  Notes	In the book "A Pictorial History of Sabine County, Texas," Denton Kerr is pictured as a teacher at the Rosevine School circa 1925 through 1929. A fellow teacher was Bertha Fuller, step sister to his future wife, Alice Pointer. Joe S. Fuller, Alice's stepbrother appeared to be a student in the class. Joe was also in a carpentry shop class with Denton and his brother S.A. Kerr. His Texas Death Certificate, viewable online at FamilySearch.org, Texs Deaths, 1890-1976, shows that he was married at the time of his death, and that the informant was Mrs. Denton Kerr. This is apparently a second wife, as Edna Alice Pointer preceded him in deaht by three years. He was listed as a Physician, and a veteran serving during the World War II. His residence, at the time of his death, was 4730 Creekbend. Sharon Haynes emailed, in July 2013, that CHARLES Denton Kerr served in the Army 9 Nov 1942 to 23 April 1946; separated as a Major; served as Medical Officer General Surgery; last stationed SAD AAFPDC San Antonio, TX. He married MILDRED MARY MARQUES on 12 Feb 1975 in Alvin, Brazoria County, TX.
