Note: Ann Martin, A Turner researcher and descendant of Abraham Turner, has probate and obituary records that state he died January 31, 1870. Thanks for the update Ann! Often times the tombstone is not correct and Ann wants other researchers to be aware of her findings.
(Note: written by Eric Nagel)
Abraham Turner: Although his tombstone is located in the Turner Ridge Cemetery, his remains lie on what was called the Crotty farm along the Falmouth-Morgan Road. His tombstone was moved to Turner Ridge a number of years ago.
