Thanks, Heather, if you have any additional info. about William and Rose, I would appreciate it. Can you give a little more info. on your William Carr so I can keep an eye out for him. I live in Pennsylvania. There's a large family in South Carolina with several William Carrs.

Thanks, Carole for the info. I'm 85% sure this is my gggrandfather, but there are so many William Carrs. I'm trying to get his marriage certificate here in the states to verify his birthdate. I also see that the name kept changing from Carr to Kerr and that they moved from Ireland to Scotland. I always thought it should be the other way around and that my family went from Scotland to Ireland. Just a little confusing.
Thanks again
