Sarah "Sally" (Turner) Roe Mother of John Turner
I recently uncovered the fact that John Turner of Ray County, Missouri (b. 29 Mar 1794 Madison Co Kentucky d. 17 Oct 1872 Ray County Missouri) was the son of Sarah "Sally" Turner who married Edward Roe in Madison County Kentucky Dec 1800.We now know Sarah was John's mother due to Ray County Missouri trial testimony in 1901 in which James Roe states that his father, Thomas Henry Roe, andRiley Woodson Turner's Grandfather, John Turner, were half-brothers.
My father has had a 67 marker Y-Chromosome test done which has two matches to Jones males in Kentucky and N. Carolina.His DNA matched no known Turner lines.It is my hope that by putting this out someone may be able to link us to John's biological father, or give us more information as to who Sarah (Turner) Roe's parents were.
