I have three generations of John Turner b. 1739 d. 1913, Spartanburg Dist,
SC, md. Rebecca
Census: in 1790, only one John Turner appeared in the census records in
Spartanburg, SC District 96.
3 males over 16
4 males under 16
5 females

In the 1800 Census, John Turners' name appears again in Spartanburg Dist.
1 male under 10 (possibly Samuel)
3 males 16-26 (Elias, Nathan, Robert)
1 male 45 up (John)
1 female under 10
1 female 10-16
1 female 16-26
1 female 45 up (Rebecca)

Generation 4 5 known children
1800 census shows 7 children

Samuel
Elias
Nathan
Sally
Robert

Bill of Sale - John Turner Estate 20 Dec. 1834 lists the following Turners
who bought from the Estate: Rebekah, Mathias, John, Nathan, Sarah and Elias.

The will of John Turner was filed for probate 8 May 1813, in Spartanburg
Dist. , SC. It is interesting to note the estate sale was 20 Dec. 1834 or
21 years after John's death. Also, in 1838, in Lumpkin Co., Ga, there was
recorded:
"Power of Attorney Elias Turner of Lumpkin to Robert (Spartanburg, Dist.
1838) collect Elias's portion of John Turner's estate."
Will of John Turner names 2 children, Nathan and Sally, and ALL MY CHILDREN.

This may be who I think My Mathias Turner is, and John Turner may be his
father.
If anyone knows any more particulars of this family, I would appreciate
knowing more info.
Sincerely,
LaRee Nooner
