Re: PHILIP TURNOR (1751-1799)

Hello Shelly, Good to meet you I missed your post saying your daughter attends Trent. I used to teach English at Trent for about 10 years but am retired. In response to your question: the talk is at 6:30 for about half an hour. Then the signing. Yes, please pass on any information about the Launch o...

Re: PHILIP TURNOR (1751-1799)

Hi Kerri and Jennifer, Thanks for the input. I will take a look at the genie. Yes, I can see that editing might be a problem. I have been wondering about doing something with Wikipedia and Philip Turnor. Kerri:I do have what I think is a very interesting section on Philip's possible English family w...

Re: PHILIP TURNOR (1751-1799)

hello kprimorac, You might find my biography helpful. It will be out at the beginning of October through the University of Regina Press.

I have a christening date for Elizabeth Hallett of 2 April 1752. I discovered this at the London Metro Archives (X055/001) when I was searching for marriage records for Philip and Elizabeth. The entry reads: "Elizabeth Da [daughter] of Thomas & Eliz Hallett....born March 7". I think th...
