Thanks to all for the positive feedback off-list about recent postings here on WILLIAM & JOSEPH TURNER'S Buckingham County, VA roots. When I first discovered this about 12 years ago, there were fewer resources available and less interest then than now. Now there seems to be far more interest in these Monroe County TURNER families, and many competent and determined researchers out there. The hardest part may yet lie ahead: Tracing and sorting out NICHOLAS TURNER'S line in VA and beyond. The many apparent branches of VA TURNERS probably do share some common ancestors. Early paper trails in VA are sometimes hard to find, though, and DNA analysis may ultimately prove helpful. If anyone is interested in helping out with a DNA analysis, email me off-list, please, and we can discuss it further. Thanks, Charles R.
