Hi,

I have been unable to trace and connect my Christopher Columbus Turner
directly.  I am now considering a circular route.
I am wondering if any Packwood researcher has any information on the
Huff family mentioned in digest 276.
Maybe I can find Christopher this way.

Thank you, 
kim

Hi, Nyla:

This is a long-shot but I thought I'd ask.  I visited your website after
seeing your message to the Via Website.  I have two questions that maybe you
can answer:

1. Do you have an ancestor named James Turner who married a lady named Wood?
If so, what was her name?  These folks had a relationship with the Via/Viers
family in Patrick and Greenbrier Counties.


2.  I noticed on your Web Page reference to William Turner who married Jane
Hunter, daughter of William Hunter.  Have you in your research ever come
across a William Hunter Cavendish who first appeared in Greenbrier Co. WVA in
1769?  He is an ancestor of mine that I can't find origins for.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Vince Brant

Hi, James,

Here's what I know about my William - he had a son named Thomas, born 1794
probably in or near Harper's Ferry, WV.  Possibly had another son named James,
born 1796.  William then headed out toward Kentucky, never to be heard from
again - supposedly killed by Indians.  We know nothing at all of his wife, or
what became of her.  Our Thomas was raised by a Quaker family by the name of
Beason, married Hannah Carson, daughter of James Beatty Carson, in Harper's
Ferry.  Thomas and Hannah eventually moved to Butler County, KY, where they
raised a large family.

We have heard that William was kicked out of England at a young age for
preaching, and came to America, where he worked off the cost of his passage
for seven years.  We've also heard that he was born in Maryland.  So, our
brick wall is William.  Surely do wich I had more to share with you, but
that's it.  See any similarities????

Anita

The James Turner I have married a Sarah Jane Wood and his middle name
was Robert. This is as far back as I have James. He was born in 1846 in
Patrick County, Virginia.

Dear Mailing list,

I've watched as the mention of James Turner has come up on the mailing list more than once. I also
have a James Turner in my ancestry and I thought this would be a good time to post my home page.

I am looking for one of my ancestors, believed to be a descendent of Exonia
Packwood and Valentine Gearhart.  Her name is Exonia Alicia Gearhart, b.
1837 in IL, m. John W. Gaunt, lived in Dallas County, Missouri, and died in
1885.

Children of John William Gaunt and Exonia Alicia Gearhart are:

Sarah G. Gaunt
John Alexander Gaunt
Thomas Beam Gaunt
Francis Marion Gaunt
Mary Ellen Gaunt
Henry Foster Gaunt
Amanda Ruth Gaunt
Charles Dixon Gaunt

Does anyone have information on any of the Gearhart line that would lead me
to Exonia Gearhart?

Thank you.

Sarah Gaunt Thompson
