1841 census gives Abraham & Elizabeths place of birth as 'Norfolk'  Both listed as 45.

They married in 1810 at Barton Turf, both of the parish

Where do you have them in 1851

Thanks to all, your combined information has given me new clues about Abraham Turner.I didn't know about his siblings so more research for me.
