she was raised by an
older sister whom she called Sadie. Ellen's death cert. shows her parents
to be Thomas Carroll and (Dash, no first name) Littlefool. Now, that could
be neglect on the part of the registrar. The name could be Littlefoot or
Littleford, but it looks like Littlefool. Birthplace for Thomas is MD, but
a dash is in the space for birthplace of mother. She is buried in Forrest
Lawn cem., Richmond VA.
Ellen's sister Sadie, or Sally married George Maddox and moved to Boston
where she died. On her death certificate, Her parents are listed as John T
Carroll of MD and Ellen Littlefoot, also of MD. It also lists her date of
death as 1937 at age 79.
I have 1850 census for PGC MD that shows a family of Jno F Carroll age 26,
Ellen 25, Sarah 3, and Henry 1, all born in MD. I am not sure that this is
the right family. If I take the death certificate as correct, Sarah was not
born until 1858.
If any one has access to 1850, 1860, or 1870 census, would you mind checking
to see if there are any possibities? I do not have anything on the 60 or
70, and just this one listing for the 1850.
Thanks for the help!!!
Margo
