To send a PM - click on my 'user name' and this will open a new window. Scroll down till you see 'Send this Rootschatter a Private Message', click that  and type your message. To see if you have a Private Message, go to the very top of the page and you'll see wording 'Welcome back, nanapam, you have XX messages'. Just click on 'messages' and that will take you to your Private Messages. I'll send you one after I asend this message.

The photos posted on the boards have to be greatly reduced - so to print one out would work - providing you've got a magnifying glass!

Hello you two,
                        I live near Slamannan and will go and try to get a photo of the Kerr grave. I have relatives in there
too having been born in Avonbridge,

James Kerr.

Hello James,

That would be brilliant!

Hopefully there'll be a stone for you to photograph. The CWGC stone above was the best I could do to identify the Section and the Kerr Lair shouldn't be too far away from it.

Hello James.
Do you think you may be related to these people, I think there are still some family members living in and around the slamannan area, Though quite a few of them moved to Lancashire in the first quarter of the 1900s.
Any photos of the area would be very much appreciated to add to our history book.
Kind Regards
                     Pam and Peter Kerr.

Nan & Peter,
                      I'm not related to the Kerr family from Slamannan, my family are all accounted for, they came from Dumfries & Galloway.

I will get some photos for you over the weekend (weather permitting) Slamannan has fallen into some dissrepair in recent years, indeed it will still look the same as it was when your family were alive in the 40s, 50s, and 60s.

James Kerr.

Nan,
         The forecast for this area is snow over the weekend, so I thought I better get over there today.
Thanks to Anne, I didn't have to search about too much and found the grave fairly easily.

Here is a photo of the Grave of the Kerr family. I have more which I will send full size for printing if you have
managed to follow Anne's instructions regarding sending me a PM with your email address. If you can't do
that I will send you a PM with my email address so we can talk off site and exchange photos.

James.
