52. DAVID2 TURLEY (Jamesl) was born 26 December 1783, probably in Henry County, Virginia. He married about 1805 Mary (Polly), daughter of William and Mary Ribelin of Montgomery County, Kentucky. She was born 15 October 1784 in Virginia, and died 23 February 1866 in Montgomery County, Kentucky. David Turley probably died in Montgomery County, Kentucky, in 1825.

In 1795 when David Turley, the oldest son of James and Agnes Turley, was twelve he probably moved with his parents to the present Montgomery County, Kentucky. In 1804 when he was twenty-one he was first taxed in Montgomery County. He owned no land, no slaves and one horse. He continued to be taxed yearly through 1823 with the exception of 1814 and 1816. Occasionally he owned as many as four horses. He never owned slaves. Only in 1815 was David Turley taxed as a land owner. This land was described on the tax list that year as thirty acres on Harper's Creek, entered by John Barton. On 1 November 1811 David Turley sold lot 24 in Mt. Sterling, Kentucky, to Edward Roberts for $102.00. It is not known when David Turley acquired the lot or why he was not taxed on it.

David Turley was listed in the 1810 and 1820 census for Montgomery County, Kentucky. The listings and age categories for each year agree with the known structure of David and Polly Turley's family with one exception. In 1810 a male 16-26, born 1784-1794, was living in their household. This person is thought to be David's younger brother, William Turley, who was born in 1791 and who later married Polly's sister, Elizabeth Ribelin.

On 20 January 1825 David and Polly Turley, along with other heirs of William Ribelin, were ordered by the Montgomery County, Kentucky, Circuit Court to convey land on Slate Creek, a fork of the Licking River, to William Payne. The final settlement of William Ribelin's estate did not take place until 9 January 1831. Polly Turley was named as an heir.
Polly Turley received fourteen acres of land on Slate Creek as her share of her father's estate, for which she was taxed in 1825 and 1826. On 29 September 1831 she bought thirty-three acres on Slate Creek from John Ribelin and Jane, his wife. Polly Turley was taxed on this land 1829-1831. On 12 August 1840 Polly bought twelve acres, two rods, twenty-nine poles of land on Slate Creek from Samuel Shultz.

In 1830 Polly Turley was listed in the Montgomery County, Kentucky, census as the head of a household. In 1850 and 1860 she was living in Montgomery County with her son Willis Turley.

When Polly Turley died her son James Turley was executor of her estate.121 Her heirs were listed as: W. W. Payne and Elizabeth, William Turley of Illinois, D. Harrison Turley and Polly Ann McNabb of Indiana, John Turley of Missouri, Willis Turley, John Shultz, only son of her deceased daughter, Lucy Shultz, and James Turley.

In 1927 at a reunion of the descendants of Polly Turley's son, David Harrison Turley, it was said of Polly that she was "...a most estimable woman. Left with a large family of children to support, she held the reins of government in strong capable hands and with much hard labor, self denial and rigourous discipline she reared a family of good Christian men and women."

http://www.turleyfamily.net/genealogy/TurleyFamilyRecords.pdf

WILLIAM TURLEY was born 29 November 1781 either in Franklin County, Virginia, or in South Carolina. He died 4 March 1845 in Gallatin County, Kentucky. in 1813 he married Elizabeth Reiblin,194 who was born 10 January 1795 and died in 1850 or 1851 in Gallatin County, Kentucky. Elizabeth Ribelin was the daughter of William and Mary (Kiher) Ribelin and a sister of Polly Ribelin who married David Turley, brother of William Turley.

William Turley remained in Montgomery County, Kentucky, when his parents and younger brothers and sisters moved to Union County, Kentucky in 1815. On 11 December 1822 James Turley of the State of Illinois appointed his three sons, Samuel, William and John to be his attorney to sell a parcel of land for him in Montgomery County where his sons are residents. In 1814 he was first taxed in Montgomery County. Beginning in 1820 he was taxed for thirty eight acres on Slate Creek. In 1825 he was taxed for sixty-nine acres and in 1830 and 1831 for ninety-two acres. On 24 October 1835 William Turley and Elizabeth, his wife, of Montgomery County sold fifty acres on Slate Creek "where they now live," to Thomas Grubbs.

William Turley was listed in the 1820 and 1830 census for Montgomery County, Kentucky. in 1820 William, age twenty-six to forty five, had four sons under ten. In 1830 he had seven sons under fifteen and two daughters under ten.

