Kerr family
« on: Sunday 19 March 06 23:06 GMT (UK) »
I'm looking for a William Kerr, born 1815 in Ireland, he was of Scottish Decent, and spent part of his life in Westport and Ballina, on the Moy River, in the County of Mayo. In Westport he was employed as a factory Clerk. by 1842, he was in Canada, he had married, in 1843, he had a son named William. His first wife died soon after child birth. Sorry this is all I have on his life in Ireland.
Charlene ???
