Turner family Whitby

[Martin Turner]

Hi all,

I'm researching a branch of the Turner family of Whitby. My connection is through my father, Eustace Forth Turner, born in 1921 in Whitby, who, with his parents (Frank Turner, born 1891, Whitby and Mary Gibson Turner, nee Lawson, born 1892, West Hartlepool; married 1917) and sister, Joan born 1919 migrated to Adelaide, South Australia in 1926.

Frank was the youngest of 12 - Robert Forth 1867-1941; John 1868-?; Alice 1870-?; Margaret 1872-? William Forth 1874-?; Mary 1876-?; Jane Douglass 1878-1941; Annie 1879-1882; Hilda 1882-1940 and another Annie 1886-1979 (also migrated to Adelaide, pre 1925, married 1924 in Adelaide to her first cousin Robert Forth Stephenson, born 1894 Whitby-1967)

Frank's parents were John Wilkinson Turner, 1843-1901 a painter and Mary Turner nee Forth, c1847-1925?

If anyone is able to provide any information regarding my ancestors that would be very much appreciated.

Regards

Martin
