Owen County Historical & Genealogical Society
Dear Sir / Madam:
My name is Richard Carr. I am the son of Jay R. Carr, the Grandson of John
E. Carr, the greatgrandson of John F, Carr, the greatgreatgrandson of Eli
Kerr (Carr), and the greatgreatgreatgrandson of William Kerr and his wife
Jane Miller. Years ago, I subscribed to the [INOWEN]Owen County Historical
& Genealogical Society internet page and have received notices every since.
At that time, I tried, unsuccessfully, to learn something about William &
Jane Kerr. We do know they both died in the spring of 1850 and that that he
was a Justice of the Peace in Owen County, but nothing else. I now note
that in boxes 211 and 181 as noted in the extract from your web information
reproduced below there might be additional information regarding these
ancestors. Would you possibly be able to copy and forward any such
information that I might learn about them. We know that they moved to
Indiana from Ohio and to Ohio from Pennsylvania, but have never been able to
prove the name of Williams father or siblings.
Help would be much appreciated.
Dick Carr.
