I am still looking for information on Permela (Permelia or Parmela) TURNER, and her daughters, Malissa, and Permela, all listed born in GA. The thing I found exceedingly odd today on my trip to the FHC library was the number of TURNER females who were living with other families. It seems many of them may have reached an age and been placed with other families as help. Most of them were in Fayette County, AL in 1860. This leads me to believe that these women may have been part of a family whose parents died and the family split up. Any ideas anyone!!! Felicia Turner is listed living with the Thompsons age 21 in Fayette County, 1860 Permela & Toliver living with another family in Georgia in 1840 when she was 12 and he was 6 in Jasper county. The other Turners I see listed in Fayette county were: Felicia John Mary (living with others) Permela (Living with Hisaw) Robert Willy William These were all in Fayette County. There are pages and pages in other counties of AL. Anyone interested in the microfilm#'s or census pages, let me know!

Lewis, Jr.) Sender: KYROOTS@LSV.UKY.EDU (Kentucky Genealogy & History Discussions) Reply-to: Ceteris@AOL.COM To: KYROOTS@LSV.UKY.EDU (Multiple recipients of list KYROOTS) I hope some kind hearted soul has that one missing piece of information that would complete my research!! I am trying to find a marriage record for my 4th great grandparents so I can extend the line. Some documents suggest they may have been cousins, and I have them connected to a Turner family, but if they are cousins don't know if it is his or her family. Knowing her maiden name would help me rule her out. They were Richard D. Turner and Margret "Polly" --?-- (could be Turner). They married between 1823 and 1833, most likely in Kentucky. Some family were in Pendleton County, but I don't show any record of them there, so I don't know where to focus. Thanks for any guidance. Norm ====================== Subj: Re: Marriage lookup...

Occasionally, I like to mention him in hopes that someone out there might be one of his descendants. Funny thing, I do know descendants of all his siblings, but none of Williams'. He moved from the Raleigh Co area. So, who knows where his descendants are today. I'll just keep looking 'til I find one. WHAT ELSE AM I HOLDING BACK? Well, I've got some copies of letters William wrote to his brother John. I plan to start typing them. The problem I have with the letters as well as the 1914 information is the fact that I can hardly read the copies. They are xerox copies of xeroxed copies which were typed on a manual typewriter, with strike-overs and all. Based on the 1914 information, it seems that I had difficulty distinguishing between 3's and 8's. I'd like to be accurate, but when we're dealing with information so old who can say whether a person was born on the 3rd or the 8th, if you know what I mean. When it's all said and done, who will remember that I was born on the 28th of July, not the 23rd. Two hundred years from now, if they get the year right, I'd be surprised. And we all know that official records aren't always correct. Tombstones have numerous errors. Obituaries and Bible records aren't perfect. Whose to say the document we're using as a source is correct? So, I guess all I can do is give it my best effort and hope that I don't introduce too many more errors. Does any of that make sense? I notice a lot of people are directing their replies to you. Your work is certainly recognized and appreciated. I still am amazed at the way people have shared their information. Who would have thought?
