102. Harold Clay (Tavener) Kerr [scrapbook] (Henry Clay , Harry Clay , Franklin Benjamin , Thomas ) was born on 14 Apr 1911 in New Jersey. He died on 18 Nov 1983 in Memorial General Hospital, Union Township, Union County, New Jersey. He was related to his parents by guardianship.

NOTE from Frank Tavener: As of yet, my brother and I haven't been able to establish the connection between the Tavener and Kerr families. We only know that our uncle -- Harold C. Kerr -- was called Harold C. Tavener throughout his school years and lived with our paternal grandparents during this time period. After finishing school, he changed his surname to Kerr. On the "Births" page of the Tavener Family Bible, Harold "Tavener" is listed as being born on 6 Apr 1911.

Tavener - Kerr Connection Update - Aug 2010
Thanks to information provided by Michael R. Horvath and Georgeann Quinn, I was able to connect Harolds mother back to her maiden name. She was born Christina M. A. Truscott, in Dover, Morris County, New Jersey, in April 1888, and is the sister of my paternal grandmother Emma May Truscott. Christina was married twice, first to James George and then to John Kerr.

(NOTE: When Harold was born in 1911, the George family already had four small children and six months before Harold was born, Christina's sister Emma married my grandfather, Henry Tavener. Emma brought two older children (about 18 to 20 years old) from her first marriage into this marriage. So, it could be possible that Christina and James asked Emma and Henry to raise Harold as their own child. I believe that, in hard times, this was not unheard of and was done within families to ease expenses, cramped space, etc., for everyone in the family. In any case, school records show that Harold was called “Harold Tavener” throughout his school years and he lived with my grandparents and my father as a son and brother. It is concievible that when Harold found out that Emma and Henry were not his biological parents, he decided to use his mothers surname of Kerr, because by this time, his mother had married John Kerr.)
