Stark,
Columbiana,
Jefferson, Harrison, and Tuscarawas. See the evolution of the local county boundries, and the sections transferred into Carroll Co.
The county was named after Charles Carroll, last surviving signer of the Declaration of Independence. Originally, Carrollton was called Centerville when it was founded.
