Subject: Looking for additional families
Nyla and group.
Like several of you, my family from Patrick and Henry counties married into
the early families of Franklin County. I just recently found out that one of
my great aunts has been collecting in on the Franklin County side for over 20
years.
As a result of her work, I am adding over 400 new listings going back to the
early 1700's. I have just started working with this data; but, if any of you
have tie- ins to the following list of names, I would be glad to share info
as I get it (my great aunt has 4 file cabinet drawers full of research, this
could take a while).
Primary surnames are SINK, BOWMAN, LAYMAN, DILLON, PLYBON, and DIVERS.

Nyla,
Thanks for the listing of the Ingrams you posted. It closed some connections
I was missing.. What other goodies are you holding back????
A couple comments after working through the list.
Nancy VIA, daughter of James VIA and Mary J. DEHART. Please check her birth
date. You have 1837 listed but have her placed where 1847 would make sense.
Malinda Ingram married to Josaih Hunter TURNER, Jr......I take it this is his
second marriage as I have him married to a Sarah TURNER on 4 Dec 1843 or am I
in error here.
Also, with reference to all the people you have listed born in Raleigh
Co.....West Virginia was not formed until 1863....these people should be
listed as born in Virginia.
[DAVID, YOU'RE CORRECT ABOUT THAT. THE BIRTHDAY FOR WEST VIRGINIA IS 20
JUNE 1863. BY THE WAY, THAT'S MY HOME COUNTY AND I SHOULD HAVE HAD THE
STATE AS VIRGINIA.--Nyla]
By the way, do you have any Baumgardner names in any of your VA/WV listings?
I keep waiting for the 2 sides of my family to loop somewhere; either Bedford
County or Cabell and Raleigh Co. seem the most likely places.
[I KNOW THE NAME BAUMGARDNER. LET ME SEE IF WHAT I CAN FIND. LOTS OF
FAMILIES FROM HENRY, FLOYD, AND PATRICK CAME TO RALEIGH COUNTY.--Nyla]
Thanks for your efforts.

Subject: Patrick-Henry Allied Families
Nyla and the group,
I attended the latest Patrick-Henry Allied Families reunion June 16th along
with about 200 other members of the founding families of Patrick and Henry
Counties. I believe this was the 45th annual gathering. It is held each
father's day at the Allied family shelter at Fairystone State Park in Patrick
Co. Virginia (shame on any relative that does not know the legend of the
fairystones).
This year one of my great aunts - Lounelle Pedigo Gearing was the honoree
representing the PEDIGO line at the gathering. The event is a picnic
get-together with very little family history discussions other than the
outline produced for the honoree. However, there is info to be had and
relatives to be met (including some I had not seen in 20+ years).
I spent some time with O.E. Pilson, whom I believe several of you have been
in touch with in the past. It is hard to believe he is in his upper 80's.
We discussed the info we both had and I believe everything he has collected
over the years is included in the master list Nyla has put together.
For those who have asked, the families making up the Allied families are:
ANDERSON, BURNETT, CORN, HATCHER, HOUCHINS, JAMISON, PEDIGO, PENDLETON,
PILSON, PRICE, ROSS, STOVALL, TURNER, VIA and WOOD.

Subject: Another TURNER letter
(Here is letter number 5. For those new to our group, my
grandmother saved several TURNER letters from the 1800's
that she passed down to me. Whenever she got them out she
was so proud of the fact that her ancestors could write. I have
typed out the letters in the same style and line length as the
originals for other TURNER searchers to enjoy. The previous
four letters are archived at Chris Gaunt's web page.
Your comments are appreciated. The following letter is from
Benjamin TURNER and his wife Lucinda ? to his brother
Shadrack TURNER and sister Clementine (note spelling)
Turner CAHILL. This is the only source and reference I
have seen to Benjamin's family. Any help expanding this
line would be appreciated. Contact me at n4jed@aol.com )
(This 9-1/2" by 15" piece of paper was folded to mail size and
sealed with red wax. It was addressed)
Mr Shadrach Turner

(Above the address in another handwriting is)
Mud Camp Ky Augt 15th

Subject: Re: Another TURNER letter
Kathe,
I failed to mention with the letter but I believe that William STONE -
refered to in the letter is the husband of Mary Ann TURNER...another of
Benjamin's sisters. This makes sense in the context of the letter.
Apparently this is where many of the family moved around the end of the
1700's.
More later,
David

Subject: Re: Joining the Turner mystery
After reading all of the postings I am hoping that someone may be able
to help me further my research. I am trying to locate the parents or
siblings of George H. TURNER. He was born in January 1851 and in 1856
travled from Ballard, Kentucky to Parker County, Texas. Traveling with him
was William R.TURNER, born December 08, 1836 in Christian, Kentucky.
They arrived in Parker County on December 14, 1856. Georges tree is
as follows: George H. TURNER b: January 1851
married Lydia Jane PHELPS b: January 1856
children John Wood TURNER b: August 27, 1884 d:January 1, 1961
married Harriet VICK b.?
children Robert Lee TURNER b. June 21, 1911 d. November 25 1970
married Roberta FRANKLIN b. Feb 12, 1916
I would appriciate any help in getting past my great great grandfather
George TURNER, also if there is any kinship with William. Family
stories dictate that the TURNERS had come from Scotland.
Thank you for your patience.

Dear Nyla,
Please add me to your mailing list. While I don't seem to connect with the
eastern Turners, several of the leads in Chris Gaunt's compilations look
intriguing. Verbal history links my TURNER line to John TURNER (b. Ireland?)
and Sarah TALEE (sp?) who were supposedly married in New Orleans. The family
moved at some point to Roane Co., TN, with my line later moving to Wright
Co., MO. Here's what I have from the TURNER Bible:
Children of John and Sarah TURNER:
Annie.
James, b. 11 Nov 1811, d. 15 Mar 1855, m. Eliza REED (?), Roane Co. 1838.
Sterling (Starling?) T., b. 11 Dec 1813, m. Esther Ervine, Roane Co. 1833.
Charles M., b. 18 Nov. 1815
John (Jack), b. 25 May 1818, d. 1906, Wright Co., MO, m1 Rebecca McMullin,
Roane Co, 1839--my line, m2 Elizabeth WHITE 1862.
Fisher, b. 20 Jan 1820.
Rebecca, b. 10 June 1822.
Andrew, b. 22 May 1823.
William P., b. 10 Sept 1824.
Sarah, b. 15 Feb 1826.
Martha and Mary, b. 20 Feb 1831.
Joseph D., b. 25 Feb 1832.
Fannie, b. 18 June 1833.
Thanks!
