Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Turner Family Magazine, Vol. 1 of 2: Genealogical, Historical and Biographical; January 1916, to April 1917 An ancient house of Norman-French origin, the Turners appear in England at the time of the Conquest. In the thirty-five different branches of the British family there are as many varied coats-of-arms. The distinguishing feature of a majority of these is the mill rind in which the center of the millstone is set, indicating that the early Turners were millwrights or millers. In America perhaps the earliest arrival was Humphrey Turner, who settled in Plymouth, Mass., in 1628. He became prominent in Scituate and conducted a tannery there as early as 1636. The Turners became a numerous family in Massachusetts, Rhode Island and in Maine. During King Phillip´s War, Captain William Turner gained a great victory in the Connecticut Valley, where Turner´s Falls, near Greenfield, Mass., was afterward named for him. In Maine the town of Turner was named for Rev. Charles Turner, one of the descendants of the first Humphrey. In Pennsylvania and Virginia, there were early arrivals who established large and prosperous communities. As early as 1672, Henry Turner was living in Northampton Parish, Va. In 1750 the Turners were firmly settled in North Carolina. The Turner Family Magazine will endeavor to present in each issue, new and heretofore unpublished records of the Turners in America, and private data and records from family bibles are solicited for publication.
