TURNER BILLINGSLEY CONNECTIONS

Bennie Lou Hook Altom  (View posts) Posted: 15 Jul 2001 2:24PM GMT
Surnames: BILLINGSLEY, FORD, TURNER
My TURNER/BILLINGSLEY connection is that of CHARITY FORD who married JOHN BILLINGSLEY 1782 Charles County Maryland. CHARITY FORD's sister, CONSTANTIA FORD is my direct ancestor. JOHN & CHARITY moved to Richmond NC circa 1790.

My ancestor, CHARITY FORD BILLINGSLEY's sister, CONSTANTIA FORD, m/ JAMES SMITH, s/o JAMES SMITH and SARAH TURNER,Sarah was d/o JAMES TURNER and KERENHAPPUCH NORMAN. JAMES SMITH was s/o RICHARD SMITH and MARY, s/o RICHARD SMITH and ANNE TURNER, ANNE TURNER SMITH being d/o ARTHUR TURNER (d.1666 Charles County MD).

There is a book "THE BILLINGSLEY FAMILY IN AMERICA' by Harry Alexander Davis, 1936. I have the only TURNER entry copied but don't know if that is the connection you are seeking.

Harry Davis says MESHACK TURNER m/o REBECCA __(?)and they settled in Wilkes County Georgia. The family was originally from Caroline County VA and Pittsylvania County VA. Meshack d. 1790. Rebecca d.1796. Her will names the following children:

1. REBECCA TURNER, b.176-
2. MESHACK TURNER, JR., b.c176-
(1) NANCY TURNER
(2) SALLY TURNER
(3) MESHACK TURNER
(4) JAMES TURNER
3. JOHN TURNER, b. c1770
4. JAMES TURNER, b. 1772, m/ SARAH ___(?)
(1) SARAH W. TURNER,b.1794,m/FRANCIS BILLINGSLEY
(2) JAMES TURNER, b. c1798
(3) JOHN TURNER b. 18--GA
(4) DANIEL CALHOUN TURNER, b. 1802, m/ NANCY CULWELL
(5) MESHACK TURNER, d. young
(6) MARTHA COLEMAN TURNER, b. 1812 GA, m/ Mr. Williamson
(7) MANUEL COLEMAN TURNER,b1814GA,m/1 Susan,m/2 Cynthia

Those are the only TURNER / BILLINGSLEY connections I know about but am sure there are others.
