As the previous posting discussing Mary Calhoun (abt. 1743-1805), daughter of Ezekiel Calhoun and Jane/Jean Ewing and wife of Samuel Kerr, states, the will that Mary made in Abbeville County, South Carolina, on 21 January 1805 names the following children: John Kerr, Jane Kerr Green, Catherine Kerr McLain, and Ruth Kerr.[1] I am naming these children in what I think was their order of birth, not the order in which their mother Mary names them in her will.
