But the Quicks and Turners are connected, both families moved to Fayette County GA from SC, Drucilla, a daughter of Moses Turner and his Unknown wife, married Eli Quick in Fayette County, GA. Both were born in SC according to GA census records. The 1840 census of Fayette County, GA, reflects: Moses Turner, age 50-60, Wife, age 50-60, 2 sons, ages 15-20, 1 daughter age 10-15, one son age 5-10. NOTE: Moses' first wife is apparently the one listed above in the 50-60 age range. His second wife, widow Martha Moses, was listed as only 39 years old in the 1860 census 20 years later. 1850 Fayette Co., GA 29th District 10-9-1850 #1088 Turner, Moses 63 M SC Farming " Martha 38 F GA " Turner Moses 12 M GA " Jani (Jane?) 10 F GA " Francis M 5 M GA " Caroline J 3 F GA {Age 63 for Moses above places his year of birth abt 1887} 1860 Fayette Co., GA Fayetteville 1 June #5 Turner, Moses T 75 M SC Martha 39 F GA Moses, Sarah Jane 16 F GA (Martha's child from 1st marriage) " Francis M 14 (15?)

In a will listing Henson Turner as Executor of the Estate, it is recorded that Moses T. C. Turner came from South Carolina with his family. No specific location in South Carolina was given. Fayette County Genealogy Book "1821- 1971" reflects some information on the Turners. The will of Moses T. Turner is recorded in Fayette County Probate Court, pages 359-360. The will was executed on May 6, 1865, probated February 7, 1867. The will names sons, Moses and Henson, son-in-law Eli Quick, and mentions other children, but does not name them. The executor was Henson Turner, Moses T. Turner's, son. On page 586 of the above referenced book the following information appears: Henson Turner, executor of the estate of Moses Turner, deeded on December 15, 1880 two (2) acres in Land Lot 11 of the 5th District to New Hope Methodist Episcopal Church and the deed states: "in consideration of his desire to promote the welfare of the Church and in the dissemination of religious truth, as well as in consider- ation of $10.00 is paid in hand....." ____________________ Drucilla, daughter of Moses T. C. Turner married Eli Quick, June 14, 1828, in Fayette County, GA. The Turners and Quicks came from SC according to GA census records. It is thought they came to GA from Marlsboro CO, SC. See the following items below found on p. 128, "Marlboro County, South Carolina Minutes of the County Court 1785-1799 and Minutes of the Court of Ordinary 1791-1821" by Brent Holcomb, Southern Historical Press (1981).
