Walter and Catherine also had Agnes and Anne, according to the Turnbull file at the Historical society. In that file, there is speculation that Walter's parents were William and Jane Douglas Turnbull and he MAY have had brothers John (my line) Walter and George. Certainly they all lived near each other and their lives and fortunes intertwined somewhat. John married Agnes McCoul and Margaret Renwick, the second possibly bigamy or following a divorce. He had a total of 7 children. William either was [or was the son of] a gardener to the Royal family and married Harriet N. Bullman. They had a son Robert who had 4 children. George married Jane Kennedy and had 6 children. I have some further info on them all. I would suggest you write to the Schenectady County Historical Society and ask them to copy the Turnbull file for you. I believe Montgomery County also has quite a lot and the Town of Princetown Historian, Irma Mastrean has a good bit also. Also try the Duanesburg ! Historical Society. I think I have their addresses buried somewhere and I would be happy to send them. ----- Original Message ----- From: J.

Baptism listed in "County of Schenectady, NY, Presbyterian Church, Births, Marriages, Deaths. 1796-parents listed as Walter and Katherine Turnbull. Turnbull family bible, printed in Edenburgh, 1795, lists names of Walter Turnbull, H. ..... Young, dates of their birth, marriage > only year is legible, and the names and dates of birth for children, son-in-law, and grandchildren.
