He was married May 28, 1865, at Thomasville, to Mrs. Sophronia E. Raneau, nee Chastain, widow of Russell Raneau of Thomasville. By her one child was born, Bessie who married ______ May of Thomas County. The children by the first marriage were:

Sometime during the 1860's, James Carroll moved from his plantation near Milltown, to the village of Stockton, then Clinch County, and lived there until 1867. He moved back and bought a home in Milltown, where he was living when he died September 25, 1869. He had gone to Valdosta on business and had a heart attack in the law office of Peeples & Liles, and expired within a few minutes. He was buried in the old town cemetery at Milltown (now Lakeland), where his first wife was buried.

Mr. Carroll was a member of the Milltown Baptist Church, and his son, Edwin B., became a very prominent Baptist pastor in Georgia. Mr. Carroll was also a member of the Masonic order, and his membership was in the old Butler Lodge No. 211 at Milltown. He died a member.
