    3. Trying to find any family for Isaac TURNER b 1788 Paris, FR came to US 1792 (re a news article by his daughter in 1937) d 1867 Wayne Co., PA. Isaac served in the War of 1812, enlisting in Westchester Co., NY. I have found an Isaac Turner in the census there, but from other info do not believe it is the same person. Cannot find Isaac's parentage or siblings. The family name was TOURNEUR - var. sp. Family lore says Isaac came from 'the middle West' and stopped in South Canaan and worked on Nancy Kelley's farm since she lived there alone. They married and had 8 children - Isaac was 34 years older than Nancy. Children were: Mathilda John Milton m Mahitable (Mattie) DEPEW Franklyn Varney m Carolena Augusta MEYER Mary Angeline; Rosilla Correll m ? HAUSER Elma Martha (twin) m Saul BIRD 2 other children died young 1850 census Salem Twp., Wayne Co. PA. shows John TURNER living next door to Isaac. John was born c 1810 NJ and among others, had a son named Milton. He also has 2 sets of twins. John must be a son of Isaac from a previous marriage. With all the children in this extended family, is anyone out there missing a grandpa??? Any help greatly appreciated - Diane * * * * * * ~ ~ ~ ~ Please check our Home Page ~ ~ ~ ~ * * * * * * http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/a/n/d/Sharon-D-Andreasen/
