    3. With all the Turner list activity - are there any possibilities of tying in these ladies? I am descended from Hannah Turner (born about 1817 - Oldham Co. KY). I also am descended from (who I believe to be her sister) Sarah Turner (born ca 1820 in Henry Co. KY). County lines changed about that time period so I think it was the same county. Possible fathers were Edward or Thomas Turner who were the only men I found with the Turner name in the area. Hannah married John Anderson Williams (born about 1812 somewhere in Ohio). Sarah married (1st) Thomas Williams (born about 1815 - Ohio) who I believe to be Thomas' brother. The Williams-Turner marriages took place down the Ohio river in Perry Co. IN about 1835. Also on the same day as the marriage of Thomas & Sarah in Perry Co. was the marriage of Samuel Williams to Elizabeth Turner. I find no trace of Samuel, but by 1870 an Eliza Williams was again in Perry Co. IN and had children born in Ohio. The children's names followed naming patterns (such as Anderson) of my lines. I tried unsuccessfully to locate where Samuel and Eliza may have been in Ohio in 1860 to find a county of origin. By 1850, John and Hannah and Thomas and Sarah were back in the Jefferson Co. IN area across from the area where the Turner girls were born. They stayed in that general area the rest of their lives. I do not know where the Turner/Williams families met. Anyone have any information on possible Turner family connections? Thanks - Vicky
