Re: WHITE BEAR aka TURNER (1780-1844)
Gary, Do you have any history of John Turner, the sloop master? There is little information on the HBC sheet for him. Thank you again, Pam

Re: WHITE BEAR aka TURNER (1780-1844)
Further to my post on 12th September about the family of WHITE BEAR, I'm going to throw a spanner in the works. I have been in touch with a descendant of Hannah Turner who married Thomas Umphreville/Humphreyville, son of Edward Umfreville about 1805. He believes, from a reliable source, that Hannah ...

Re: WHITE BEAR aka TURNER (1780-1844)
Gary, The Manitoba Legislative Library hold the Census Index and only a few entries are given without cost. Hudson Bay Archives hold the originals. As each member of the family is a separate entry, it's difficult to record here. I have requested the originals from the HBC Archives, but I'm not expec...

Re: WHITE BEAR aka TURNER (1780-1844)
A postscript to my earlier post. To identify this family, you need to know they took the surname BEAR e.g. William BEAR, White BEAR, John BEAR etc etc Thank you, Pam

Re: WHITE BEAR aka TURNER (1780-1844)
Gary, For some time I have been trying to piece together the family of Wapusk/White Bear maybe aka John Turnor (1780-1844) as I am a descendant. This is how I see the family now. If John Turnor was born in 1780 (others say 1775) at York Factory, he could well be the first son of Philip Turnor. (Phli...

Re: WHITE BEAR aka TURNER (1780-1844)
Thank you Gary for your information about Wapusk aka White Bear. I've now found he was baptised in 1832 by Rev David Jones and buried in 1844 by Rev Smithurst. Elizabeth who married James Asham and two of her brothers (probably William was one) would have accompanied Wapusk and his (one) wife to Red...

Then there is Hannah Turner, daughter of Joseph and Emma Turner born in 1806, who also married Th...
