We do not know the parents of Mary Turner, but she had a brother, namenotknown , killed in the Revolution who had a son John, and this Johnnamed a son Marmadu ke.
This was the name of the Turner who came to Virginia as an immigrant fromL ondon in 1635.
It seems probably that the immigrant was the progenitor of the Turnerfamily living in Union District, South Carolina in the 1770's.
Mary had a sister and at least three brothers, all born in Virginia.
The sister, Susann ah, married Martin Hammond who served in the Revolutionin Brandon's Regiment wi th several Trammell boys, including Thomas, andseveral Turners.
Actually, ther e were four Hammonds, five Trammells and six Turners inBrandon's Regiment....

Through Jesus's love
And Gladly receiving
A kingdom above."
