Yes Ma'am, I sure am. Robert and Eliza are my GG Grandparents. I know that
Eliza's father was William Carrel/Carell who married Mary Love Dec 1841 in
Fountain County, IN. Eliza was born Dec 1843, then Mary remarries Apr 1845.
William just disappears. That is brickwall #1. (And there are not Carrolls
(of any spelling) in the vacinity of Fountain County in 1840.)
Brickwall #2 is David Love. This family is very confusing. First of all,
according to the 1840 census, David Love would have been born in the 1790's
instead of 1777. Also, I checked the 1880 census records for all of his
children. They have his birth places as: Can, Ireland, NY, OH, and IN. And
I obtained the death certificate for his daughter Eliza, who died in
Streator, LaSalle Co, IL in 1916 (last surviving child), which shows his
birthplace as Penn. (I thought maybe if I went to his birthplace, I could
work forward.) Do you know if David owned any land in either IN or IL?
As an interesting side note, Mary Love's brother James married Robert
William's widowed mother Nancy Miller Williams in the mid to late 1840's.
I'm glad to have finally found someone who is researching the same thing I am.
Where do we go from here?
Thanks so very much for posting.

Is anyone working on Eliza Ann Carroll who married Robert Williams. Her mother
was Mary Love Carroll Justice b.22 July 1819 and d. 22 Jun 1891 Nebr.? I am
trying to find about Mary Love Carroll Justice as well as her husband and
family. David Love born March 23 1777 was her father. Her second husband was
David Justice born 15 Mar 1815 died 26 April 1864. Her brother Richard was born
in Ross Co, OH in 1824.
