Dear Bill, This is probably not much use to you but I do have a connection with the family Kerr and the town of Troqueer. My great great grandfather Edward Thomson was married to one Elizabeth Kerr om 2nd Sept 1836 at Dumfries. Elizabeth Kerr was born in Dumfries on 28th July 1807 and died at Troqueer on 5th Dec 1844.. Her father is given as John Kerr. Who knows, there may be a connection somewhere, Best of British Luck, John Thomson

There were a few KERR families in Leven, Fife in the 1800s. You can check them out on the IGI- just put in KERR, Scotland and you will get a long list. Doreen

Hello John, Do you have the Monument Inscription for the KERR family and your Edward THOMSON? If not, I can forward the details to you, also 1841 census entry.
