The best place to start is Scotlands People you will need to register with them which is free .www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk

They have all the original documents for Scotland if the family had no contact with their father it would be a bit pointless trying to view marriage certificate's as I suggested

There is a mention of the brother John Kerr who died on www.findagrave.com with a picture of the grave stone

Not seeing any records so far of immigration  ???

Her Mother Agnes died in 1934, and her Father provided for 5 years, which would take the date to 1939, when nothing more was heard of him. This of course was when WW2 broke out, which might be a route to check out.
I have tried to attach copies of David's birth record, and also his marriage record, but it seems they are too big for Rootschat's system, so if you want to PM me with your email address to have a copy, I will happily have another go at attaching them for you.
Regards,
Essex/Dorset/Berks

The valuation rolls show that
Mrs Agnes KERR was tenant occupier at 17 Argyle Street in 1930 and in 1935

So this would have been the address of David’s mother who died in 1937.
Milligan - Jardine – Glencross – Dinwoodie - Brown: (Dumfriesshire & Kirkcudbrightshire)
Clark – Faulds – Cuthbertson – Bryson – Wilson: (Ayrshire & Renfrewshire)
Neale – Cater – Kinder - Harrison: (Warwickshire & Queensland)
Roberts - Spry: (Cornwall, Middlesex & Queensland)
Munster: (Schleswig-Holstein & Queensland) and Plate: (Braunschweig, Neubruck & Queensland & New York)

The 1973 death IS NOT the correct death for David.
