Re: James Kear From Scotland to NC & Tennessee

Michael, I also follow the James Kear and Mary "Mollie" Shelton family through their son John who married Elizabeth Creek (he had a first marriage to Hannah Langley).I do have three other children to add to your list.Mourning Carr was born 1790 and married a Joel Buckner.There was an un-named child born in 1806.Also, Anderson Kear who was born in 1812 and married Cynthia Huff.Sarah Baker Huff who married Joel Kear is the daughter of Leonard and Sarah Huff.I would love to have more information about the various Kear children.Also information about the Huff name and Buckner as so many of the children married into those families.I will be glad to share my descendants through John's line....by the way,somewhere along the line they changed their name to Carr.My Kear/Carr family, for the most part, moved to Harper Co., Kansas from Sevier Co., Tennessee.
