Anyone out there in rootsweb-land have a link to my g-grandmother? I found a record of Lillie N. Turner marrying Roy Denver Davis in Minturn, Lawrence, Arkansas in 1902. I believe Lillian was born 22 Mar 1887, but I don't have anything to prove it, and I believe her parents were Edward Turner and Cindy (Lucinda?) Farmer, but again, I don't have any proof yet. If anyone has any information on my Turner clan, I'd love to hear about it... -=Allan Davis=- adavis@mail.sunhealth.org

Bruce Turner was born in the late 1930's and Frank was also born about that time. Frank was the youngest of all the children. Bruce and his wife got married in the mid to late 1950's. I believe that Bruce and his wife were married a couple of years before there child Bruce Jr. was born. Bruce Sr.'s wife mentioned going to TN and staying with her mother-in-law. She said the sun came up later at their house because it was down in a 'hollow'! As best I can figure, the parents to all the children I mentioned before were born just before the turn of the century maybe just after. Mrs. Turner met the mother of the children but she died before Bruce Jr. could ever meet her. Bruce Jr. was born in 1957. --part0_921535693_boundary--

I hope you all enjoy them. The following is a transcription of two letters written by Lucinda Wesley Turner to her mother Sarah Hammond Wesley which mention her husband Elisha's father, Edward going to Henry county GA to live. When copies of these letters surfaced at the Archives, it was confirming evidence that the Edward Turner in Henry Co. in the 1830 GA Census was likely the same Edward Turner that was in the Pike/Meriwether Co. area of Ga later and the father of Elisha Turner and his brother James C. Turner, my ancestor. There is only one Edward Turner in the Census data in GA during those time periods. I have added a bit of punctuation for clerity, but have not altered the spelling as I received it. The nineteenth century southern terms take a bit of getting used to such as "the connectian" means "the extended family". And: Geo=Georgia; Up co=Upson county; no=know; sea=see; tolebul well =tolerably or fairly well; are=any; fetch=to take and bring back. I'll leave many others for yu to decipher. It is good practice. Elisha's family was in Upson county GA at this time and Lucinda's Mother was in Newton county GA. Notice the dates. -------------------------------------------- Geo Up co March the 4 1864 Dear mother and brother I take the opitunity of riten you a few lines to let you no that we are all well at this time and doing tolebul well and I do hope when you git this leter it ma find all of the connectian well and doing well.

Lusinda Turner Nancy Grogan >> I loved reading the letters an being from Georgia and just being a mix of southern in one package I understood her purty good. They were so sad an show us just how hard it was to keep up with their families. I am still searching for my Elizabeth Jane Turner dates unknown married to James Byrd Partin he was born about 1870 in Bell County, Kentucky. I was told James was a lot older than Elizabeth Jane and she was at least his 3rd wife. She died young because he took the 3 girls to McMinn Co., Tennessee and left them there and he went back to Pineville, Bell Co, Ky and died in 1922. She had 3 girls one was my Great Grandmother Margaret Bell Partin born Oct 4, 1893 in Pineville, Kentucky. She married George Washington Manery and had 9 children all born in McMinn Co., Tennessee, Margaret died in 1955 after complications from being hit by a truck. Any help would be appreciated.

This is all the information I have on our line. The childrens names: Henry, Claude, Pless, Bruce, Frank, Ruth, Nina, Ches (Chess or Chester?). They were from the Morristown, TN area. Henry later lived somewhere in NC and owned a container factory. He and his wife had 2 boys and a girl we think. Ches lived in Ohio and had one daughter. Bruce joined the service and had one son, Frank lives in Ga and married Bruce's wifes sister. They had about 3 or 4 children. Ruth also lives/lived in Ga. The only living Turner from that generation is Frank and maybe Ruth. Any information on this clan would be appriciated. Thank you in advance, Mitzi M. Turner

I am searching for Frank Turner. He was married to Mary Elizabeth (Lizzy) Watts in the 1890's and early 1900's. In 1896, their son, Benjamin James Arthur Turner was born to them. Frank either died or they separated, leaving my grandfather, Ben and his three sisters orphans. Lizzy was married two or three times after Frank. She was located in Cairo, IL, married to a Kendall and had twin girls. (She was either too old to remember, or just wouldn't tell my grandfather about his dad, where he was buried or anything). So, all we know of my grandfather's dad is the name Frank. My grandfather was born in Hickman County, KY, as was Lizzy. I don't know where Frank came from or who his family was. If any of you have any information that might connect, I am willing to follow up on ANY AND ALL leads! Thank you very much, Joyce
