I would agree that the name Margaret Caldwell KERR would encourage you to see

......William Kerr 1 born in 1776 to Robert Kerr and Margaret Caldwell.....

to be the family you are looking for.

Have you found siblings for Margaret Caldwell KERR, who might also have earlier family names as given names.
