Gurr From Peasmarsh England to Wisconsin via ?? (1860s)
I have roots in the Alexander Gurr family from Peasmarsh, Sussex, England. They immigrated to Rio, Wisconsin in the early to mid 1860's.
Alexander and Carolina had a son, George Kenward (Kenard) Gurr born 1839 in Sussex who moved with them. He subsequently married Amanda M. Kelley (Kelly) do Hugh Kelley from Glasgow. Amanda was born in Augusta, Maine 22 May 1847 and died 13 May 1901 in Alden, MI.
Emily Gurr sister of George Kenward married a Payne and their daughter Clara married John Vine also of Wisconsin. Their daughter, May L. Vine lived for a while with George in Michigan.
If any of this sounds familiar please let me know.
Thanks,
Jeff