On 27 November 1837 William Turley appeared in Gallatin County, Kentucky, records when he purchased land there from Thomas J. Lillard and Nancy, his wife, of Anderson County, Kentucky. William Turley paid $3400.00 for the tract which was 170 acres and 26 poles and was bound by Joseph Lillard and M. J. Williams. The record of this purchase does not agree with a more fanciful family tradition telling that William Turley acquired his first land in Gallatin from an Indian for a shotgun and a pony.

In the 1840 census for Gallatin County there were eight males under thirty listed in the William Turley household. One male thirty to forty was probably William listed incorrectly, as he was then forty-nine. Also listed were three females under twenty and one female forty to fifty. Six persons in the household were engaged in agriculture and one in trade.

William Turley’s will, dated 26 March 1841, was presented in the April-May session of the Gallatin County Court in 1845. The will stated that all perishables in the estate be sold immediately after his decease and that the monies be used to pay funeral expenses and depts. The farm and appurtenances were left to Elizabeth as long as she remained his widow for her support and that of the children. The estate was to be divided equally among the children after Elizbeth’s death. Will Turley appointed his sons Joseph Turley and Thomas Jefferson Turley to be his executors. Witnesses to the will were P. P. Hannah and M. J. Williams. On 7 June 1845 the executors presented an inventory to the Gallatin County Court. Included were seven horses, oxen, steers, cows, a hog, calves, sheep and a Jack, as well as household goods and farm equipment. A sale was held 18 June 1845. Final settlement was made 10 April 1848.

The 1850 census of Gallatin County, Kentucky, listed Elizabeth Turley, age fifty-five, as the head of a household, Her property was valued at $5,000.00. Living with her were John M. Turley and five younger children, two of whom had attended school during the year past. Nearby were living Elizabeth Turley's older children and their families.

Evidently Elizabeth Turley died soon after the 1850 census was taken. On 8 February 1851 Thomas J. Turley and Artemesia, his wife, entered into an indenture with Joseph Turley where for $386.00 they released their entire claim in a certain tract of land in Gallatin County. The tract was described as "The same tract of land conveyed to William Turley dec. in his lifetime by Thos. J. Lillard and containing 170 acres and 26 poles."

Another indenture was made 8 March 1851 between M. J. Williams and Martha Jane his wife, B. F. Turley and Mary Ann his wife, John M. Turley, James H. Turley, Mary Turley, William Turley and Nancy his wife, all of Gallatin County, and Joseph Turley wherein Joseph Turley purchased from the others their interest in the farm lately owned by William Turley, deceased. Joseph Turley paid $400.00 to each of his brothers and sisters. A graveyard which was to be ten feet wide and parallel to the garden fence to the Warsaw road was excepted in the deed. In 1853 Joseph Turley gave an inventory in court in Gallatin County as guardian of Peter Turley and Samuel Turley, minor sons of William Turley, deceased. Included for each was interest due on 1/11 of a tract of land near Napoleon, Kentucky, containing 170 acres. On 25 March 1856 Peter Turley sold to Joseph Turley his right to an interest in land he had inherited from William Turley for $420.00 and for $45.00 the share he had inherited from his sister, Lucy Ann, deceased.

The original property remains in the hands of descendants of Joseph Turley in 1978.

WILLIAM TURLEY was born 29 November 1781 either in Franklin County, Virginia, or in South Carolina.192 He died 4 March 1845 in Gallatin County, Kentucky.in 1813 he married Elizabeth Reiblin, who was born 10 January 1795 and died in 1850 or 1851 in Gallatin County, Kentucky. Elizabeth Ribelin was the daughter of William and Mary (Kiher) Ribelin and a sister of Polly Ribelin who married David Turley, brother of William Turley.

William Turley remained in Montgomery County, Kentucky, when his parents and younger brothers and sisters moved to Union County, Kentucky in 1815. On 11 December 1822 James Turley of the State of Illinois appointed his three sons, Samuel, William and John to be his attorney to sell a parcel of land for him in Montgomery County where his sons are residents. in 1814 he was first taxed in Montgomery County. Beginning in 1820 he was taxed for thirty eight acres on Slate Creek. In 1825 he was taxed for sixty-nine acres and in 1830 and 1831 for ninety-two acres. On 24 October 1835 William Turley and Elizabeth, his wife, of Montgomery County sold fifty acres on Slate Creek "where they now live," to Thomas Grubbs,

William Turley was listed in the 1820 and 1830 census for Montgomery County, Kentucky. in 1820 William, age twenty-six to forty five, had four sons under ten. In 1830 he had seven sons under fifteen and two daughters under ten.

On 27 November 1837 William Turley appeared in Gallatin County, Kentucky, records when he purchased land there from Thomas J. Lillard and Nancy, his wife, of Anderson County, Kentucky. William Turley paid $3400.00 for the tract which was 170 acres and 26 poles and was bound by Joseph Lillard and M. J. Williams. The record of this purchase does not agree with a more fanciful family tradition telling that William Turley acquired his first land in Gallatin from an Indian for a shotgun and a pony.

