I understand you accept TURNER queries and forward them to your list. I hope you can help me. My g-grandfather was Elijah M. Barnes. August 4, 1866 he married Jane Turner (McDowell County, NC marriage index). Two of their children's death certificates list the mother as Jane Turner, born in McDowell County, NC. Elijah & Jane are listed on the census for Dysartsville, McDowell County for 1870 and 1880. Elijah died about 1891 and Jane is listed in the 1900 census in Caroleen, Rutherford County, NC. Elijah and Jane sold property in Burke & McDowell counties in 1875, 1884, 1886, and 1887. In these property records she is identified as Neroa, Nervy, Manervy, and Manervy Jane. I assume her name to be Manerva Jane Turner. From the census records she was born about 1846/47. My problem is this is all the information I can find on her. I have no idea who her parents are. I cannot find any record of a Turner family in McDowell or the surrounding counties with a daughter that might be my Jane. This mystery woman is a real puzzler to me. Perhaps someone will recognize her, especially if she was in another state. ================================================= Date: Tue, 28 Jan 1997 20:24:06 +0700 From: Walter Clark Reply-To: awc@pei.sympatico.ca To: ncreed@pop.erols.com Subject: Turner I was advised another Internet user that I should contact you with regards to my Turner relatives. My great grandmother was Sarah Turner, and she was born in Tennessee (probably either Knox or Jefferson Co.) in 1821. She was married in Knox County in 1842 to Dempsey Fielden. She had a sister, Sylvania Turner, known as "Vaney", who was born in 1829. Sarah and Vaney were almost certainly half Cherokee. I would very much like to determine who their parents were. Do you have any suggestions as to how I should proceed? Thanks for your time. ======================================================== Date: Sat, 1 Feb 1997 08:03:50 -0500 (EST) From: "Christine E.

If it would be handier for you all, I can probably put the file on the server at KU, and you can put a link on the Burnett-Turner page to my homepage...I intend to publish some family tree stuff on my page along with other things. Let me know if this would work, and I'll make the arrangements.

Just let me know what the URL is. Many thanks!
