THE TURNER LINE TURNER LINE - FIRST GENERATION Name: ISABELL TURNER Birth: 1630 Death: 1687/1701 Note: Source of last name: Esther Vawter, Prodigy MXSN08A, Feb 1993. Since most other sources identify Isabel's last name as unknown, I am including a quote from the Clifford Hardin manuscript about RobertTurner, who could possibly be related to our Isabel, maybe brother and sister since they both died within just a few years of each other. Robert Turner, at whose home both Ellinor and John Newby were married later removed to West Jersey where he died in 1700. Albert Cook Myres wrote about him in Immigration of the Irish Quakers into Pennsylvania as follows: He seems first to have become interested in colonization in 1677, when he and other Irish Friends acquired one whole share of West Jersey, their land being laid out on Newton Creek, near the site of Camden, in 1681, and settled by Irish Friends. In 1681, he joined with the Earl of Perth, William Penn, Robert Barklay, the Apologist, and other eminent personages, in the purchase of West Jersey from the estate of Sir George Carteret. About the same time his friend Penn received the grant of Pennsylvania, and Turner became actively concerned in that project, purchasing 5,000 acres of land in the Province and subscribing 500 pounds of stock in the Free Society of Traders, ... he arrived at Philadelphia, 8 Mo. 14, (sic) 1683, in the Lion of Liverpoole ... took up residence and became involved in public affairs ... .
