Vernon again. I started this 10 yrs ago and put it down because my daughter kept me busy with all her activities. I have been to Ohio Historical soc. once with my mother. Right now I have so much yard work, the computer is easy because i can sit down for 5-10 min. between jobs. Pa genweb is good,but it is all volunteer work and doesn't have much. However, I have to admit that it has furthered my research somewhat. I know one thing, Chambers is big name in areaof PA that I stated in last e-mail-CHAMBERSBURG,Franklin Co.,PA. The Chambers brothers settled areas that both my Kerr and arbuckle ancestors lived in. It would be really interesting and fun if you could make that connection-go there and take a look at history of Franklin co. Also, and you probably know all this already- that area lost most of it's young families to Knox and Crawford counties of Ohio when militart districts went up for sale. It was an exodus of pretty significant proportion. i believe that since we are both working on this, we could get these Kerr families straightened out. I mean there just weren't that many people in 1800. Martinsburg is a lonely crossroads today and Frederick town isn't that large. Do go to PA genweb and then tell me what you think. Later, Patti- Oh
