James Kerr

[BlueTans]

Hello folks

I don't suppose anyone has any details on a James Kerr born in Torphichen approx 1853?  I think he was a joiner by trade and moved to Glasgow.  He married Agnes Nicol Kerr (ms Marshall, born in Shotts) and had children John (c 1884), James (c1886), Henry D (c1889), Jean Gillespie (or Jeanie, c 1892) and Edward M (c1896).

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks

Brilliant!

Now I need to start looking out for the daughter Janie G.  It could be fun as I think she is listed as Jean, Jeanie and Janie!  Off to look for the birth certificates now I think!

I really appreciate the lookups, thank you!
