Date: 97-07-05 15:44:08 EDT From: N4JED To: NCreed1 CC: HarrisSEM Well, with Sherry's post of compilation #139 I am back to my usual confusion of which John TURNER is the father of Ruth, Nancy T., and Elizabeth J. It was my understanding based on the research of several people in Patrick County - including work by Eunice iKrkman who is often found here - that the following is a correct placement of these children. Note, this is different from Sherry's placement. Please, anyone with records to back up either position, please let us know.

END ... =================== DAVID: I thought today would be a good day to retype the 1914 "In Memorium of My Grand Parents" by Capt. William Turner. Hopefully, this will help to clarify the concerns regarding the three daughters of William Turner and Jane (Hunter) Turner: Ruth, Nancy Tate, and Elizabeth Jane Turner. ====================== In June 1985, I transcribed "In Memoriam of My Grand Parents" by Captain William Turner, my great-great uncle. I have retyped the document and I'll be sharing that with you as well as a cover letter that I added to the transcript at that time. I think many of you will find this interesting. I would enjoy hearing your comments. I have copies of letters written by William to his brother John Burnett Turner, Jr. Anyone interested in reading them onLine? Nyla Stand by, folks, to see what Capt. William Turner had to say about some of the descendants of Rev. John and Nancy (Burnett) Turner. == Nyla =================== The end of this compilation.
