History
A post office called Arroll was established in 1899, closed in 1914, reopened in 1938, and was discontinued in 1957.[3] The community derives its name from "Carroll" (the C was omitted by postal authorities in order to avoid repetition with another Carroll in the state).[4]
In 1925, Arroll had 36 inhabitants.[5]
