Have been enjoying the roll-call ! I suppose I'm late for it. Thanks to this list I have found the parents of my Mary Turner (b.1799, d.after 1860) who are Stephen Turner & Mary/Molly Roun(d)tree. Now I am trying to sort out the many Turners in Bedford county, VA, where Stephen appears on the tax rolls shortly after his marriage to Mary Roun(d)tree (dau.of Dudley Roun(d)tree) in 1782 (found the marriage record !!!) in Bedford Co. The TURNERs on the tax lists include Lewis, Admiah (Admire?), James Sr., James Jr., James, Elijah, John, & possibly an Isaiah. All these could be suspected of being Stephen"s father. Does anyone have info on any of these men? I've seen some stuff on Admire (did the one who died in 1818 have a son Stephen? or a grandson Stephen?) & a mention of an Elijah (son or gndson Steph.?) & a James nearby. I intend to comb the county records eventually, but some Clues about where to look would Sure Help. One database I saw had Stephen hooked up to a William who was a son of Shadrach but I'm not sure how to verify that. Another database had Terisha as Stephen's father. Wills, what I need are wills. Any suggestions, hints, pointers, documents gratefully accepted!! Judy in Pasadena still "Lost in the Past"
