I would like to have John Kay birth date and his parents names , how can we get this information if he was born and England or ever what boat he came over on , or you thank he Swaim

---

Margaret Elizabeth Kay Taylor obituary in Greenville County,  I can't read the record but on Ancestry.com it shows this as her name, and where the Obituary can be found, but they may have been another lady , I guess I will put a note and maybe someone will clarify it, I also see her in Trees but I don't like going by Trees, Thanks

---

I found record of a speculative DOB will look more I dislike speculation on wikitree

---

I have found records of a John Kay however I have no proof at this time that they match the family in question as some of the spelling is different and don't match up with current sourced information unless its possible that he married 2 times

---

I do know my family was from Sullivan Township, Laurens County, South Carolina I don't know much more, I also see in Terry Taylo  family Tree it says they from Liverpool England and both John Kay ' s parents was born their,  I don't know

I would like to look at that Obituary Margaret Elizabeth Kay Taylor,  I will try and look it up again,  Thanks for helping
