master brummie
Dead end for his father on marriage certificate. Married 1895 to Sophia Neale. Have marriege cert with his father Vincent Kerr, profession, soldier. Apologies if posted incorrectly. Any expert help would be very grateful. Anymore info available other than his father. Tried everything for a long time. There is always someone more knowledgeable and helpful. Will make a decent donation if anyone has proof etc. It's my wifes gt grandfather. Thank you, mrbluesky. Screenshot_20240825_173406.jpg
 
You may have already looked at these but this is all I could find...

There's a Vincent Kerr listed on the 1861 British Army Worldwide Index (findmypast) though I don't think there's anymore info from that.

There's a Vincent Kerr on the 1858 Military Court Martial Registers (fold3).

And finally there's a Vincent Carr (a reasonable error) b1820ish listed on the 1841 census in Reading. Coincidently there appears to be a Harriot Neale at the same address.
 
i dont know if this is of any help but both father and son seem to be down as henry vincent kerr on the 1901 census wife sophia...thats is assuming i have the correct person

Very interesting as usual MWS. I didn't know he had a sister? Like Lyn said I have Henry Vincent, then Vincent. Intrigued about sisters name. Hopefully more info from wives cousin. Thank you once again. Keith.
