TURTON family

[Sarah]

Hi there,
I'm trying to find out information about the TURTON family. I have some of them as living in Basses Row, Castle Gresley in 1881, some of the next generation lived in Linton Heath.

So far I know of Thomas Turton born 1848, he married Eliza Holmes and I have names/dates for their children.
His father was John Turton who married Maud Swain - I have no date or other information for him. Any information would be very much appreciated!


Also researching SUMMERS and DAWES families from this around this area.

Hi, Had a look on Ancestry at other public trees,and found a few.John Turton may have called himself Job.There is a marriage between a Job Turton and Maud Swain in 1847 in Kidderminster,cannot find any other marriages with these surnames.It appears He may have been born in Sheffield,but was a journeyman and carpenter so could explain his travels.Only one child found,Thomas who seems to have been brought up by His Grandmother.Hope this may have helped to continue your search.
