Title: John Turner of Great Cumberland St.
Post by: Ulrich A Klug on Tuesday 22 June 10 14:06 BST (UK)

I am looking for details on my gr-gr-gr-gr-gr-grandfather

John Turner Esq.  he lived 1773-1779 at 1 Great Cumberland Street, St. George Hanover Square, Westminster, and

died at that place 01. Dec. 1779 (London Gazette).

He had several daughters:

* Charlotte (1751-1844), married to John Boylston Hallen,
* Lucy, unmarried, died 1829,
* Henrietta Maria, married to Richard Ware, a glazier of Birmingham,
* Sarah Turner (1749-1828), married 1776 in Stoke on Trent to the potter Thomas Whieldon (1719-1795).
* Maria Turner, married to George Goodwin.

But who was their mother? And where did John Turner come from, and which occupation did he have before moving to Gr. Cumberland Street.

I haven't been able to find any of the daughter's births in IGI.

Thx a lot Jennifer, but do you think there was a Sarah born ca. 1749 and Henrietta Maria in 1751 and Lucy Turner born in ca. 1752 in the same place?
