Lingle Rorabaugh Ballew Contacts What's New
Contacts
The following are e-mail addresses for relatives with whom I have corresponded on family history topics. I will display email addresses as a graphical image. While this disables the ability to click on the email to send a message, it also makes the address impossible to be picked up by junk-mail robots. This method is being used with the hope that my cousins' email addresses will not receive junk mail as a result of being displayed on this site.  I'm sure we all get enough as it is!

Ernest James (Jimmy) Carroll  -
Jimmy is the son of George Ernest Carroll, the son of George M. Carroll, the son of John Wiley Carroll, the son of our common ancestor, Nathan C. Carroll. Though just a few years older than me, he is one additional generation from our common ancestor than I am. Thus, we are second cousins, once removed. Added to Contacts list 12-21-02. Jimmy is a very enthusiastic researcher and very interesting to talk to. He lives in Erie, Illinois.

Here are some pictures that Jimmy has submitted!

Jimmy visited Jay Carroll in Oklahoma in 2005 and sent pictures of the three Ernest J. Carroll's in the family!
