Biographical History
Howard Carroll was born in Albany, NY, on Sept. 17, 1854. His father, also named Howard Carroll, was a general in the Union Army and was killed at Antietam. Carroll was educated in Albany, New York City, and in Europe. He married Caroline Starin, the daughter of New York Congressman John Starin, and they had one daughter, Caramai, and two sons, Arthur and Lauren, who probably attended Harvard Law School. Carroll eventually became a Washington correspondent and special writer for the New York Times. Later, he left journalism and became a businessman and financier, serving as president of the Sicilian Asphalt Paving Co. and working in his wife's family's business, Starin Transportation. Carroll also wrote several plays and books and was involved in politics and public affairs. He served as president of the New York Tercentenary Commission, held the rank of Brigadier General in the New York militia, and was the inspector of New York troops during the Spanish-American War. Carroll died suddenly on December 30, 1916; his obituary appeared in the New York Times one day later. His life sketch is in the Dictionary of American Biography.
