Ms. Pearson,

There is not Bevans Turner in my family but there are
several William Turners. If your family came from
Dover, Delaware, they may be part of different family
of Turners.

There is a project to identify the descendants of the
Chesapeake Turners using DNA analysis. In order to
use it you have to have a male Turner relative who
descends from Bevans Turner through an all male
lineage. Please let me know if you are interested.

You can find more information on DNA analysis at
