The village was established as "Centreville" on October 4, 1815, by Peter Bohart, owing to its location at the crossroads of the routes between Steubenville to Canton and New Lisbon to New Philadelphia. After the village became the county seat of the newly formed Carroll County, the name was changed on February 24, 1834.[6] The village derives its name from Charles Carroll of Carrollton, the last surviving signer of the Declaration of Independence.[7]

Many of the Fighting McCooks of Civil War fame lived in Carrollton. The Daniel McCook House is listed as a National Historic Place.[8]
