    Ruth:   I found your website through Find-a-Grave memorial page for Isaac Turner - he was the brother of my ancestor, Francis Turner who m. Mary Ashworth and died in Ellis Co. TX.
     
    Your website is great and I especially appreciate the old photos - I have "borrowed" some to add to the family tree I have on Ancestry.com   (McElroy and Odom Tree)   It is still very much a work in progress... 
     
    Again, thannks for the great research and for sharing!

    Hi LaVerne!

    So sorry to take so long to get back with you. Just not enough hours in the day....
    Very nice to meet another Turner "cousin"! I have met several cousins online for other ancestors, but never for Turners.

    I have oodles of documents and a few pix of Isaac and his wife Sarah, if you are interested. I'd be happy to send them to you. Anything you have, I'd love to trade! I also have Isaac's Civil War Pension file. Also a few "scraps" of his Bible, not easy to read, but I have transcribed them.

    I will try to get all my images and docs up to my Picasa Web Albums site today. You are most welcome to download any you need!

    Very nice to meet you and please write back!

Blackwell's guerrillas made a raid into Shelbyville, Tenn. The depot was guarded by twelve of Blackburn'stroops, who were captured, escorted into the country, and shot.
