2012-03-31 I was pleased to hear from Marc Kerry  about his relative Mary Jane Compston who is a member of the Lancashire family tree 1

Message:
Mary married the Rev George Kerry at Serampore, India in 1895. 
Do you have more information about their time in India? Mary was working with a Indian women's Baptist group since she gave a report about this in New York at a Baptist World Congress.
