  e-mail from Kristina Turner on 6-16-02 I finally have the Death Cert for Joseph T. Turner He died 18 Aug 1931 in Greensboro, Guilford Co. NC. Supposedly buried in Oak Level Cem (I have not seen his stone) Data says he was age 76, b.1855 NC [1900 census says b. Oct 1853, 1880 says age 27] Informant - Mrs. W.H. Worsham .......if this is a daughter - it must be Mimi or Frances, I do not have their husbands...... His deceased wife was listed as 'Louella Oakley' - we know from their 1917 Mar Lic & her 1923 Death Cert that she was Louella O'Dell Vestal - maybe you could snoop out his OBIT ........?? Now that we have confirmed his death date - Add him to your Turner Obit Lists ! _______________________________________________________ Information from Tom McElfresh 6-19-03: The 1920 census lists Joseph & Luella Turner living with Victor Leighton, widower. Victor has a son, Wayne, age 12. The Turners are listed as Victor's parents-in-law. The 1910 census lists Victor & Bessie Layton, with son Wayne, age 2. The Laytons have been married for 3 years. The marriage license for Victor M. Layton & Bessie B. Odell (23 May 1907) lists Bessie's parents as Henry & Ella Odell. _________________________________________________________
