KERN / LAIR; USA; 1861-1913 Seeking data on Edward Elmer Kern b. Feb.22, 1861 (possibly in Wisconsin) d. Jan. 25, 1913 in Manhattan, Kansas. AKA Edward Elmer Lair -- apparently adopted into the Lair family at some point. No adoption records have been found, and at that time may have been a very informal arrangement with no records. His death certificate gives his father as William Lair, so I would also be very interested in this person. He married an Anna Mosely in Baldwin, Ks. Thanks for any leads. -- To reply by email change "solair" to "rialtos" ---------------------------------------------- solair <rialtos@postoffice.att.net>
