Sorry, no adt'l info. on her in my notes.These are Philip Turner's direct ancestors. Thomas and Jane had 11 known children. Thomas was s/o Henry Maxwell m. Agness Carson; and Thomas was the brother to my direct ancestor Robert Maxwell (1768-1847) m. Mary Polly Edie. Robert and Thomas first came to the area as Indian Scouts in 1793, and were buying land in Short Creek by 1800. Philip Turner has reported records of Thomas and Robert as members of the Associate Presbyterian Church in Cadiz by 12/1810. Prior to that I believe they attended the Ridge Church. And others in that family continued to attend Ridge.
