Ok - here is my tidbit that everyone probably already knows. "Kersey" is a woven cloth produced hundreds of years ago in Kersey in England. So does anyone out there get excited at the sight of a loom? Since the first computers were based on looms (really - I love the PBS show "Connections"!) and we know about Thomas Kersey the mathematician - I'm curious to know if we have any present-day weavers or mathematicians.

I was hoping to find a way to make these my Kursey's but have not found any more information on them. Since you are looking for a Benjamin Franklin Kersey maybe this could help someone. 206th Regiment, PA Volunteers, Company B This company was recruited in Jefferson County in August and September 1864, for one year, and was mustered out June 26, 1865. Name State Served Enlist Date Enlist Rank Enlist Age Enlist Place Army Benjamin F Kursey Pennsylvania 06 September 1864 Priv union Dewald Kursey Pennsylvania 06 September 1864 Priv union Pennsylvania 206th Infantry Regiment 01 September 1864 26 June 1865 Infantry The 206th Regiment was involved in the siege of the Confederate capitol, Richmond, Virginia. His son and namesake, JOHN Alexander Patterson, born 1887, was the eighth and youngest son of his family. He told me that his father served in the Engineering Corps of the Infantry "building bridges." The Engineering Corps was considered very hazardous duty since these men were out in front of the regular army repairing bridges destroyed by the retreating Confederate Army or building bridges and roads for the advancing Union Army. The Engineers were constantly under attack by Confederate "sharpshooter" snipers on the other side of the river, whose job, of course, it was to prevent the completion of the bridges which were necessary to transport the Union Army infantry and artillery units across the rivers of Pennsylvania and Virginia. As I said I have not found them in a census or anything so maybe they left Pennsylvania. Donna

MacKersey is listed as a sept of Clan Fergusson by the Clan Fergusson Society of North America. A sept is basically a family with a different name than the local laird of the land. The sept families lives on that laird's land and under his rule. Septs were considered "family" of the Clan, as in this case, Clan Fergusson. Any MacKerseys out there might check with Clan Fergusson Society to see if they have a genealogical database that might contain clues to their family history. Go to www.tartans.com for information on Scottish clans. Barbara
