Mary, noticed your posting. My 3rd great grandfather Rev John Kerns was the
son of a Jacob Kern/s and that is the only information that I have other
than his date of birth in 1809 as far as ancestry goes. I do have the Rev
John Kerns & wife Edna Smith and they were the parents of my Caroline Kerns
who married Elisha West Sinex. Am I of this Switzerland County Kern/s
family or are there now 3 families out of southern Indiana?

I have the obituary and Memoirs of the Rev John Kerns on my website for
anyone wishing to view them in hopes of a connection ~