In the 1840 census for Gallatin County there were eight males under thirty listed in the William Turley household. One male thirty to forty was probably William listed incorrectly, as he was then forty-nine. Also listed were three females under twenty and one female forty to fifty. Six persons in the household were engaged in agriculture and one in trade.

William Turley’s will, dated 26 March 1841, was presented in the April-May session of the Gallatin County Court in 1845. The will stated that all perishables in the estate be sold immediately after his decease and that the monies be used to pay funeral expenses and depts. The farm and appurtenances were left to Elizabeth as long as she remained his widow for her support and that of the children. The estate was to be divided equally among the children after Elizbeth’s death. Will Turley appointed his sons Joseph Turley and Thomas Jefferson Turley to be his executors. Witnesses to the will were P. P. Hannah and M. J. Williams. On 7 June 1845 the executors presented an inventory to the Gallatin County Court. Included were seven horses, oxen, steers, cows, a hog, calves, sheep and a Jack, as well as household goods and farm equipment. A sale was held 18 June 1845. Final settlement was made 10 April 1848.

The 1850 census of Gallatin County, Kentucky, listed Elizabeth Turley, age fifty-five, as the head of a household, Her property was valued at $5,000.00. Living with her were John M. Turley and five younger children, two of whom had attended school during the year past. Nearby were living Elizabeth Turley's older children and their families.

Evidently Elizabeth Turley died soon after the 1850 census was taken. On 8 February 1851 Thomas J. Turley and Artemesia, his wife, entered into an indenture with Joseph Turley where for $386.00 they released their entire claim in a certain tract of land in Gallatin County. The tract was described as "The same tract of land conveyed to William Turley dec. in his lifetime by Thos. J. Lillard and containing 170 acres and 26 poles."

Another indenture was made 8 March 1851 between M. J. Williams and Martha Jane his wife, B. F. Turley and Mary Ann his wife, John M. Turley, James H. Turley, Mary Turley, William Turley and Nancy his wife, all of Gallatin County, and Joseph Turley wherein Joseph Turley purchased from the others their interest in the farm lately owned by William Turley, deceased. Joseph Turley paid $400.00 to each of his brothers and sisters. A graveyard which was to be ten feet wide and parallel to the garden fence to the Warsaw road was excepted in the deed.

11524 Turley Reunion
The Seventh Annual Turley Reunion was held Sunday, September 4, 1927 at the beautiful country home of Mrs. Rose Watson. The following family history was written and read by Mrs. Watson.
David Harrison, son of David and Polly Ribelin Turley, was born August 31, 1815 in Montgomery County, Kentucky, near Mt. Sterling. Left with a large family of children to support, she held the reins of government in strong capable hands and with much hard labor, self denial, and rigorous discipline, she reared a family of good Christian men and women.
He was a saddler by trade, making and trimming the saddles in wonderful geometric designs to meet the designs of the times. He united with and was baptized into the old Christian Church at Corinth, Kentucky when he was 17 years old.
At the age of 23 with two brothers, William and John, he started out to seek his fortune. His sister, Polly Ann, had married Thomas McNabb and moved to Indiana. He came to her home in Morgan County, his brothers located and making homes. William in Illinois and John in Missouri. In a short time he met and wooed Elizabeth McNabb to whom he was married July 12, 1838.
For several years they lived on a forty acre farm inherited by his wife, where most of their family of eight children were born. The children were Sarah Jane, Rebecca, John, Mary Elizabeth, Andrew J., David H., Martha, and Margaret Alice. He then bought the farm of 136 acres of Daniel Vert and moved into the log house standing on it. Here Elizbeth died October 24, 1855, and the motherless family struggled on until January 8, 1857 when he married Susan Virginia House.
He must have had a wonderful personality, when I think how he, a widower of 41 years with a family of 8 children, ranging from 15 years to a few months in age, could win the heart of a 19 year old girl, and hold it all through the succeeding years of their life together. To gain her parent’s consent to the marriage of their youngest child, I am amazed and wonder how he did it. Nevertheless it was accomplished and another family of children was added to the first.
Jane married, but Cora came to fill her place, then came Colona, whom we always called Joe, Honors, Leora, Katherine and Rose. And finally the long looked for son, Willis, whom everyone called “Brother”. Sometime after the second marriage the brick house was built and the family moved in, and from that time on, this house was a center of hospitality in the neighborhood.
Some years after coming to Indiana he changed his membership to the church called “Friendship”, where he and his family worshipped and he served as a Deacon until October 28, 1888, when they came to Mt. Gilead. His home was always open to the ministers of both churches and Family Prayer and Grace at meals were regular institutions for several years before his death.
He was very quiet self contained man. Just twice in my life did I see him give way to emotion. Once when his favorite brother, John, died very suddenly at his home in Missouri and the other when my little seven year old brother, the only son of his second marriage and the pride and hope of his old age, was taken away. He was very temperate in all things. His maxim was to always leave the table when a little hungry and I never knew him to suffer from indigestion, and at the time of his death his hearing was good. He used glasses only to read and he was the proud possessor of all of his teeth but one.
I have heard him tell how when he was a boy, whiskey was place on the table.

