For those who may be looking for me, I have returned to my home in the
Hi-Desert. My address is 9375 Bella Vista Rd, Apple Valley, Ca 92308. Phone
& fax: 760-247-3790. I had a 7 week vacation in Santa Maria, Ca with 75
degrees daily and am totally spoiled. It has to be pretty cool where you
are living Nyla.

June,
Welcome home. The weather has been perfect here.

Nyla, I really enjoy the compilations you have posted. In fact, I have
printed all 183 of
them and have them filed away. In spite of the 183 postings I have yet to
make a
connection to my Turners. Every Turner I need to find have been mentioned
one time or another in your compilations, but not my Turners.
Here is the help I need: Parents of John H.Turner b. SC 1827, wife
Almetter (?) b. 1827, both in SC according to the US Census.
Children: John Elliot Turner b. 1854-1927, SC. Wife, Sophia Rebecca Thompson,
b.
1854-1922, Wilkes County, Georgia. These are my Great Grand parents.
John Elliot's siblings are: Mary L. b. 1856, Charles L. b. 1858, Emma b.
1862, William b. 1864. I have found John H Turner in the 1860 and 1870 US
Census report in Barnwell, SC and Edgefield, SC. John Elliot settled in
Warren County, GA. and then in Emanuel County, GA. where they raised their
children and are buried.
Thanks to anyone that can provide a break for me on John H. and his other
children. I have been stuck since 1983.
Sincerely, Johnny Arthur Turner

Dear Sherry,
Nyla forwarded you letter to me. Drucilla Philpott Turner is my great, great
grandmother (James Overton is my great grandfather). According to my
records, her parents were Samuel Philpott b. abt 1761, d abt 1836 and Mary
Hannah. They were married Jan 1785. I have more of my records at work so I
don't know if I have more than that on them or not. That's all that I have
here, I hope that helps you. I probably got that information from Mr. Pilson
of Virginia - I met him through Nyla. Nyla and Mr. O. E. Pilson are both
3rd cousins that I have just met since I've been on line a year or so. What
is your interest
in Drucilla? Are we related?
I'll look forward to hearing from you soon,

Hi Nyla
Just added an article taken from the Oklahoma City Oil Journal, 1931 to
my Oklahoma Obits & Tidbits page. The article is about Sam, Joe, Roe,
and Samuel Burk Burnett. Thought some of the Burnett researchers might
find it interesting reading, I know I did.

Thanks Nyla, I needed that, a smile is always good and a ray of sunshine
you just passed onto me. I know I saw several names which frequently occur
in
my family, i.e. Elisha, William, Jesse, Louis, (my father) Joseph, Lydia,
Lucinda,,
Clorinda/Clocinda, but the Elisha, William, Joseph, Lydia, Jesse came down
through the line that my cousin tracked and information I have available.
Thanks
for the note (what a flake!) June (Turner Kalipolites)

If all of the above are Turners I only have one of these: not sure when these
people lived and where but here goes. From my JORDAN line.
Lucinda Turner m. (1 Feb. 1827) JOHN JORDAN (1798-1868) John was the son of
ARCHER JORDAN of Williamson County, Tenn. b. 29 Aug 1770 and first wife
MARGARET WALKER. They had six children: William Webb Jordan, John Henry
Jordan, Josiah Turner Jordan, Sallie M. Jordan, A. Jordan and Clement N.
Jordan (named after John Jordan's brother, my gggrandfather, Clement Charles
Jordan.)
If you think she's yours, I have birthdates on the children...mostly just the
year.
Other Turners in my database: BATHSHEBA HELLAND TURNER (could she be
Lucinda's sister?)who m. GARNER M. JORDAN, a brother of CLEMENT CHARLES
JORDAN and the JOHN JORDAN above.
..............................................................................
.............
JOHN TURNER a descendant of Shadrack Turner, who married NANCY BURNETT,
dau of JOHN BURNETT and ELIZABETH TATE.
JANE TURNER who married JEREMIAH BURNETT III (no dates just lineage)
I know that's not much, and I don't have much on these lines, but sometimes
it helps to have anything at all.
Hope you can use it,
Caroline Burnett Cook

I am looking for information about my Turner ancestors in Virginia
and Kentucky. I am already a member of the Network and have entered my
genealogy below for inclusion in the Turner Family Network. The 9th
generation is most likely. The 8th generation is probable. The 7th
generation is reasonably sure. The 6th to the 1st are proven:

5. Lewis Finch 6. Willie Lee 7. Leonard Harris 8. Albert Phelan Jr.
2 and 1- The first and second generations were all born in Mississippi.
The evidence found so far indicates that John Turner Jr and
Allen McDonald led their families from Bowling Green, Warren County,
Kentucky to Marion County, Alabama in 1827. Allen McDonald, Elijah
Turner, Thomas Turner, and Lorenzo Dow Turner were all living near each
other in Marion County, Alabama according to the 1830 census. Thomas and
Lorenzo Dow Turner moved west into Itawamba County, Mississippi in 1838.
Elijah Turner died about that time, probably in Marion County. His
widow, Unity S.(McDonald) Turner, and her five youngest children were
recorded on the 1850 census for Monroe County, Mississippi. Her oldest
son, my ancestor, William Turner, was living nearby.
I would be grateful for any information anyone might have about
9-William Turner, 8-John Turner, or 7-John Turner Jr., or any other
information that might indicate the correct father of Elijah, Thomas, and
Lorenzo Dow Turner.
