Robert Smart Turnbull
« on: Saturday 17 June 17 09:39 BST (UK) »
I'm researching ancestors of my GG grandfather Robert Smart Turnbull b. Alnham 1828.  I've seen some helpful posts from 2013 that confirmed my own findings about his siblings.  I'm looking for verification of RST's father James Turnbull b.1781 Ovingham (?), RST's uncle John Turnbull b.1787(?) and their parents (possibly James and Ann but no firm leads).  Thanks to anyone who can help or is researching this family. :)

Although I worked on this Family in 2013 something doesnt add up here.

James/Elizabeth look possibly to old to be Roberts Parents.

Do you have the 1850 M/C of Robert?

I think the only way to go with this one is to purchase the marriage certificate and then at least you do have a confirmed father for him
