I ask this question several times a year but I still do not know who the father of Joseph Turner sr might be. I have had several wrong answers sent. Here is what I know about him, Joseph Turner sr was born ABT 1750 in VA. and died before November 1800 in Montgomery Co. KY. He was married at least twice, An unknown wife before 1775 and Sarah Parsons in 1789.He had the following children. Mary Jane Turner ----- b. 1774-1775 William Turner B.-- --- before 1775 Thomas Joseph Jr -- --b. 1776-1782 George W. Turner - -- b. 1791 Sudduth David Turner - b 1793 James W. Turner -----b.1795 Phoebe Turner ----------b.1798 I am about ready to admit that he must have been born in a cabbage patch. Donald
I found a James Turner b. 1700 in bedford Va. and Mary Admire on family search, do you think it might be Joseph's Father and Mother.

Donald, Have you tried Family Tree DNA? They do Y(male) DNA test for ancestry research. Results might not give you an exact ancestor, but very likely indicate an extended family. Their URL is below: http://www.familytreedna.com/ Another possibility is the Turner DNA project which works with Family Tree DNA. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~turnerdna/ Donald Turner <dturner8@hot.rr.com> wrote: I ask this question several times a year but I still do not know who the father of Joseph Turner sr might be.
