Is this possible? My Turners were in Loudoun Co. (1757->), Fairfax Co. (before 1757), and Northumberland Co. in 1706. I have a lot of info. I'd be happy to share on FIELDING TURNER (b.1706-d.1794), WILLIAM TURNER (1733-18??), LEWIS ELLZEY TURNER (1754-1823). I also have info. on many of the people related to these 3.

I've discovered that there are some email systems that will not allow messages over a certain length, as my autoreply for the gresinet.txt file bounces regularly with some internet providers. Also, it probably would be best to call "Genealogy Resources on the Internet" by its usual filename, gresinet.txt, so folks know what they are getting. There is a link to a zipped version of gresinet.txt from the World Wide Web section of Genealogy Resources on the Internet. I could easily add a link to it from the Burnett/Turner/Via/Ross/Etc page. Do you think the compilations should be available via email? Chris PS. You might want to let folks know that you are sending a large attachment with your email *before* you send it. Even those of us with large mailboxes sometimes are very near the maximum [sigh!] and would probably need to clean out some of the older messages before receiving a 1Meg message.

This is great Nyla, for the next compilation.... Folks, I've tried this before... I'll try it again -- Hopefully, there's some new folks...! I'm particularly intrigued by the James Burnett of Pittsylvania Co. My g-g-g-grandfather was JOHN GREENBERRY BURNETT (1810-1893). He was born, lived and died in Sullivan County, TN. Census records indicate his parents were Virginians. His children were: Decatur Hamilton Burnett, Simon Peter Burnett, Martin Van Buren Burnett, John A. Burnett, Andrew Burnett, Cyrus Burnett, Martha Burnett Miller -- all born from 1833 to about 1850 in Sullivan County, TN. Who were his parents?? Family legends consistently down multiple lines say the same thing... 1) His father or grandfather came from Ireland (Dublin to be specific). 2) His father was named John or Greenberry (Berry) ... 3) that his father went hunting one day when he was very young and disappeared. And, 4) that his mother was most likely Cherokee (John G DID speak Cherokee). Are the legends true?? Who knows! But, I'm hoping that if there some shred of truth to them some of you may recognize the stories. Also... anyone have a John (born around 1780) who might have disappeared from your radar screen??
