Hi Mary,

Irene identified your line so I could place your Willard, who I didn't have in
my data. I'll put a report below that will fill in a bit for you. Your
family branch is that of Howard Turk who has done a great deal of research on
the Turks. You might like to write to him as I'm sure he can give you lots
more info than I have. He'll be happy to hear from you, too. His address is:

Howard Turk
58 Lake Avenue
Lancaster, NY 14086

If you write him, tell him "hello" for me! I would like to have a couple
generations of your family if you wouldn't mind posting it. Later you can
share what Howard sends you (grin).

Thanks, Fran Daniels
