I must confess I thought this would probably be a one- or two-time compilation. Chris Gaunt continues to archive all of our information on her homepage. This gives each of us more opportunities to share our information. Hopefully, we will all benefit from this exchange. Thanks to everyone who has shared family information. And a special thank you to Chris for her dedication to this effort. If anyone has a success story, please share it with us. Looking forward to hearing from each of you as you add another generation or a new cousin to your database. Nyla Creed DePauk Vienna VA ================================== X-Sender: Pat-Chesney@hobby.easy.com Date: Sat, 1 Jun 1996 12:51:27 -0500 To: ncreed@erols.com From: Pat-Chesney@easy.com (Pat Chesney) Subject: TURNER RESEARCH Hi, Nyla, Thanks for going to the trouble to look up in the archives for the Sumner Co. connection. I wrote Anthony Turner after you wrote me but forgot to write you! He was really looking for the Adam Turner person. Anthony has sent me two big nice fat packages and I am interested in his big computer file but I'm going to have to ask my husband about how to do that. I'm not the computer person around here. Did you find out about it? I posted to NC/SC roots once a few weeks ago and got an immediate reply from another new found cousin who has the Turner family back to Terisha Turner also. She was going on a three week vacation though and I haven't heard back from her yet. There is another Terisha Turner researcher and we three are all coming down from different of his children's lines so it is very interesting and we will be able to help each other document more of this family and hopefully that info might help us go back another generation. I have not gotten to do as much library work reseaching as I'd like but plan on doing that this summer and sending in a gedcom to Cliff and see if anyone in that program has a Terisha Turner in their gedcom. :) Doesn't seem to be as much activity on the Turners lately. Anthony's materials may help people move their research forward if we could find a way to access it easier. Thanks for helping with the Turner newsletter! Terri Chesney ================================================= From: "Chris Ebel" Organization: Crestline Marketing Group To: ncreed@pop.erols.com Date: Mon, 3 Jun 1996 16:42:02 +0000 Subject: Burnetts Reply-to: cebel@success.net Return-receipt-to: cebel@success.net Priority: normal Hi, I've visited the Web site on Burnett-Turner, etc. families and hope that someone can help me find out more about a branch of Burnetts from Yorktown, VA. Unfortunately, my knowledge of family details is not as thorough as some of those on your mailing list. Forgive my sketchiness. Here's what I know. George Washington Burnett b. 1810-15? in Yorktown, VA. (He is my great great great grandfather) His mother was a Gibbons (sp?). There were apparently several siblings. His father died young and the mother remarried. GW Burnett went to live with his grandfather, Matthew Gibbons, who was an English sympathizer during the Revolutionary War and a friend of Cornwallis (commander of British Army). GW Burnett moved to Paris KY probably about 1830 or so with a brother (name unknown), stayed a couple years, married a young woman whose surname was Stowers, then moved to Lewis County, Missouri. Their children were Margaret, Grant, Washington Jefferson (my great great grandfather), Will, Stowers, and another child (name unknown). Washington Jefferson Burnett married Lois Anne Ewing in late 1880s. They had one child, Ewing Preston Burnett, born in 1895. They stayed in Lewis County. Ewing Burnett married Inez Melissa Brace in 1913? and also stayed in Lewis County. Had two daughters (Dorothy Lois and Jamye Melissa). I'm interested in learning more about George Washington Burnett, where his family came from, and what happened to all his siblings. Let me know if you can help. Thank you Sincerely, Sidney (Burnett) Stevens ================================================= From: tturner@mail.state.tn.us Date: Tue, 04 Jun 96 14:47:40 +0700 To: ncreed@erols.com Subject: Re: Turners Content-Id: <45_92_1_833914060> E-mail: tturner@mail.state.tn.us Comptroller of the Treasury State of Tennessee Nyla, Thanks for your help. You were asking about the counties that I have researched in Tn. They are as follow: Davidson, Dekalb, Dickson, Hardeman, Humphreys, Maury, Montgomery, Rutherford, Robertson, Stewart, Sumner, Tipton, Wilson, Williamson. If you will give me an address I will Mail you a hard copy. I do not know how to translate my diskett so that you can read it. However,after you printed my correspondence in your update I received an inquiry to translate it and put it out for you. I am in the process of mailing a diskett to this individual. You were also inquiring about which Turner's I was researching. I am trying to find the father and brothers of John Turner. Yes another John. My John Turner was born in Ireland around 1755 and came to the U.S. at an early age. John Turner married Elizabeth Dillard of Halifax Co Va. John Turner served in the Revolutionary War and was at Valley Forge. John Turner was under the Command of Thomas Marshall. John Turner came to Tn. around 1804 in the company with the Adams family with which the Turner's intermarried. The Children of John Turner are: William, George, William