In response to Becky's statement that she still couldn't find the
compilation to which I submitted my transcriptions from the Adam Turner
Bible, I am attaching a copy of my original posting to the compilations. If
you have trouble reading it, please let me know.
My family' history, both verbal and some recorded, dating back many
generations, indicate Adam's father, Francis was Irish, and so was Adam.
The Bible was printed in Edinburgh, Scotland.

I have copies of all the surviving Caroline County Order books. These do
not mention Shadrack at all, nor do the tax records of King and Queen
County. There is no evidence that he belongs to the Turners mentioned in
these books. Some individuals have assumed he belongs. I wouldn't make
that statement; however, I see no reason not to record the fact that he is
not listed but include the possibility that because he was older, he was not
in Caroline County at the time. This might give some researcher, someday,
something to go on to try to find verifiable evidence.
I have not listed James and Mary as Shadracks parents in my family charts.
