Generation: 1

  1. 1.  Sarah Turner was born Abt 1824, MA (daughter of John D. Turner and Sarah "Sally" Burwell).

    Sarah married Samuel O. Brooker 5 May 1858, Washington, MA. [Group Sheet]


Generation: 2

  1. 2.  John D. Turner was born Abt 7 Nov 1791, Sand Lake, Rensselaer Co., NY (son of David Turner and Susan Ann Simpson); died 19 Nov 1871, Granville, Hampden Co., MA.

    Notes:

    I have made an assumption that these are the parents of William B. Turner, because they were all born in NY, and all are living at Becket, MA, in the censuses.

    In the 1850 and 1860 Federal Censuses, John & Sarah Turner are living at Becket, Berkshire Co., MA.

    In 1870, John is living at Granville, Hampden Co., MA, with Samuel & Sarah Brooker and family. Sarah Brooker is John's daughter. I assume his wife Sarah must have died.

    John's death record at Granville identifies his parents as David & Susan Turner. This may or may not be accurate, depending on the knowledge of the informant at the time of his death. The 1800 Federal Census lists a David Turner at Schodack, Rensselaer Co., NY; data shows two white males under age 10, among other categories. There are several other Turner families listed for that area of New York State.

    John married Sarah "Sally" Burwell Abt 1811, NY. Sarah (daughter of William Burwell and Elizabeth Salsbury) was born 19 Apr 1788, Scotland or NY; died 1866. [Group Sheet]


  2. 3.  Sarah "Sally" Burwell was born 19 Apr 1788, Scotland or NY (daughter of William Burwell and Elizabeth Salsbury); died 1866.

    Notes:

    A family note says she was born in Scotland, but the census records show her birthplace as New York State. Perhaps her parents came from Scotland.

    Notes:

    I have estimated the year and place of marriage.

    Children:
    1. William Burwell Turner was born Between 1812 and 1814, Esopus, Ulster Co., NY; died 20 Oct 1890, Becket, Berkshire Co., MA.
    2. 1. Sarah Turner was born Abt 1824, MA.


Generation: 3

  1. 4.  David Turner

    Notes:

    According to a family notation, he was German. This needs more research.

    The 1800 Federal Census lists a David Turner at Schodack, Rensselaer Co., NY. This could be David & Susan's family. Schodack was part of Rensselaerwyck prior to 1795.

    David — Susan Ann Simpson. [Group Sheet]


  2. 5.  Susan Ann Simpson

    Notes:

    According to a message on the Turner message board at genealogy.com, she was Susana Simpson.