11535 Two Killed By Streamlined Train
William C. Wise and Ernest L. McClanahan Meet Instant Death While Working on Underpass.
William C. Wise, 54, of near Weisburg, and Ernest L. McClanahan, 45, of near Wrights Corner, were killed instantly yesterday morning at 7:23 o'clock, near the Indiana-Ohio state line, where the new underpass for U.S. road 50 is under construction.
Both men were employed by the contractor doing the work, Robert H. King of Danville. They were in a truck and driving across the New York Central double tracks going north from the bottoms. A fast freight, No.87 eastbound, had just passed when the truck was driven onto the tracks. Evidently the men did not see the James WHitcomb Riley streamlined train approaching from the east, for they drove directly in front of it.
Section men working on the run around tracks, which were laid recently, saw their danger and shouted to the men but evidently were not heard.
McClanahan's body was carried about 50 ft., and Wise's about 400 ft. The latter's was badly mangled. The '35 Ford V-Eight truck was demolished.
Coroner Harry T. Moon was called to the scene and the bodies were removed to Fitch Bros. funeral home. This was the first accident for the new streamlined train, which had been put in service just one month ago to the day.
Run-around double tracks have been laid at this point recently so that the main tracks of the New York Central and fill could be cut through for the underpass construction. The cut was made during the past five days.
Wise is survived by a wife and four children, Paul, Albert Edward, Charles, and Sarah Louise.
McClanahan is survived by a wife and two children, Dale and Allen. He also leaves two brothers, Lem and Joe of Williamstown, Ky.
Mr. McClanahan, whose maiden name was Leffler, is a sister of Mrs. Louis Hanson, Mrs. Sadie Mason, Mrs. Sherman Martin, Mrs. Alma Rosenbaum and Elmer Leffler.
The streamlined train was in charge of the conductor well known in this community, J.G. (Brownie) Burgess of Indianapolis.

Wililams King near Marceline
At 10:30 o’clock this (Thursday) morning, the body of Alonzo M. Cassity was found handing in his barn at his home in Purdin, 5 miles north of here. He was in the restaurant business, and had been in his place only 30 minutes before the sad event.
His health had been somewhat poorly of late, but aside from that it is not known what caused him to take his life. The deed was done with a rope which he tied about his neck and then dropped out of the barn loft. He leaves a wife and two sons, Rolla and Alfred.

11539 Two Tots Burned to Death In Fire Near Morehead
Family Trapped In Two-Story Frame House
Four Other Persons Suffer Serious Injuries In Blaze
Morehead, Ky., June 27 (Special) – Two small children were burned to death and four other persons, suffering from serious burns and injuries were being rushed to Lexington hospital early this morning as a result of a fire which trapped a family in a two-story frame house at midnight Friday at Bluestone, Ky., eight miles from Morehead.
The dead were Glennis Wayne Gilkison, 5, and Mary Louis Montz, 2.
Seriously injured were John Gilkison, 50; his wife, Blanche, 44; Recleu Gilkison, a son and father of Glennis Wayne, and Fred c. Gilkison, a son.
Mrs. Roxy Montz, mother of Mary Lou, who was said to have been in a Lexington hospital for two months, knew nothing of the disaster.
The blaze, which was though to have been caused by a discarded lighted cigarette, started in the kitchen of the home, shortly after Fred Gilkison returned from a hunting trip.
Escape for the family was cut off when the fire, spreading quickly, swept into a stairway which led into the kitchen.
Members of the family after several unsuccessful attempts to make an exit through the kitchen, were forced to leap from the second-story windows. Already severely burned, witnesses said that those who escaped the flaming structure suffered additional injuries when they leaped to safety.
Repeated efforts by members of the family to rescue the two small children were unsuccessful as flames swept the upstairs bedroom in which they were sleeping.
Scores of residents of the tiny village who were attracted to the scene of the fire attempted to aid in the rescue, but were driven back by the intense heat.
