Richard Nowlin 3 Jun, not 30 Jun. Can you go any further back, or do do you have other info on Jeremiah Sr? Kurt =============================================================== Subj: Turner Family Date: 96-01-08 21:14:59 EST From: ross@interramp.com (Ross Chappell) To: NCreed@aol.com I am a descendant of Amanda Burnett Turner who married Robert Anderson Ross. Amanda Burnett Turner was a daughter of Shadrack Turner and Judith Burnett. Her grandparents were John Turner and Elizabeth Price. Her gr grandparents were Shadrack Turner and Ann (maiden name unknown), and Joseph Shores Price and Charity Bagby (tradition). Joseph Shores Price was a son of Joseph Price and Ann Shores. Amanda Burnett Turner and Robert Anderson Ross moved to Monroe Co, KY, where I grew up, and where there are numerous Ross's and Turner's. I am descended from their son, Lewis Cass Ross, who married Mary Ann Williams. The family of Mary Ann Williams was also from Henry County, so I have many lines into that part of VA. My cousin, Jane Turner Hamm, has been doing genealogy for many, many years. She founded the Louisville Genealogy Society. She SUSPECTS that John Turner may be the father of our Shadrack Turner, who married Ann (do you know her maiden name?). Although I am an active researcher, I have not workrd on my Turner line - I have been waiting for someone to write a "Turner: book. This past Saturday, I was at the VA Library in Richmond, and I decided to check into the Turner's a bit. My cousin Jane had told me there were references to our Turners in Caroline County records - I was prompted to do a little Turner work because of the recent postings placed on VA-ROOTS by you and others. Attached, please find a file that I sent to one of the other persons who had posted Turner information. I left Richmond a bit early to avoid snowstorm, so I didn't get to copy even a small fraction of Caroline Co records re Turner's. However, based on the little I found, it's not clear to me that John Turner is the best candidate to be father of our Shadrack. In the records, Sahdrack's younger siblings are selecting guardians. I suppose Shadrack was old enough that a guardian was not needed. I also suppose that the guardians of his siblings were aunts and uncles, but maybe there could be some older brothers and sisters who were guardians too. I am intrigued by your "DICKENS" line. I have a "DICKEN" line, and I wonder if they may be connected in someway. I am descended from CHRISTOPHER DICKEN who died ca1777 in Culpeper Co. He had 15 children, and all but one or two of them went to different parts of KY, most of them arriving there in the 1780's (an early day to be in KY). The earlier Dicken familiy lived in Glouchester Co (burned), and there are Dicken's in Caroline and Louisa Co. Are you connected to any of these? I regret that I have no information about the other family lines you mentioned. If you have not done so, I suggest you write, telephone, or visit the Bassett Public Library, in Bassett, VA (Henry Co). They have a wonderful collection of genealogy books, and a large collection of papers that have been submitted on the various families from that area. The file on Turners was too large for me to copy (I'm waiting for a book) - and there are numerous Turner's who yet live in that area. The genealogical librarian is Pat Ross, she is married to one of my distant cousins, and I know she would be glad to help you if you write or give her a call. The snowplow just now passed through. I had best go inspect the mountain it surely left in its wake. Thanks very much for the information you sent, I will review it carefully later tonight. Let's keep in touch. Regards, Ross Chappell ================================================================= From: Ross Chappell[SMTP:smtp.interramp.com] Sent: Sunday, January 07, 1996 11:52 PM To: 'cgaunt@umich.edu' Subject: Turner Family Chris, Hopefully we can track down some more information about our ancestors (with references). Surprising there is not a thorough book about the Turner family. There are numerous references to various "Turners" in the remaining records of Caroline County. The information I found in Richmond yesterday is summarized below: Caroline County Order Book 1732-1740 12 OCT 1732 - On the petition of John Townsend to choose William