Hi Eddie; My wife's 5th ggf was Turner Branham (c1775-March 12, 1855)who married Mary Mott in Montgomery Co VA on March 16, 1795.Everyone seems to be in agreement that he was the son of David Branham Sr (c1735-1824).Turner might have been born in Spotsylvania Co, since David apparently did not migrate to Montgomery until after 1780.I am looking for some documentary proof of the relationship between David and Turner to satisfy the DAR's request in support of my wife's pending application based upon David's service in the Montgomery Co militia as of 1778.Any help would be greatly appreciated.Ron Smith
