There is a family tree which gives Williams wife as Margaret Elizabeth JOHNSON born 1 Jun 1890.  Is that correct?  If so then William's birth name may be BELL.  The 1939 Register index has them at Stanley UD and William as:

William    Bell (Turner)    1895    Stanley U.D.    Durham

You can work out his month of birth as being March.

Yes that's the correct William Debra
so he was born William Bell ?
But on 1911 Census it has William born in Blyth ????
Ahhh ok Stanley was the district he was living in 1939 ?

Cool Thanks Debra so that's looking like Annie Turner
Wonder why Annie is on 1901 Census but not William If they were brother and sister then ?
Why adopt one then another later ? very strange

If they were siblings then they may have been related to John TURNER or one of his wives in some way.  You would need to get the birth cert to see if the birth date matches and to see how his parents are named.
