Biography

Frank Turner was born about 1900 in Ohio age 10 on the 1910 census, not found on the 1900 census.1 He married Mary Windle, daughter of Robert Windle and Sarah Livingston, on 20 October 1921 in Madison Co., OH. Frank Turner died in 1951. He was buried in 1951 in Range Twp. Cemetery, Midway, Madison Co., OH, Find A Grave Memorial# 134456329. A Mary S. Turner, born 1899 and died 1968 is buried beside him and they share a headstone. Since his wife Mary Windle was using the Snyder surname as of the 1946 marriage record for their daughter Adeline Rose Turner, one would not expect that his wife who died in 1968 would have been the same individual, but a death record for Mary Windle (Turner)(Snyder) has not been found.

Note: Elmer appears to have been raised by his grandparents, John and Rilla Clifton. In the 1910 census, he is listed as their son, age 6, but Rilla was already 54 years old so that is most unlikely. In the 1920 census, he is listed as their grandson, age 15. In the 1910 census, John and Rilla reported 11 children born to the marriage, 10 living as of the census. DLB 2017.