Sutton as his guardian, John Turner be summoned to court. (pg 43) 12 NOV 1736 - Richard Turner acknowledged his deed of land to his son Lewis Turner. Richard Turner acknowledged his deed of land to his son John Turner. Richard Turner acknowledged his deed of land to his son James Turner. (pg 379) 12 MAY 1738 - Richard Turner acknowledges his deed of gift to his son Richard Turner, Jr. (pg 477) Caroline County Order Book 1740-1744 12 NOV 1742 - The court proceeded to the proof of Richard Turner's will (Richard Turner the heir at law being present), which being proved by Samuel Norment and John Tounsend, two of the witnesses, is ordered to be recorded. And Elizabeth Turner having taken the oath of executrix, certificate is granted her for obtaining a probate thereof. James Turner, being appointed executor of the will, renounced toe executorship. Ordered that Samuel Norment, Titus Hurt, John Sutton and John Johns appraise the estate of Richard Turner. (pg 134) 11 MAR 1742/3 - The last will and testament of Richard Turner was presented in court by Margt. Turner and Lewis Turner, executrix and executor therein named, and James Turner, the heir at law, consented to the wills' being proved. Proved by Hugh Noden, Gent., Wm. Norment and Charles Noden, witnesses thereto. Ordered that William Whitlock, Henry Burk, John Dudley and John George appraise the estate of Richard Turner. (pg 159) Caroline County Order Book 1744-1746 11 JAN 1744/5 - Meshach Turner being admitted to choose a guardian made choice of James Turner, who with Samuel Norment acknowledged their bond. Abednego Turner being admitted to choose a guardian made choice of Wm. Pemberton, who with Robt. Powell acknowledged their bond. Elizabeth Turned being admitted to choose a guardian made choice of Jason Meadows, who with Lewis Turner acknowledged their bond. Sarah Turner being admitted to choose a guardian made choice of Jonas Meadows who with Lewis Turner acknowledged their bond. (pg 344) 12 APR 1745 - John Turner vs Joseph Street dismissed, being agreed. (463) 27 MAY 1745 - The last will and testament of Lewis Turner was presented by John Turner executor therein named, and proved by Richard Turner and John Johns, two of the witnesses. The executor with Thomas Johnson, Gent., his security and bond. (pg 83) Caroline County Order Book 1746-1754 12 OCT 1752 - Thomas Turner and Eliz his wife acknowledge their deed to Geo Holloway. James Turner and Mary his wife acknowledge deed to Edmd Jones. (pg 350) Caroline County was formed in 1728 from Essex, King and Queen, and King William Counties. King William is, I believe, a burned county. However from Va Land Grant records: 1 APR 1717 - John Sutton, Richard Mauldin and Thomas Terry granted 600 acres in King William County, adj. Richard Turner (and others) 13 NOV 1721 - Richard Turner granted 380 acres in King William Co, St. John's Parish, on branches of Jack Pond swamp and Polecat swamp. 13 NOV 1721 - Richard Turner granted 400 acres in King William County, above the rangers path by N. side of Reedy swamp. (same day, Samuel Norment was granted 325 acres above mouth of reedy swamp) The 1704 Quit Rent List of Virginia shows: Richard Turner 200 acres King and Queen County Thomas Turner 267 acres King and Queen County Early Reference to Shadrack Turner: 20 NOV 1757 - Halifax Co, VA DB 1:372 Deed from John Watson to Thomas Watson. Land adjacent to Shadrack Turner's line. witnesses include THOMAS TOWNSEN Thanks again for the E-mail address of the lady whose husband descends from Robert Anderson Ross. I will send you copies of anything I find on the Turner's or Tate's - and I intend to check out your famous web page. Regards, Ross Chappell ross@interramp.com 11313 Rambling Road Gaithersburg, MD 20879 ================================================================= Subj: Re: Turner Family Date: 01/10/96 To: ross@interramp.com Ross: In a message dated 96-01-08 21:14:59 EST, you write: >...based on the little I found, it's not clear to me that John Turner is the best candidate to be father of our Shadrack I have studied for several hours your Caroline findings. I find nothing among your notes to indicate that John was or was not the father of Shadrack, Meshack, and Abednego. However, there is a John Turner mentioned on 12 Oct 1732, pg 43, that could possibly