Kathy
(Carrow) Ingram
Kathy
completed her post-graduate work at Rutgers University and acquired some
doctoral credits in anthropology in 1985. She met and married Jim Ingram,
a construction engineer from New Jersey who has his fingerprints on the
construction of Toy-R-Us, Best Stores, land fills and water towers throughout
NJ and PA. Kathy completed her career as a social worker for the state
of Jersey in 2002 and she and Jim retired to North Carolina where they
raise and show horses and ponies. They boast of 4 children and 6 grandchildren.
Jim's family history has been relatively easy to follow. His parents came
as adults from Scotland. His Ingram line comes from Aberdeen, Scotland;
his Gunn line is from Glasgow, Scotland and Belfast, Ireland.

Today Kathy is working diligently on the early records of York County, Virginia - currently beginning work on her third volume ofWills, Deeds and Inventories. Her other genealogical interests lie in a collaborative project with her cousin Francis Faunt in which they are tracing their DNA. His Y-DNA matches a Fant who descends from the same Norman/Irish family which includes Sir Walter Faunt (L'Enfant), Irish knight in Edward the first's household, justiciar & "fidelis of Ireland."
