Those entries are incorrect.There was another John Green who married a Jane Kerr, but I've corresponded with their descendants, and they both went to Alabama, close to Birmingham.That John Green is related to my John Green, but was a few years older, and married Jane Kerr before my John was old enough to be married.There's quite a bit of information, including pictures, on them at http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~greengarden/Kerr/kerr_family_abbeville_south_carolina.htmhttp://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~greengarden/Kerr/kerr_family_abbeville_south_carolina.htm
What information do you have on Jane's death?I haven't found anything about her after her divorce from William Beauchamp.I'd love to know her date and place of death.
I'm totally stuck on Jane.I know there were Bickerstaffs in Jackson County, Georgia, but they're pretty well documented, and she doesn't show up in any wills or family trees.Some of my old family documents say her last name was Wickliffe, but that's even more of a black hole than Bickerstaff -- there weren't even any Wickliffes around, by any spelling whatsoever.
Marsha McClure, John Greene and Bill Lindsey have sorted out the Abbeville Greens, and made great progress on those lines.Marsha set up a DNA project that finally got us past South Carolina and to Quakers who came from England in 1686.
How is your work going?
