THANK YOU!  I had most of the information but I am always grateful for any confirmation.  I didn't know the date in 1836 for death of Phillis Kerr but now have it recorded.    Also I have confusing birth dates for John Ker but have now recorded 1801 which fits with info I received many years ago.   I get excited by every new bit!!

Hi, Thanks.  As yet I can't figure out how to post to a new thread but will keep trying.  I believe they married around 1826.  I have tried scotlandspeople but not found them.   
I will keep trying.  Thanks again.

Hi Jan.
I presume you wish to start a new topic in "Scotland" - "Scotland General" - "Dumfries-shire"
If so, I have gone to where you need to start the new thread/topic, so just click on the link below and it will take you there.  ;) When you get to there, enter a subject at the top of the dialog box and then start your new topic.
Good luck.
Graham