Dillard, Francis, Elizabeth, Margaret, Samuel, John Thomas Turner, Elisha, Howard Williams. In researching the Turners of Tn. I found some information that was of key interst to me, and I thought might be of inportance to your readers. After the Civil War Mrs. John Trotwood Moore sent out a questionaire to Civil War Veterans asking for information concerning the Veterans background. The questionaire asked for the veterans parents and grandparents. One of the questionaires was completed by F.A.Turner(veteran)the son of Thomas J.B. Turner (father) the son of Daniel Turner (Grandfather). The veteran stated the following about his grandfather "There were 7 brothers of them, all in the Revolutionary War. My grandfather Turner built the first mill on Mills Creek. hence its name. My Grandfather Wilson was also a Revolutionary Soldier" I think that this Daniel was a brother to my John. From my research of Middle Tn. I am convinced that all of these Turner's are related. I have reviewed the War records on microfilm from the National Archives. >From my review I am convinced that these 7 brothers are as follows: John (my grandfather), Daniel(1), Francis(2), James(3), Thomas(4), William(5), George(6). Daniel (1) was the first Turner that I was able to find in Tn. As indicated above he settled on Mills Creek at the time in Davidson Co. His decendents are throughout Middle Tn. Francis (2) Even thought he did not settle here I am convinced that his children did. According to revolutionary War Records Francis was born in Ireland in 1750. He served in the Revolutionary War Under Thomas Marshall. The children of Francis were: Ester,Adam,John, James & Elizabeth. Adam and John come to Sumner co. around 1796. James (3) was born in 1756 according to Revolutionary war records in Culpepper Co Va. and died in Williamson Co. Tn. in 1835. James originally came to Tn. as the result of buying a land grant form Thomas Donaho of Caswell Co. NC. James bought this grant along with Thomas Turner of Caswell Co. NC. James' children were Mildred, Sarah, Nancy, Dr. William M. Turner. According to Goodspeeds history of Williamson Co. "Dr. William M. Turner was born in Williamson Co. Tn Sep 26, 1831, son of Joseph R. and Elizabeth H.(Marshall) Turner. The father was born in Maryland in 1801 and his mother, who was a sister of the Honorable John Marshall". Thomas Marshall (who the Turners served under during the Revolutionary War) was a very close and personal friend of Geroge Washington and the father of John Marshall the Great Chief Justice. Goodspeeds also indicates that Dr William M. Turner's grandparents were from Ireland. Thomas (4) Is shown as buying the land with James Turner above. Evidently Thomas returned to Caswell co. NC. somewhere around 1818. In a land transaction it states that "Thomas Turner of Caswell Co. NC. appointed James Turner of Williamson Co. Tn. to sell a parcel of land in Rutherford Co. The transaction was witnessed by James yancy and Thomas Harrlson. Thomas Turner evidently married a Yancy girl. Yancy became a prominent name in the Turner family in Tn. Interestingly enough Caswell Co. NC county seat is Yancyville. William (5) According to a history of Wilson Co. it states that"my great Grandfather was william Turner of NC. and served in continental army with the North Carolina Troops. William Turner Witnessed in land transactions of James and Thomas above. William was married to ? ,Francis. George (6) I have found no direct link with George in Tn. as of yet. However, I feel that George is probably the last Brother. In researching the Revolutionary War records of Virginia for Turners, I found where Richard Burnett received the pay for two Turners: George and William. Richard Burnett picked up their pay for them on May 2, 1787. The initial "B." is used numerous times as a middle Initial for the Turners of Tn. I am guessing that it stands for Burnett. If you look at my John's children you will see that 4 of the above names were given to his children: William, George, Francis and Thomas. ============================================ X-Sender: cdorian@accessone.com (Unverified) Date: Tue, 04 Jun 1996 16:55:49 -0700 To: ncreed@erols.com From: Charles Dorian Subject: Burnett fata Hi Nyla, I have made a descendancy chart of seven generations for my BURNETT family. I could go to nine but my listing at seven is 10 pages! I am going to send you two pages at a time. As you might imageine, family group sheets for this line would take lots of pages. I will be glad to work with anyone if they are connected into this line at some point. Zachariah Burnett (1794-1860/70) had a second marriage to a Mary Ford. I have located the Ford line if someone is interested. Yes, I was dong genealogy when I lived in DC. For the two yers before coming out here I was the President of the Capital PAF Users Group. I started doing the Burnett line in early 1970's and also my first wife's father's line - MILLER - (from Long Isand) - at the same time. I have been the Chairman of the Eastside Genealogical Society (Bellevue, WA) Computer Interest Group for the past two years - so have my hands full. I have just become the President of this Society, membership is 370+.

It looks good to me. I'll add your message(s) to the next compilation. Any format folks care to use is fine with me. It's the information that's important.
