Sarah Yes I have done the DNA test and out of all of the Turners that have had their DNA run I was the only one in My line. It took almost a year but I now have 2 matches. All three of us have traced our Turner back to Joseph Turner Sr. B abt. 1750 in VA. and died Nov.1800 in KY. I have been in contact with several other Turners that may be in my line and NOT A ONE can get past Joseph, Sr. A few others say they have but when I check into it their information is wrong. I paid a professional to check just Joseph Sr. And he could not find his Father. Right now I have him listed as being found in the Cabage patch with the easter bunny and Santa Clause.
