History

The town was first settled circa 1822. The Town of Carrollton was formed on March 9, 1842 from the town of Great Valley.

In 1877, the community of Limestone set itself off from the town by incorporating as a village. In 2011, this community reverted to being a hamlet within the town because voters agreed to dissolve the village in 2009.
