So HE is the one killed in WW1 !

[heywood]

Well I did wonder if that is where the story came from 

[Jomot]

Crikey, I see he married Mary Ann Smith in Sunderland, 1910, and there is a newspaper article in July 1911 about a William Turner aged 21 of Sunderland charged with attempted murder of his 5 1/2 month old child. 

Checking the prison records the child was Elizabeth Ellen Turner:

TURNER, ELIZABETH ELLEN  mmn SMITH  - 1911  M Quarter in SUNDERLAND  Volume 10A  Page 675

Pleaded guilty, got 2 months hard labour

Who's William Peveral Turner ?
What's the connection ?

TURNER, WILLIAM  mmn PEVRILL  1890  D Quarter in LANCHESTER

This chap I would say

Son of George Morland Turner and Agnes nee Peverill


Married to Mary

Why would my grandad think his cousin was his father getting killed in WW1 ?
