Hey Sirin,

There is a GENFORUM for Carrick, and there are inquiries about the Earl on that site. Here are a few more sites about the decendants of the Earl(s) of Carrick.

What's the question?
Earl is a title.
Carrick is a district in Ayr (southern Scotland).
Carrick as an English surname is also datable to the 13th century in Oxford, which suggestions there may be another derrivation.

Robert the Bruce, King of Scotland inhereted the Earldom of Carrick from his mother, I believe, and it was passed on to his Stewart descendants.
