In the space above is the name James Bow. The 1st name Charles has been scored out, but it is still legible. The names of the parents for James Bow Kemp on the certificate are James Kemp and Marion Pearson. James Kemp and Marion Pearson were my 2Xs gt grandparents, James Bow Kemp was your 4Xs gt grandfather, my gt grandmother Marion Kemp was James Bow Kemp`s sister, making us distant cousins. Colin.
