Hi,
I don't know where my Carroll family originated in Ireland but my great grandfather, John Carroll, arrived in Massachusetts, USA around 1870 and worked in a foundry in Lowell, MA.
My brother and my daughter have DNA loaded on Gedmatch.com.. (kit # A834397 JOE CARROLL, A198766 CMC Christie Cunningham)
If you load your Carroll DNA to this website and we have a match, please let me know!
Thanks,
Joanne Carroll

My name is Richard and I am researching the Carroll’s in hopes of locating where my relatives came from in Ireland. My g-grandfather Patrick Carroll was born about 1828, and immigrated to the US probably in late 1840’s. He lived, worked and raised a family in Macon County, Illinois area. I am hoping to find a Carroll or relative of in Ireland to email with and hopefully exchange information.
