Tracing the Kerr Family Line

This blog is dedicated to tracing the genealogy of the Kerr (Karr) family line. The farthest I have been able to trace the line, thus far, is to Thomas Kerr and Ann Clarke. However, the information I have is on his son, Thomas. Other than Thomas and Ann being his parents, I have no other information.

Ann Kerr Miller

Annie Kerr & Charles Miller's Cook County Marriage Certificate


vii. Ann Kerr was born _____-Mar 1883 in Chicago, Cook, Illinois, USA, died _____- _____-_____ in __________, __________, __________, and was buried _____-_____- _____ in __________, __________, __________.

Ann married Charles H. Miller on 25 Jun 1913 in Chicago, Cook, Illinois, USA. Marriage status: married. Charles was born in _____-_____-1892 in La Grange, Cook, Illinois, USA, died _____-_____-_____ in __________, __________, __________, and was buried _____-_____-_____ in __________, __________, __________.

Ann Kerr is the eldest known child to have survived. According to my records, Both Thomas and Alice came to America in 1882. Having been married in 1880, they could have to come to America with one or two children.

There are time gaps between many of the children. So, they all could have been born over here. According to the 1900 census, Alice was the mother of 11 children, but only 6 were living at the time of the census. As already stated, family history indicated a baker's dozen.

Ann married Charles Miller and then they somehow ended up in Michigan. They had 2 sons that I am aware - Bud lived in Kalamazoo and Tom lived somewhere around Detroit. I have not been able to locate Bud or Tom.
