    2. Mary, There were some Warrens who went to Ill., however, not till around 1860, there are some who went to KY early on and several who went to Ms early on...I have followed many of the Warrens of Lincoln CO, lots went to Tx in the later 1800's.. I do not have any Turneys who married into the Warrens...I do have an English..Sarah Higgonbothom English m. Henry J.M. Warren somewhere right before 1880...Henry was born in Lincoln Co Tn and in Ark by 1860, and on to Tx by 1880...not much more info on them, other than Henry's family.. What Warrens do you have, if any? Cindy

    3. Maria Warren married 10 June 1857 Morgan Co Illinois to William Turney (born 1832 Illinois) who was son of a John Turney of TN who died in 1840s in Galena Illinois. This Maria Warren and William Turney built a mansion in Springfield, Illinois - I have info on it if you are interested, he was a lawyer and at court with Lincoln....etc. then James Turney of TN, about 1820 moved to Illinois where he was an attorney, later Attorney General of Illinois, etc....1851 to Tyler, Texas. One of his daughters married a Lindsey English (think they were from KY) . This Lindsey English born ca 1840 - married Arabella Turney in Illinois and one of their sons was a Warren English....another was a Turney English. So I thought perhaps there was a Warren connection there. I noticed ca 1840s some Warrens in Wilson Co TN - there were Turneys there. This is all the same Turney family, from 4 Turney brothers who moved out of VA - 2 in 1774 to TN, 2 in 1787 to KY....and got mixed up in Illinois, Texas, Arkansas..... anyway, James Turney's first wife he married about 1810 in Tn was named Sarah. We wondered if she might have been a Warren. War of 1812 James was in Overton Co TN, his father had land there as well as several other places since he was a surveyor. Just a shot in the dark.

    3. You are from my branch of the Turneys, if you send me a snail mail address, I will mail you some family sheets. I will tell you this, you are getting your Josephs mixed up. The Joseph and Peter Gid you are talking about were nephews of your Joseph. Joseph Turney was born 1824 Smith Co TN s/o Peter and Hannah Turney....Joseph was in Civil War and captured, I will send you a statement he gave at time of capture. He was married to Elvira Rogers born 1835 TN d/o William and Rachel Rogers. Joseph had 5 children I list: 1. William Daniel Turney born 1853 2. Russel G Turney born 1856 3. Mary E. Turney born 1858 - must have died young 4. John Wesley Turney (your line) born December 1864 VBC AR, married 08 march 1885 to Polly J. Wade 5. Mary H Turney born 05 Arp 1872, married William Harkins, died 01 Jan 1903 and burried in Yell Co AR. Your line goes like this: Johan Peter Turney (bp 1710/11 Switzerland, arrived 1741 Philadelphia on ship FRIENDSHIP, in PA until at least 1749, 1752 living near present day Edinburg, Shenandoah Co VA, he sold his land in Va in 1787 and probably moved either to eastern TN or KY) 2. Henry Turney, died 1843 Dekalb Co TN, was in Eastern Tn 1774, 1780 was at Fort Nashborough which is Nashville today, about 1802 on Clear Forks in Smith (later Dekalb Co ) TN where he died in 1843. His wife was Elizabeth 3. Peter Turney born 1795 TN, died 1842 Van Buren Co AR. wife Hannah. He arrived in VBC AR spring of 1835. He was in War of 1812 and proven at Battle of New Orleans. 4.

I have the will of Henry Turney who died 1843 TN, and of Hannah Turney who died 1860s in VBC AR....also statement Joseph made when captured during Civil War. I am a double Turney from two of Peter and Hannah's sons - brothers to your Joseph. 1. Abe Turney born 1832 TN 2. Henry Turney born 1815 TN these were two brothers of Joseph - I can give you info on his other siblings. I understand there is a Rogers / Davis connection Mary Turney Miller ----- Original Message ----- From: <Cindykinard@aol.com> To: <TNLINCOL-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, June 13, 2005 7:06 PM Subject: Re: [LCT] Elk Cotton Mills > Mary, > There were some Warrens who went to Ill., however, not till around 1860, > there are some who went to KY early on and several who went to Ms early > on...I have followed many of the Warrens of Lincoln CO, lots went to Tx in the > later 1800's.. > I do not have any Turneys who married into the Warrens...I do have an > English..Sarah Higgonbothom English m.
