**11.1.1.4.7. David <strong>Turner</strong>, (Listed in A.B.Burns data as a child), b. 1794- 95, b.<br />

in N.C. (aged 65 on 1860 Cens.); said to have <strong>md</strong>. several times, though I<br />

find no record. He <strong>md</strong>. (1) Sarah Jackson, b. 1801 in N.C., per 1860 Cens.; I<br />

do not know for sure her maiden name, but was always told by the "Old<br />

ones" it was Jackson. Ihave not been able to document any maiden name for<br />

her David married in Perry County, Ky. on June 20, 1823 to Sally __ . Her<br />

maiden name given Their 1st child, Wiley, was b. 1/15/1825. A greatgrandson<br />

says she was a Jackson. Maybe she is from the Owsley Co.<br />

'Jackson's"? Also, John <strong>Turner</strong> executed their marr. Bond in Perry Co.<br />

The other info I recieved on them is that David probably <strong>md</strong>. (2nd) Sarah!<br />

Sally (possibly Noble)_; David was known to have lived in Perry & Clay<br />

as well as Breathitt Co. 'so<br />

See Document Section for Marriage Bond of John Hollensworth, with<br />

David <strong>Turner</strong> as Bndsmn. David signs his own name and apparently can read<br />

& write well.<br />

I firmly believe, as did A.B.Burns, that David is s/o "Old" Roger <strong>Turner</strong>,<br />

b. 1757.<br />

When David & Sally <strong>Turner</strong> came to Ky., they settled in an area that came<br />

to be Perry Co., which later became Breathitt Co. In 1840, they were living<br />

on the Middle Fork of the Ky. River, around Lick Branch & <strong>Turner</strong>'s Creek<br />

area. According to the deed, they were neighbors to James "Shifty" <strong>Turner</strong><br />

& Thomas Herald, who <strong>md</strong>. Elizabeth "MaMa Betts" <strong>Turner</strong>. Both<br />

"Shifty" Jim & Thomas Herald are also my great & 2 nd grt. Gr. Parent's'!<br />

J.T.Burton.<br />

I secured a Deed in Perry Co., Ky., Deed Bk. B, p.66, wherein Peter<br />

Hammons enters a fee for deed to DAVID TURNER. Thus: "This indenture<br />

made & entered into this 5th day of August, 1831, between Peter Hammons<br />

& Nancy Hammons, of the County of Perry and State of Ky., of the one part,<br />

and David <strong>Turner</strong>, of the said county and state aforesaid, of the other part.<br />

The said Peter & Nancy Hammons, for and in consideration of $250.00 sell<br />

unto the said David <strong>Turner</strong>, a certain tract or parcel of land, containing 170<br />

acres, more or less, situated in Perry Co. with boundary on a conditional line<br />

between James <strong>Turner</strong> ("Shifty Jim! Hick") and Thomas Herald, on the<br />

back ~.ineof the land, thence to various courses Jnd distances and beginning,<br />

running so as to include the Sugar Camp, lying dn the LICK BRANCH, also<br />

all the improvements up to the hickory cord on the creek above said<br />

Hammon's. The deed is signed, sealed, and delivered in the presents of these<br />

witnesses: ROGER TURNER, THOMAS TURNER, & ALEXANDER<br />

HERALD. It was recorded by Jesse Combs, Clerk, on March 23, 1835. ( I<br />

have even checked to see if Sarah may have been a Hammons" but have<br />

found no records.)<br />

In the 1850 Cens. of Brthtt. Co., David <strong>Turner</strong> was House # 297, living<br />

with or next door to James "Shifty" <strong>Turner</strong> & sJah Jane Mayes, and house #<br />

297 is also listed as Samuel "Saul" <strong>Turner</strong> & Sarah Herald. Next to them in<br />
