My mother's maiden name was McKerrow. My mother,Eunice, was one of the 5 daughters and 2 sons born to William C. McKerrow and Mary E. Clement. William McKerrow, my maternal grandfather, 1875-1948, was the eldest of many siblings including James McKerrow, George McKerrow and Jack Orren McKerrow and several sisters. All the information stemming from William and Mary McKerrow are available on the Jon Steen Family Tree of Ancestry.com. It's great to hear that 'Dragonqueen' is my first cousin ! I remember my Uncle George and Aunt Florence very well.<br /> By the way, Lois Mayer is really the late Lois Maher (passed away over 10 yrs ago )from Ft. Francis, Ontario on the northern shore of Lake Superior. Lois had a great interest and connection to the Emmetts.<br /><br />4 April 2019 at 11:00 AMJon Steenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12100824961462971940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6422178857419841088.post-67498101061959623912018-12-30T14:24:40.345-08:002018-12-30T14:24:40.345-08:00What an interesting read.

My name is David John McKerrow and I am thril...Hi. My name is David John McKerrow and I am thrilled to find an explanation and history of the surname. I'm the son of Clarence Arthur George McKerrow (b. 1919 in North Bay, Ontario Canada) who is the son of James McKerrow (b. ?, in Black Donald, Ontario which is just west of Ottawa).<br /><br />A brother of my grandfather (James) was the general manager of the Abitibi Paper mill near North Espanola and South Espanola in Northern Ontario, Canada. My father has related that there was so much confusion for freight deliveries, etc., that McKerrow changed the name of North Espanola to his own surname. McKerrows are a modest bunch! I've visited New Zealand a couple times and was most interested to learn that "McKerrow" is much better known there than in Canada. Thanks again for the research on the McKerrow name.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14409221343202014660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6422178857419841088.post-21809978481989099742008-12-09T21:54:00.000-08:002008-12-09T21:54:00.000-08:00typed a bunch but lost it when isigned in.(needed ...typed a bunch but lost it when isigned in.(needed my "geeks" help) In fact this is the first time I have enterd anything. I am the adopted dauhter of Geoprge Clemant McKerrow. It is really nice to find out that my pronounciation of the name is the proper pronounciation.<BR/>George Clement McKerrow<BR/>born nov 30,1910 died Mar 10, 1997<BR/>married to Florence Margaret Hoagland Sept 23<BR/>Always pronounced the name mckairroe as apposed to mckehrow<BR/>Our last historian was Lois Mayer. Her daughter has taken over but don't know thw name(my mother has dementia) and cannot tell me anything. And no one cared enough to research anything. Guess now that the internet is around things are easier.<BR/><BR/>Have been told that McKerrow, Ontario is named after a great uncle. Or is it great-great? <BR/>Remember being at a derelict train stop when I was a chail and now it is a town on the map.<BR/>My father did not instil anything in me. I always wanted to search on my own.<BR/>IU always knew I was adopted but did npot know I was of Scottish decent. Hearxd the pipes and then was told my ancestry was scottish.<BR/>Always cry when I hear the pipes. <BR/>So... info on G.C.,McKerrow would appreciated. <BR/>Now why, in this address, is McKerrow<BR/>chosen to be spell checked.dragonqueen1https://www.blogger.com/profile/03564280813698831746noreply@blogger.com
