The death date of June 5, 1796 is incorrect. Daniel Carroll died on May 7, 1796. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Compmary (talkcontribs) 18:02, 8 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

Adapted?

edit

The article may say that it was "adapted" from the US military site, but it appears to be more or less the same thing. You might as well go to the original site. I should add this to my list of stuff to do, I have a report on him somewhere... BunnyFlying (talk) 19:29, 16 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

Apparent Cousins?

edit

I never cease to be amused by the sloppiness with which Wiki deals with kinship. What does it mean to say Charles Carroll of Carrollton and Eleanor Carroll were "apparently first cousins"? That they probably were but perhaps they weren't? Given the prominence of the Carroll family in Maryland, it is unlikely that nobody knows. After all, first cousins are pretty easy to check. I would first see if their fathers were brothers and indeed they were. According to wikiTree, his father was Charles Carroll of Annapolis, her father was Daniel Carroll of Duddington, the sons of Charles Carroll the Settler aka the Immigrant. This is confirmed by a tree on the site Charles Carroll House of Annapolis (charlescarrollhouse.org). 2601:18E:C501:5FE2:7ACA:39FF:FEB2:EFCB (talk) 03:27, 26 September 2016 (UTC)Reply

As an amateur genealogist I investigated this claim a bit. I do not think things are as simple as that 2016 Wiki editor implies. Instead some websites that show Eleanor as grand-daughter of Charles the Settler show Daniel as NOT the grandson of that Settler. There seem to have been two different Carroll lines (themselves very distant cousins), intermarrying with each other. Jamesdowallen (talk) 08:03, 3 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

No mention of slave-owning. I feel that this category should be restricted to people whose slave-owning history was notable in itself. Valetude (talk) 21:03, 21 April 2021 (UTC)Reply
