Hello again csc, gripping but I have a couple of questions for you . Are you saying that there was a William, son to John and jean Kerr and that George was a son to William, have you details for these two people?. Can you clarify re James Kerr first wife was Jannet Johnston and second spouse was Grace Graham?. The references to James related to the same person in your posting. thanks stoop.
