My cousin's Birmingham area TURNER ggmother was Sarah E., b. 1845, VA, d/o Robert TURNER and Elizabeth Carson MCGUFFIN TURNER. That line goes back to Shadrack. I have not checked to see if any of Sarah's siblings came to AL also - might be worth looking into - http://awt.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=DESC&db=eddievaden&id=I6805 Carol

Judy, no my Turner is a gg-grandfather and I am just starting his search. I will keep your info and may be we connect up somehow. I go to the Birmingham library sometimes do you want me to look for your Turners? Mary

You might want to check out the Turner DNA website, all Turner's from Georgia are not related to Meshack or descended from him. If y'all have a male Turner in your line that would do a DNA test you could eliminate Turner's that are unrelated. See http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~turnerdna/ or go to www.familytreedna.com for DNA testing information. Judy

I have Alabama Turner's who migrated from Picken's County, GA. My g-grandfather, Bailey Williams (Williams Bailey on one Census) migrated to Jackson County, Al. He's buried at Macedonia Cemetery, Jackson County, Al. Bailey's father, Esley Turner, was on the 1840 Greenville District, SC census with a Berry Turner as well as Armstred, Felix, Johnathan, Jonathan, Joseph, Samuel and William Turner. Has any of your male Turner's had a DNA test? Judy Harper

Thank you so much for the information. At least I know where to start looking for Barney S Turners parentage. thanks again, Mary

I've been told that the Turners in Georgia are all descended from Meshack Turner who came there from Virginia in the late 1700s. He was the brother of Shadrack and Abednego Turner out of Caroline Co., VA. There was a book at the Library of Congress that gave several generations of his descendents. It may be also at the DAR Library. Jeanette O'Boyle

My Turner's go back to James Turner 1799 from Buckingham, Virginia. I know he had an older brother and sister, but have no names. Also his father died around 1806. James moved his family to Tennessee and then to Illinois. One of his sons was Lorenzo. Here are some facts that I know. 1. The name of James Barry shows up in my family frequently. 2. Some of the family have a genetic defeat that causes webbed feet or hands. Does any of this fit your Turner family? Lana Selby

We have a Turner/Crenshaw possible connection. Our Samuel Turner was born about 1812 SC, arrived in TX in 1837, lived in Jasper Co, TX and Trinity Co, TX. He died after 1860 census but before 1870 as far as we know. One of his sons, William Cecil Turner, was on the 1880 census living with a Crenshaw family and have wondered if they were relatives.

She is said to be the daughter of John McClanahan and Mary Robinson. She came to the area in late 1839 or early 1840 with a group led by her oldest son, Esli/Esly Hunt (enumerated in 1850 in Winston Co., MS). Her children were: Julia Ann b. 1815 (m. Hendricks); Esly b. 1820; Orpha b. 1824 (m. Buckner); Rosa b 1827 (m. Moss); Pilate b. 1828; John b. 1830; George b. 1833; Keziah b. 1835. I knew from estate records in Greenville Co. that she had gone to MS to be "near her family." At first I thought this couldn't be her married to this younger Franklin Turner and thought perhaps the census taker had just failed to list her as Hunt and instead had her listed as Turner. But, after working on this group some more, I finally decided that in fact she had married this younger Franklin Turner. I am guessing that this Franklin Turner is probably the son of Thomas F. Turner and Elizabeth here but again, I'm speculating on that connection.

This church was just over the border to the west of Greenville Co., SC and many of these families lived on both sides of the Saluda River which separated the two counties. From those records, it appeared that Thomas Turner's wife was named Elizabeth because there were records of admissions and dismissals at the same time. There was also something in the records about their asking for letters of dismissal about 1830. There are also notes in the minutes about a dispute between Lacy Hunt and Thomas Turner and it sounded like Lacy Hunt was a member of a church in Greenville County while Thomas Turner was a member of the Peters Creek Church. They had asked some brethren from the two churches to sit down with the men to see if they could settle the issue. There was a long period of the church minutes that were were no mention of the Turners and then suddenly in 1850 it stated "Thomas Turner who had left about 20 years earlier was back." I don't know if this is the same Thomas who asked for letters of dismissal in 1830 or not. If so, did he leave poor Bettie in MS and come back? They could be two different Thomas Turners in the minutes. But, for sure, these Hunts that the Turners that Henderson seems to be near in 1850 are from Greenville Co., SC and the Turners may be those from the Pickens/Greenville area.

My Turner's ancestors were believed to be Susannah Rogers born 1796, Zepaniah Rogers Jr. born 1773, & Zepaniah Rogers born in 1746 all died in Franklin Co., Ohio ?, 1870, & 1823.

What was David Turner's mother's maiden name ? Also the name of her father and grandfather? Where did they move to in Ohio ?

I have a David Turner born in NJ in 1805 then he is packed up and moved to Ohio with his Mother, her father and Grandfather. Have no idea about any of the Turners but the others are Rogers from Vermont! Thanks, Charles Olsen

My brick wall is Isaac TURNER b May 1788 Paris, FR came to US c 1792 d 1867 Wayne Co., PA. The family name was de la TOURNEUR (var. sp.). The only information I have on him is he enlisted in the War/1812 in Mamaroneck, Westchester Co., NY. He then disappears until he 'arrives' in Wayne Co. in 1848 when he married Nancy KELL(E)Y. They had 8 children - married into the Depew and Bird families. In a newspaper interview with one of his daughters, she gave the information re her father's date and place of birth and when he came to US. I have no info at all on Isaac's parentage or siblings. Family lore says he 'came from the West' to PA and was married at least once before he married Nancy. I believe he had a son John who lived next door to Isaac/Nancy in the 1850 census in Wayne Co., PA. The name MILTON was given to several sons in those early years. The family was also prone to TWINS. Anyone missing a grandfather Isaac??? Diane * * * * * * ~ ~ ~ ~ Please check our Home Page ~ ~ ~ ~ * * * * * * http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/a/n/d/Sharon-D-Andreasen/
