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.