be their father. Based on the info you sent me, and not adding anything else, I've penciled out a family compilation based on my understanding (or misunderstanding) of the Caroline information. Does this look like a possibility? A. Richard TURNER (Sr) (1704 Quit Rent List of VA K&Q Co) (died prior to 12 Nov 1742). Married Elizabeth ____ (she was the executrix of his will). Their children (have no idea the ordering): -1 Richard Turner (Jr) (named heir at law of Richard Turner (Sr). Possibly married Margaret ____ (was executrix of Richard Turner (Jr)'s will. However, Margaret may have been an unmarried daughter). Children of Richard (Jr): (1) Lewis Turner (executor of Richard Turner (Jr)'s will). Died bef 27 May 1745. (12 Nov 1736 Richard acknowledges Lewis as son in deed of land.) (2) James Turner (heir at law of Richard Turner (Jr)'s will). A James Turner married Mary ____; this may by the same James Turner. (12 Nov 1736 Richard acknowledges James as son in deed of land.) (3) John Turner (executor of Lewis Turner's will). (12 Nov 1736 Richard acknowledges John as son in deed of land.) B. Thomas TURNER (1704 Quit Rent List of VA - K&Q Co). married Eliza ____, Deeded property to Edmd Jones on 12 Oct 1752. C. John TURNER was summoned to court on the petition of John Townsend to choose William Sutton as his guardian on 12 Oct 1732. He could be the unknown TURNER who died prior to 11 Jan 1744/5. Although there is nothing definite to prove the parentage, it is possible that John might be the father of the following children. Relationship based merely on the fact that there was a John Turner that I cannot place elsewhere: (1) Meshack Turner choose James Turner as guardian. Samuel Norment acknowledged their bond. (2) Abednego Turner choose William Pemberton as guardian. Robert Powell acknowledge bond. (3) Elizabeth Turner choose Jason Meadows as guardian. Lewis Turner acknowledged their bond. (4) Sarah Turner choose Jonas Meadows as guardian. Lewis Turner acknowledged their bond. Did you copy all the Turner wills in Caroline county? I would think if Mr. James Dana Turner (see below) had seen a will that all the children would have been listed in his "TURNERS". Well, I've studied this to death, and still don't know who the father of Shadrack, Meshack, and Abednego and the sisters might be. But it sure massages the brain a little more than complaining about shoveling the snow. By the way, I have a bunch of old Turner newsletters. I went thru the index and checked every Richard Turner. None was in Caroline County. There were several Halifax Co VA marriages. 6 Feb 1760 Meshack Turner and Rebecca Roberson was the oldest. There was a James Turner and M. McMahaney marrtubg on 17 Feb 1763. No more 'til the 1780's. Then I find an article "TURNERS" by James Dana Turner, Jr. (Feb 1976 issue). (This is the one I mention above.) It starts off like this: (1) John Turner b ? d 1744 Caroline VA - Places of Residence Lands End, Cornwall, England. Children: * 1. Shadrack b ca 1720 d ca 1783 Henry Co, VA md ca 1745 Ann Hill(?) 2. Meshack md/2 6 Feb 1760 Pittsylvania Co, VA Rebecca Roberson. [Note another sheet lists their marriage in Halifax Co VA.--njd] 3. Abednego never married. (2) Shadrack (son of John) b ca 1720 England (?) md ca 1745 Ann Hill (?) (may be Pollard). Children: 1. Elizabeth b 1747/49 d 2 Aug Patrick Co, VA md ca 1769 Samuel Packwood. 2. John b 1749/50 Lunenberg Co, VA d 1812/16 Franklin Co, VA md 13 June 1786 Franklin Co, VA Elizabeth Price. More children listed. (4) John (son of Shadrack) b ca 1749 Halifax Co, VA d 1812/16 Franklin Co, VA d 13 Jun 1786 Franklin Co, VA Elizabeth Price b ca 1758, dau/o Joseph and Charity (Bagby) Shore. [I don't quite follow Elizabeth's parents.