Mac Cearbhaill is a Gaelic Irish clan belonging to the Three Collas kinship group, who were during the 11th and 12th centuries, kings of Airgíalla. Their name has been Anglicised as MacCarroll, Carroll, Carvill, MacCarville and various other spellings. The clan are associated especially with south-eastern Ulster and northern Leinster. They have numerous descendants in County Monaghan, County Louth, County Down, County Tyrone and elsewhere. In later times they were known as prominent musicians. The family lost out during the Norman invasion of Ireland, though their kinsmen the Mac Mathghamhna and Mag Uidhir hung on for longer.
