Notities over Sir Thomas Kerr of Oxnam, 9th baron of Ferniehirst

of Oxnam, later of Ferniehirst

Thomas Kerr (Carr) became the 9th Baron of Ferniehirst Castle. He was also noted for his involvement with Mary
Stuart, Queen of Scots. (From notes of David W Carr) The name of Carr, Ker, Kerr or Karre is as old as the
Norman Conquest by William of Normandy in 1066. One of the followers of William I is recorded in the Roll Of
The Gattle Abbey as the name of Karre.The early descendants of this Norman soldier and succeeding generations
spread on both sides of the border of England and Scotland.Direct lines can be traced through various peerage
books of England and Scotland to Andrew Kerr I, the 6th Baron of Ferniehirst, Scotland. He was born in 1450 ,
created Baron in 1480 and knighted in 1483. He and his son Andrew II, 7th Baron of Ferniehirst, were
remarkable men for talent and undaunted courage, conspicious in reigns of James IV and James V. Andrew Kerr
II, died in 1543. His son Sir John Kerr, 8th Baron of Ferniehirst, did great service against the English and rescued
Queen Mary from incursions by the English against the Scots. Sir Thomas, 9th Baron and son of Sir John, was
also devoted to Queen Mary's interests. (Quoted from Watson's 'The House of Carr'1926).
This is as far back as I felt was necessary. The Kerr genealogy as stated in the above paragraph, goes back to
Normandy in France and the days of William the Conquerer. I have provided additional documentation under the
Carr family.
