A John Kerr was married in
1921 to an Agnes McGrory in Coatbridge, where our John's father
William lived from at least 1908. However, the birth index for
Coatbridge around 1900 shows 9 entries of John Kerr in 9 years,
so it was quite a common name.
The only reliable record
found so far of our John Kerr is as the informant of two deaths,
both William Union.
On 7th November 1947,
John's cousin William Union, a Docker, died at 14 Inverkip Road (not
his normal residence) in Greenock. The death was reported by John
Kerr of 30 Whittington Street, Coatbridge, described as a "personal
friend".
On 12th November 1950,
John's father William Kerr (formerly Union), an Iron Works
Labourer, died at 30 Whittington Street, Coatbridge. The death
was reported by his son John Kerr.
