John Turner & Martha Hall married 1867 in Disley Cheshire had 9 children, two died very young.

How can I easily find the children of John's & Martha's Leonard , Arthur & Frank, & from daughters Ada, Ethel & Florence?

Thanks so much

This is apparently about the same person as your other post:

http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards.asp?wci=thread&tk=1217747

and it makes no sense to have two posts about him and his family, risking different people spending time doing the same research. (The same censuses etc. will be needed for all family members.)

Hello Janey, My other question was with regard to the Ardern connection, my Grandmother Eva's parents Robert , his wife ?? & their roots.Also I wanted to trace Eva's brother & sister. It just happened that the kind volunteer helpers began by researching Eva & they went down the path of her descendants through marriage & into the Turner family. This was not what I'd intended but I appreciate their time & trouble.

This is a request for help with John & Martha Turner's Grandchildren, ie the children of Arthur, Frank, Ada Ethel & Florence.

No, Pauline, the post I referred to was about "John Turner, of Hayfield, Derbyshire born 3.1.1836 was my Great Grandfather" in which you now have Derek on the case.

I'm aware you also have duplicate threads about the Arderns.

As I said, it is not fair to spread threads around, one about Mr X, one about his children, etc. The same research will be done for each question -- the censuses where the family appear together, etc.

It makes far more sense, from both your point of view and the point of view of people trying to help, to have all relevant information in one thread.
