I am trying to find verification on the descendants of William Carroll b.
1790 and Sarah Cantrell from Rockingham NC. Sarah died and Willilam took
his family to McNairy Co. TN.
1830 and 1840 Rockingham Census
William, head of household plus 6 males and 4 females
1850 McNairy Census
William plus 5 sons (Henry, William, Daniel, John & Andrew) and 2 females
One of the missing females is William wife Sarah buried in NC
What happened to the other one?
Assuming the missing male is a son, there are two possibilities.
There is a David Carroll, 14 yrs older than the oldest of William's
children, living nearby in
McNairy Co. There is also a Monroe Carroll, whose age would put him in
between William's other sons, living as a laborer with the nearby Atkins
family. Monroe could also be Washington or W.M. Carroll. There is both a
David and a W. M. buried with others of William's sons in McNairy Co.
Anyone recognize these names or have suggestions on how to sort this out?
