William Carroll (3 January 1872 – 30 May 1936) was an Australian politician. Born in Garvoc, Victoria, he was educated at Horsham before moving to Western Australia during the gold rush to become a miner, and subsequently became a farmer at Tammin. He was General Secretary of the Western Australian Primary Producers' Association, and was a member of the Western Australian Legislative Council from 1923 to 1924. In 1925, he was elected to the Australian Senate as a Country Party Senator for Western Australia. He remained in the Senate until his death in 1936, necessitating the appointment of Thomas Marwick to replace him.
