One of the censuses showed her middle initial as "J" but that may not be right. William Garrison's sister Francis married James Turner and he is probably a brother of Mary Ann but because William & Mary Ann married before the 1850 census we don't have the Turners together in a census as proof. Their mother appears to be Jemima, born 1801-1805 in North or South Carolina. 1850 Stewart Co., TN Jemimah Turner 52 SC Sarah 28 TN James 25 TN Martha 21 TN Henry 16 TN William & Francis' parents along with his two uncles William Garrison & John Garrison were also in Stewart County Tennessee. Allen & Francis moved to Arkansas, John died in Stewart County unmarried, and William & his family stayed in Stewart County. I think Mary Ann Turner may have been a member of Jemimah's family and she and William may have married in Tennessee then moved to Arkansas. 1860 Delaware Twp., Yell Co., AR page 1016 Jemimah 59 NC Martha J. 23 TN 1860 Delaware Twp., Yell Co., AR page 1015 same page as the households of her brothers & parents, Jemima Turner on adjoining page James Turner 34 AL occupation waggoner Francis 22 TN Jno Franklin 7 AR William 5 AR Jefferson 2 AR Henry Turner 24 TN laborer 1870 Delaware Twp., Yell Co., AR page 552 William H. 44 TN Mary A. 41 TN Frances J. 20 AR Allen S. 17 AR Susan A. 15 AR Samuel J. 11 AR Robert T. 8 AR William G. 6 AR Columbus R. 1 AR Turner, Jemima 65 SC Turner Martha J. 32 TN Turner, Harry S. 30 TN 1870 census Yell Co.

There are several Turners who appear in Stewart TN but I haven't found anything to indicate which, if any, was married to Jemima.
