I joined it because it has Burnetts. Don't think any of mine are on here, but it was nice to see June on this list. We corresponded years ago before email when you had to do it the old fashion way and then wait and wait for your answer. Anyway the reason I am writing. Someone wrote in about Turners in Maryland, I have a book 'The Boston Family of Maryland" there is a few Turners listed in it and I would be happy to look for any of your Turners, just give me a name and date if you have it.

Schuyler Hamilton owned a part of the Richard Smith Grant at Ramsey. Unto Schuyler and Susannah Hamilton was born seventeen children. Among these was Louis, Loucinda, and Lucy who were triplets. When the triplets were born old Schuyler was out in the field plowing an old horse called "Kit" and one of the other children came running out and said "Paw, theres a new baby up at the house." "Alright, get up Kit," he said. Soon the child came again and said theres another baby up at the house Paw." "Alright, get up Kit." he said again. Soon the child came running back again and said, "There is still another baby up at the house Paw." "Whoa Kit," he said. "I'll be jobbed if I don't go up there and put a stop to that." ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 20 Sep 1998 15:19:37 -0400 From: "Mitosis" To: "Btrvetc List" Subject: Data Resource Message-ID: <00d601bde4cb$9fd6f240$43358acd@mitosis> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Franklin is getting to be a site to frequent for raw data. Seem to be trying to make real effort to get data of the type most buffs can utilitize http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/va/franklin.htm Tip for those using IE4 browser... when adding to your "favorites" you have an option to select "notify of changes", some words to that effect. Choosing this option will generate an email advising you when site has been modified, which generally means new data posted. Great little tool, try it! Tip Win98 OS... The "WordPad.Exe" therein is a new version. Problem, this tool is buggy (so what's new). Code changes resulted in "extreme slowdown in loading time". Inability to load text or *.rtf files larger than 2meg or so. Backup the W98 WordPad.Exe (safey first!) and replace same with "WordPad.Exe" from W95. No other files need to changed or modified. This will cure and resolve all problems with Wordpad!

I know Anita has been looking for this dude for some time. Anybody that asks for help and offers help in the same breath you gotta like.

Yeah I know, really gave you a lot to work with! :=) Eunice was it Patrick or Bedford that we find all those Quaker Families? Remember big chat on which way the creek flowed in front of one of the meeting house. Now that's what I call "DOCUMENTATION" Anita... That name "Beeson" suggest alternate spellings, got any more on that? When finish here, I'll check the GenList for "email site" Beeson and Beason.

(gotta take that "Clinton Campain Sticker" off my monitor) And any better ideas would be appreciated! ========================== "In answer to your query of which Turner clans are represented - my group supposedly started in VA, but I can only vouch for Thomas Turner (born 1794, Harper's Ferry, VA) and Hannah Carson (born 1797, Harper's Ferry, VA) in Butler County, KY in early 1820's. They had a whole clan of Turners, who scattered to LA, TX (Mostly) and CA - also some to AR. ****** This is what we after Folks ******* My brick wall is with Thomas and his father, who was William Turner, supposedly killed by Indians on his way to KY in 1796, when Thomas was a toddler. ******************************************** Don't know anything about Thomas' mother. Thomas was taken in and raised by a Quaker family by the name of Beeson. That's absolutely as far back as I can go, no matter what I've tried. I'll be glad to send any other information that might be helpful and would dearly love to meet up with anyone else working on this group. Here's more on the immediate family of Thomas and Hannah: Thomas TURNER (b. 1794) married Hannah CARSON (b. 1797) (daughter of James Beatty CARSON) in Harper's Ferry, VA in 1818. They moved to Butler County, KY and had the following children: James William (b 1819?) mar. Elisabeth SMITH David Carson mar. Mary PORTER Benjamin mar. Rebecca ???? Hamilton Beatty ( b 1821) mar. Mary Caroline PARKS John Smith (Jack) (b 1827) mar. (1) Matilda SWEATT, (2) Susan Frances REEKS Edward Carroll (b 1831) mar. (1) Mary McMILLAN, (2) Margaret Susan MANSFIELD Susanna (b 1832-1835) mar. A.C.W. SMITH Robert Henry (b 1834) mar. Mary Emma ???? Mary Ann (b 1837) mar. George W. CALDWELL Elizabeth (b 1842) Hannah died 1844, Thomas married Rachel Porter COOK (b 1812). Their children: Eliza Frances ( b 1847) mar. Gus CHANDLER Nancy Virginia (b 1848) mar. Jefferson Lee BELCHER Several of the kids scattered, some to TX, some to ARK, might have been some to LA and OH. Also (sorry this is so long) - I've been following your messages, and really appreciate your trying to sort out Turner lines. I have the following books, and would be glad to supply "look-up help", should it be useful to you: 1. Genealogy of the Descendants of Humphrey Turner 2. The Turner Family by Mrs. Ben (Floy) Peterson 3. Turner-Hoyle and Related Families 4. Leftwich-Turner Families of Virginia and Their Connections 5. Turner Family Records by S.A. Perry. The last one, the Perry book, also attempted to sort out Turners by clans, and has a great start on several groups. Any way I can help, let me know!

I was sure you addressed this problem at one time, however I couldn't find it in the archives. Appreciate any you can share. _Mitosis_ ----------------- Mitosis, I have been struggling to find information on the following ancestors, thought you might be able to help sort everything out. Apparently there was two John Turners and two Nancy Brunet's. One John Turner and Nancy Brunet got married in 1804 in Patrick County, Virginia, had a family there and died there. The John Turner and Nancy Brunet I am interested in were married in (per oral history) Patrick County, Virginia, had four children there (the marriage certificates of these four children state they were born there), moved to Floyd County, Kentucky and had five more children. John and Nancy's first child was Adam Turner born about 1815 in Patrick County, Virginia. I know from court documents that Nancy's father was William Brunet. Nancy had a sister named Elizabeth who married John Toggle. Their other children are: Elizabeth, Judith, Greenville, Morgan, William, John Burke, Israel and Alexander. Any information you might be able to provide on this family would be appreciated. /s/ Jim Spencer ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 21 Sep 1998 04:51:59 -0400 From: "Mitosis" To: "Btrvetc List" Subject: Can Anyone?

Note that we're apt to get tripped up in our search by names "Beeson and Tearner". " Edward Beeson, aged 73, a resident of Butler County, KY, declared 18 Aug 1854, that he had been personally acquainted with Thomas Turner since his (Turner's) infancy, that he was an orphan and one of Beeson's brothers took Turner "while he was quite an infant to raise him until he was grown." He further stated that Turner was called by different names; that he was frequently called by the name Beeson; that when his name was placed on Militia Roll it was written Tearner." Thanks to all who have taken a moment to look into their database for us... it really is appreciated. Think I'll try to work on this a while longer... Anita's family need to know which proud Turner Lineage is theirs. So, for those who have helped and now have to give up the chase, maybe you could stick a note on your monitor and now and then glance up to remind yourself should you forget, as other search venues are persued the name, "William Turner, Harper's Ferry, Md. late of Butler County, Ky..." _Mitosis_ ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 21 Sep 1998 21:25:37 -0400 From: "Eunice B.
