Dear Phil & Sue:
My 3rd Great Grandmother, Susanna "Susan" Turner Dunning, always lived (at
least after her marriage) in Cotton Township, Switzerland County, Indiana on
the old Dunning homestead, located on Red Hog Pike (old days called Dunning
Lane). Her husband, Michael Dunning, purchased the original land patent in
1834. She is buried in New Liberty Cemetery (old days called Liberty
Cemetery). I have a picture of her tombstone on my web site, if you would
like to check it out. So, it appears there are two Susanna Turners.
By the way, the dates are wrong on the Indiana State Library's web site.
I have copies of Mariah's and Susanna's marriage licenses and copies of the
census records listing them. If you would like a copy, please send a SASE to:
TSgt Mark E. Dunning, USAF

Regards,
Mark

<< Hi Sue,
I found the following marriages in Switzerland Co. before 1850:

Aldeh Dunning m. Mariah Turner on 04-01-1835
Michael Dunning m. Susanna Turner on 08-27-1829
Were there more than two Susanna Turners living in the county then, or is
the Susanna who married Michael Dunning the same one who is your ancestor?
The hunt for the female Turners is getting curiouser.