--njd] I find it interesting to see that John was listed as being born in Lunenberg Co and also in Halifax Co. The places of birth for the other 8 children are not given. I can't say with certainty, but it seems possible it was James Dana Turner's info as to the parents of Shadrack, Meshack, and Abednego that "established" John as the father. It certainly seems possible that John was the father. But to know for certain, we need more facts. Well, I'll stop for now. Hope to hear your comments, please. Thanks for sharing all this great information. Oh, I almost forgot. Tell me about your CHAPPELLs. Do they go back to NC (Surry or Wilkes Cos)? I have a SPARKS ancestor who married a Chappell. How do you pronounce it? More later. Nyla ================================================================= From ross@interramp.com Sat Jan 13 21:54:26 1996 Return-Path: ross@interramp.com Date: Sat, 13 Jan 96 21:49:52 -0500 From: Ross Chappell To: NCreed@aol.com Subject: Turner and Chappell Nyla, Sorry to be a bit tardy in reply to your last E-mail. I have been going through a few books and notes I have here at home looking for Turner information. I am becoming intrigued with the origins of Shadrack Turner. I have a book that is an everyname index to Lunenburg Co Deeds (1746-1795). Shadrack Turner's name is apparently in Lunenburg Co Deed Book 3 or 4 (recording dates 1752-1757). My index says it is on page 23 of TLC Genealogy's ABSTRACT BOOK 'B' OF LU NENBURG CO DB 3&4. Do you happen to have this book, or know someone who does? I was going to go to Richmond this AM, but after I got up, I decided there was too much snow. Chris Gaunt informs me that you have a newsgroup for persons interested in Turner's and related families. Would you please include me in the group. Regarding the "Chappell" family. My group of Chappell's originate in Princess Anne Co, VA (now Virginia Beach). My ancestor, Stephen Chappell, was a loyalist during the Revolution. He left Princess Anne during 1775 when Gov. Dunmore took about 900 loyalists to NY. Stephen served as a Private in the British Provincial Forces. He was selected to serve in the invasion of Charleston, SC, in 1780. He served under Col. Patrick Ferguson, and was captured at the battle of King's Mountain. He was taken prisoner to the lead mines in what is now Wythe County, VA - where he married Julia Ann _____ , who was one of the Germans from Pennsylvania. Stephen Chappell lived in what is now Wythe Co, VA until about 1796, when he moved to what is now Allegheny Co, NC. This area was Wilkes Co until 1799, when it became Ashe Co. Stephen Chappell moved back across the State line to Grayson Co in about 1811. He died in Wythe Co in 1822. The children of Stephen and Julianna Chappell were: 1. George Chappell - m. Elizabeth Pace then to KY 2. John Chappell m. Mary ______, lived Wythe and Tazewell Co, then to MO 3. Elizabeth Chappell m. Jacob Poff - then to TN and MS 4. Phoebe Chappell m. Francis Thompson 5. Dinah Chappell m. Anthony Bickel - to Ohio 6. Catherine Chappell 7. Unknown daughter probably born 1796-1800. I will tell you that it took CONSIDERABLE time for me to find the origins of Stephen Chappell. In doing so, I looked at the Chappell's in Surry Co. The original Chappell in that county was a George Chappell. George is a name that runs in my line of Chappell's too, both before and after Stephen. The George Chappell in Surry Co was living in a Thompson household in Maryland in 1776. Attached is a Microsoft Word file of miscellaneous information on the Chappell's in Surry Co, NC. I have not researched all the early Chappell families in Maryland, but some were here early (and in VA too). I would not be surprised if there was a family connection between my line and the Surry Co Chappell's - but I have no evidence of this. There are Chappell's who live today in Surry Co. If you are interested, I can probably find their addresses. There are also a group of Chappell's who live today in Fancy Gap, in Grayson Co, VA. I do not know the origins of this family, but somewhere in the back of my mind, I seem to recall they were Quakers and the first one came to Patrick/Grayson Co from Rockingham Co, NC (not sure of this). When did your ancestor live in that area, and what do you know of her? Maybe she is the daughter of Stephen Chappell that I am missing. By the way, do you know of any evidence that a JOHN TURNER died in Caroline Co in the 1740's? Also, are you aware of any proof that Shadrack Turner had a brother Meshack or Abednigo? I realize that the progression of names is logical, but I can't find even one record where Shadrack's name appears on the same page as theirs. If Lunenburg Co DB 3 or 4 does NOT show Shadrack Turner purchasing land, I think we will have learned something relevant. I almost forgot - "Chappell" is pronounced as if it were a small church (i.e. chapel) - rhymes with "apple".
