General Notes: Husband - Joseph Kerr


He came from Eastern Pennsylvania about 1800, and resided in Allegheny Township, Butler County, Pennsylvania, until his death. The family were Presbyterians.

In early life he removed to Ashtabula County, Ohio, served in the War of 1812 from that county, and soon afterwards settled in Venango town-ship, Butler County, Pennsylvania. He cleared and improved a farm, upon which he resided down to his death.
